MY HUSBAND THOUGHT I WAS Asleep AND HE ADMITTED A PAINFUL SECRET TO ME
It was almost midnight when I slowly lay down in bed. I had come from a long day at work and my body was almost weak. Adrian, my husband, was on the other side of the bed, still reading an email on his cellphone. I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep, thinking that maybe he would hug me like before.
But only a few minutes had passed, when I heard him take a deep breath. I thought he was just going to come down to get a drink of water, but instead he spoke—weakly, almost in a whisper.
“Lord… I don’t know how to solve this. I don’t want to hurt Mia but I’m scared.”
A coldness ran through my chest. I was Mia. And why did he feel like he was hiding something about me?
I felt it even more. He thought I was asleep so he continued.
“If I confess to Mia… I might lose her. But it would be wrong if I let this go on.”
