Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M

want me to get my fairytale ending and they believe that will only happen with Rowan. Why couldn’t they understand that just
because they want him to love me doesn’t
make it a reality?
Sure, Rowan was acting differently, but I believe it’s just a phase. Men like what they can’t have. He wants me now because he
can’t have me. Soon enough he’ll get bored of the chase and go back to his true love. If I give in I’ll be left in another load of
heartbreak after he realizes I am not what he wants.
“Let’s just focus on what we came here for” I tell them after silence descends on us.

world. Which in my opinion is way better than the stuck up people who surround us.

Letty pulls Corrine up, while I stand up.
“What if I get food poisoning? I heard that such restaurants aren’t entirely hygienic when they handle food.” Corrine complains as
she tries to wiggle out of Letty’s grasp.
“So what? You’ll get a bad case of diarrhea and after a few days of pooping your intestines

I was contemplating on how thankful I am for having such friends, when her bitter voice kills every single
joy I was feeling.
“Look what we have here? It’s the pregnant whore”
I turn to my side to find Christine staring at me with nothing but hatred in her eyes.
enough, Emma was standing right next to her.
As if that wasn’t
I close my eyes and let out a breath while wondering why the hell did god hate me so much,
