PAINFUL MARRIAGE 3
Selena's POV
I distracted myself with painting in the library. I did not even try to leave the mansion because Emerson would get angry again. I sighed at I stared at the finished painting I currently paint. It's Emerson in his business suit, no smiles, just a serious look in front of the camera. I secretly took a picture of him then and I have been hiding it for a long time.
I left the library late at night. I enjoyed reading a book and I was happy because I finished it in just one day. All I have to do is paint, read, clean and cook here inside our mansion. I have long dreamed of going around the hacienda but Emerson would not let me. When I first tried that he was furious and he slapped me.
I helped cook dinner with Aunt Nila. She even scolded me and told me to just wait but because I really wanted to help he did not stop me. Emerson was not here yet, ten o'clock at night is the time he always came home. We did not eat together, every time I woke up he was gone. I know he doesn't want to be with me so he drowns himself at work.
After eating I went up to the master's bedroom. I stared at the painting of Emerson's face on the bed. I will keep it, in my closet so he can not see. I sighed and stared at the ceiling.
When will I be granted from the man above for my requests? Hopefully, Emerson will change. Hopefully, he won't hurt me again. Hopefully, he will see my value. Hopefully, he will love me too.
During the two years Emerson and I were together, we had no happy memories. That hurts a lot, for my part. We'll just lay in bed when we're done doing that thing.
I woke up due to the noise I could hear from the opposite room of the master's bedroom. I know that's where the noise comes from because that's where Emerson sleeps. I also know that he is doing a miracle again with his woman. It's always like that, I just put up with it and cry quietly because I can't do anything. I'm just a wife in paper. Never once considered a wife, not loved.
