Chapter 5 - You’re useless

Haru awakes to a soft knocking. She gets up and walks quietly down the hall past the kitchen to the front door. She looks through the peeping hole and opens the door.

Hiro was smiling his cute soft smile with his eyes that could make any girl melt just by looking at them. "I brought back your clothes all clean and dry...So how are you feeling today?"

"I'm feeling a little better than yesterday. Thanks for asking" Haru smiled at him. Even though she was smiling on the outside he could see right through her and knew that there was hurt behind her beautiful smile.

"Wait..." Haru sounded a bit confused

"what are you doing here so early?"

"Oh I was um on my way to work and you were on the way there so I thought I'd stop by." Hiro stuttered and then gave his dashing smile.

"but we live one floor above you..."

Hiro began to sweat "Ha Ha okay you got me. It's my day off today surprisingly and I thought I'd take you around? Get you out of the house and your mind off of all of this crazy toxicity?"

"I would really like that. My mind has been running in circles ever since this whole thing happened and I don't think I wanna be alone today."

"Alright it's settled then where do you want to go I'll take you."

"I want to go to a judiciary building and get divorce papers."

Hiro was shocked. He just wanted to take her out to have fun and get her mind off of this trouble. He was not at all prepared to hear her request.

"Haru are you sure that this is what you really want to do?"

Haru looked at Hiro with determination and a hint of sadness. "Yes without a doubt. I cannot just stay in the house for the rest of my life and I cannot live in constant fear of losing my husband to someone else. I can't live with jealousy in my heart forever it's not healthy. Everyone deserves to be happy... I deserve to be happy too."

Hiro frowned " Okay if you are ABSOLUTELY sure that you want to do this then I will support you and we can go and get this done." he smiled softly.

" Thank you, Hiro for everything. I really appreciate it."

Hiro smiled softly "Don't worry about it. I will support you and be with you every step of the way.

......

Outside of Haru's apartment...

Hiro and Haru are standing by the door " Haru you go in and I'll stay here out of sight. Go and settle everything I'll be here when you finish." "Okay... Thank you, Hiro. I'll try to be quick."

Kiba paces back and forth in the living room "Where the hell is that woman" He curses to himself

suddenly the door unlocks *click and slowly opens. He runs to the door to see Haru standing in the doorway. He immediately grabs her arm and tries to hug her. She quickly shoves him away.

With hurt in his eyes he snaps "What the hell Haru why are you being like this? I've been worried sick about you. You run out and I have no idea where you are. Then you come back and act like this? I was about to call the cops to go looking for you!" Kiba shouted.

Haru looked at him with disgust. "Why were you worried about me anyway? I clearly remember you saying that you didn't want to come home. Didn't you have your side chick to keep you company?" Haru snapped.

"Not this again" Kiba scoffed.

"Kiba I can't do this anymore! Why am I not enough for you? why do you need all of these girls around you? Am I not pretty enough? Am I not good enough for you?" And don't you DARE say that I am because you lie so much you don't even know what the truth is. If I was enough I wouldn't have to deal with those whores you like to play with!"

"I've already made up my mind and picked up the divorce papers. Sign them so I can get the hell out of here and stop wasting my time with you."

"Why are you doing this? If I didn''t love you I wouldn't even come home to you at all!" Kiba scoffed.

"You can come home but that doesn't mean you love me. You also just contradicted your damn self by saying you wouldn't come home if you didn't love me when you clearly wrote to your friend that you didn't want to come home. Kiba this isn't the first time you've done this. I've forgiven you so many times I've had enough! When will you ever stop? why won't you stop? Do you like the thrill or something?" Haru shouted back with tears threatening to fall from her eyes. She didn't want to cry in front of her loser of a husband but she couldn't help but sniffle and as she did he rolled his eyes at her.

Kiba's eyes darkened and his expression became sinister. "Why are you doing this? Really? You are so stupid. Who is going to want you after you leave? all used up no job and completely useless!"

Haru's fists began to tighten her tears began to flow thinking about how useless she really was.

Behind the door Hiro heard everything and couldn't contain his anger any Longer 'this guy is a total douche what the hell is wrong with him' He thought to himself and without a second thought he walked through the door put his arm around Haru "I would want her" as he stated he stared down the jerk.
