Chapter 27- Ending the Affair

Austin Jr. arrived home and met Madison on the sofa. She had fallen asleep waiting for him. He looked at her feeling his heart grow weary and heavy. He loved her so much and knew they needed to deal with their issues. Austin placed a blanket over her and took a shower. When he returned from the shower, he met Madison sitting on the bed.

“How was your day?” she asked watching him carefully.

“It was okay,” he said.

“Are you ready to talk?” she asked.

“No Madison. There is nothing to talk about,” Austin Jr. said getting dressed.

“Austin, we can’t keep going through the motions. We are both hurting and need to hash things out,” Madison said pacing the room.

Austin ran his finger through his hair not prepared for this discussion.

“Why are you so angry? What have I done? Do you even want this marriage?” she asked sitting next to him.
