Brent hurried to his car in the garage when this thought struck his mind, "If she comes and sees the car, she might turn tail and run."
He quickly moved the car to the back of the apartment and then returned inside.
Opening his briefcase, he took out her mail, at that moment he was tempted also curious to know who the mail was from and wanted to open it but held back. "I must trust her, the way she is angry with me if she finds her mail open she might explode."
Just thinking of her becoming furious with the current situation he rested it on the table.
Time seemed to fly but he had no choice if he wanted to see her. Having no choice he waits patiently for her return, not knowing what her next move will be.
He wanted to fix her a meal but didn't want to alert her, so he sat quietly in the dark kitchen. But the nagging thought of her leaving never left his mind, it even put fear in my heart.
"Oh God how could I be so stupid, seeing her get the letter from Mark, drove a rage through my heart.
"Now her bag is packed and she wants nothing to do with me. When I thought not allowing her into my office would heal the way I was hurting, it worsened the situation. Knowing she was still heartbroken about Mark when I married her, I should have known better.
"All the time we had spent with each other she never really told me she loved me, it was only in joke. Oh God, what can I do to stop her from leaving? She is hurting and I am hurting. I don't want to worsen the situation, so please put words in my mouth and soothe her heart. I love her very much, but with how she feels now, my words might be deaf to her ear. Lord, please help me."
When he heard the door open, he felt his heart jolted. he wasn't even aware he was crying, wiping his face quickly, "Oh God she is home, thank you for bringing her home safely"
A few minutes later hearing her groan so pitiful as though she was in great pain, Brent continued sitting silently not wanting to scare her.
When he heard her speak, "Why did this have to happen to me now? How could I be so stupid, I keep getting myself into more trouble?"
Listening to how she was abusing herself but he continued sitting quietly. "I am sure she thinks she is all alone."
When she started crying and praying, I listened, "Lord Jesus, I am so tired, I had tried my best, to be the best I can, but with every turn I make I am caught in some snare of Satan, now this, what can I do, I cannot deprive him of this but he doesn't care for me, Lord.
Just show me what to do now, show me where my next turn should be. And tell me Lord, why do men have to constantly be lying? Don't they know that You have given them the authority, so why do they choose to do the wrong? They tell you one thing and they do another, but Lord, I trusted Brent with all my heart, I really thought he was different from the others, how could he deceive me? How could he lie so blatantly without any remorse in his heart?"
Tearing up the letter, "I must leave this place before anyone gets to know about us, no one must know about our marriage."
Unable to bear her crying any longer Brent stood up and went to her, stooping before her, " Sweetheart, I am so, so very sorry for hurting you, I can't recall where I went wrong or when I lied to you, but I am sorry, tell me and I will mend my ways but I beg you please don't leave me. If you don't want me to come to the apartment it's okay, also, if you don't want to go to work I won't mind, I will support you but please don't leave me I beg you."
"Stop lying to me, I have heard enough and I hate it."
Brent was stunned by her response, wanting desperately to enlighten her he said, "Sweetheart I am not, from the first moment I kissed you, I fell in love, I know it might sound crazy but it is the truth."
