Finally Healing

Milo was there when I woke up. I felt pain everywhere. Every part of my body ached and my head pounded like it was going to explode. But all that didn't matter when I saw Milo.

He brought flowers and a teddy bear that he encouraged me to hug in the hospital bed.

"Milo, I'm not ten. I'm a grown woman." I insisted.

"I know you sleep with a doll when I'm not around. I thought it would comfort you."

"It's not a doll, it's a plushy."

Seeing the confusion on his face made me laugh. He may have acted tough but he was nothing but a big softie.

"I'm sorry Ivan found out that I'm your mistress. I never intended for him to know. God, I should have never gone to that party."

"What happened at that party?" He asked. He didn't seem to care that Ivan had found out about our union.
