The Untameable Leon

CHAPTER 2: WORTHLESS

They didn't even notice me opening the door and even my presence that's why they still continued what they were doing.

Even though I am feeling weak and my eyes are already blurry because of my tears, I still managed to move and get the flower vase that is just near me.

I didn't waste any more time and I quickly and angrily threw it against the wall on the side of the bed and because of what I did, they suddenly stopped and I finally got their fucking attention.

They turned in my direction at the same time. I fully thought that they would be surprised to see me at the door, especially my wife whom I expected to be scared and nervous because I just caught her cheating on me with another man but the opposite happened.

I could clearly see the anger in my wife's eyes right now while she glared at me as she wrapped the comforter around her naked body while she was still on top of the man whom I know is the son of the Governor here in our province.

He was grinning at me which made me even angrier. I was already breathing so fast while my fists were clenched as I am controlling myself not to be violent in front of my wife.

My tears fell quickly when I just heard what my beloved wife said.

"What the hell are you doing here, Leon?! Why didn't you even let me know that you were coming home, huh?! You disturbed us from what we were doing!" she said furiously which made me stunned and made my heart ache even more.

Just wow! I couldn't believe the words that just came out of... my own wife's mouth.

Baby, it's our wedding anniversary...

"Get out now, Leon! You can do your drama later when we are already done here!" she added.

I spent a few seconds first to calm myself before I spoke and look straight into her eyes even though I can't breathe properly anymore.

"Do you hear what you are saying, Crizelda? Do you hear what you are saying right now to your own husband? Husband. I am your fucking husband, Crizelda, maybe you forgot, and what are you two doing is a devil act because you are already married. You are married to me and you shouldn't be doing this," I said with a stern and controlled voice as I don't want to shout at her because I have never yelled at her since then even though I feel so much anger right now.

Her voice quickly echoed throughout the room as she began to laugh sarcastically right after I spoke.

"Husband?!" she exclaimed without humor. "Tell me, Leon. When was the last time you became husband to me, huh?! When?!"

I couldn't speak. I just stared at her angry face as I also asked myself when was the last time I made love to her...

"Months ago right?! Right?! Because all you do is work! Work! Your fucking stupid work! You didn't even think that I also have needs that you should give because you are my husband!" she added with gritted teeth.

"Crizelda, I know you know that I am working so hard so that I can give you all the material things you want. I endured everything. I endured being away from you to earn money and buy everything you want. I put up with all the hardships in my work just for you, to make you happy even though I want so badly to just be with you and now, I will know that you didn't even appreciate all my efforts and sacrifices for you? Despite everything, this is what you will repay me for?" I said weakly as I am moving my eyes from her and from the Governor's son that is still smirking at me. "I love you so much more than anything, Crizelda. Even more than my fucking life. I know you know that and never in my wildest dream would I have thought you would do this to me... your own husband after years of being together," I added.

I could clearly see the anger growing on her face from where I am standing.

"Stop already with your drama, Leon! Just accept the fact that you are stupid! That you are a worthless husband who can't even afford to buy what his wife wants and can't provide his wife's sexual needs!" she said furiously as if she really meant it.

I feel so much pain right now because of the words coming out of her mouth. I really can't believe what is happening right now. And even though I almost died from the pain I am feeling right now inside my chest from where I was standing, I still forced myself to speak.

"I know I have shortcomings, Crizelda, but I also know that I never failed to make you feel that I love you every day, even though we are often far apart because of my work. Even if I have shortcomings, it has never been right to find someone else just to fulfill your needs, especially since you are already a married woman. I hope you at least respect me. You even bring your other man right here in our own home, Crizelda. Our own fucking home," I said sternly as I am still controlling myself not to shout at her.

And while I am staring at her right now, I can no longer recognize the Crizelda, my wife, that I loved and married before.

"Could you already stop saying nonsense things, Leon?! You are still a stupid and worthless husband to me no matter what you say and what you do! You should even be thankful to me because I am doing this kind of thing right here inside our house and not outside! I really regret marrying you! I wish I never met you!" she added which made my heart break more into pieces.

Nothing hurts more than knowing that the person you want to be with for the rest of your life regrets meeting and marrying you...

"Crizelda, just talk to that useless man later and finish what we started. I'm still horny as fuck, hmm," the man under my wife said sensually and because the whole surroundings were quiet, it didn't escape my ears which made me finally cut the patience that I have been holding on just so that I don't become violent in front of my wife despite her cheating on me.

"Fuck you!" I said angrily as I started running towards him and I was about to punch him already when Crizelda blocked my way and pushed me with all her strength. And because I was stronger than her, her push only made me take a step back.

"Try to hurt him, Leon, and we won't hesitate to put you in jail right now! You know how powerful he is for being the Governor's son! He can easily put you in jail if I want to and you will never win over him because you are nowhere near him, Leon, so get the fuck out of here and let us finish what we are doing!" she shouted as she was shielding her other man from me.

I feel like I'm about to go crazy right now because of what's happening. I also feel like I just want to die right now right here just to end the pain that I'm feeling as I see my wife right now with his other man.

She is the one who cheated on me, her own husband, but she still has the guts to be angry with me! Fuck!

I just laughed sarcastically at her after she spoke because I could no longer believe what she said.

"You are the one who cheated on me, Crizelda, yet you still have the nerve to be angry at me just because I interrupt you and your bastard with your animal act in our own fucking bed?" I said amazingly while I am still controlling my anger. "Get that guy out of our house now, Crizelda, before I can do something to him," I added as my jaw clenched.

"I should be the only one to be angry here because you are the only one to blame for why all this happened to us, Leon! You think if you are not a useless husband, I won't look for someone else, huh?! Not, right?! If you weren't like that, this wouldn't have happened that's why don't you ever question me again! We are not also afraid of you! You are not rich and powerful as Miguel, that's why no matter what you threaten us with, we will never be moved! You better leave now, Leon, before we do something to you!" she said proudly while she was holding the comforter that was covering her body.

My breathing became faster as Crizelda spoke because my anger was really already so intense.

Every word that comes out of her mouth seems to kill me little by little, especially when she compares me to his other man.

I know that I am not rich and powerful as that bastard Miguel but I am sure that I am doing everything just so that we can have a good life. And even though I am not that rich, I can say that my love for her is true.

"Oh, before I forgot... here, take this with you before you leave and make sure you don't come back here and disturb us again. We're done, Leon, and still, I want to thank you for everything even though you have become a worthless husband," she said with boredom now as if what is happening right now is not important and serious while she was handing me some papers that she got from the bedside table.

I looked back and forth from her and to the papers that she was handing me while there was wonder in my mind.

What is that?

"Hurry up, Leon, and get it now! My hand is already hurting!" she said irritatedly.

I slowly raised my right hand to accept it while still not losing the anger in my system.

When I finally got it from her, I quickly read it and as I read the contents of those papers, I was quickly and immediately enveloped with fear while my hands were already shaking.
