Agnes was tired of waiting for John. Today was supposed to be their 3 months anniversary. She stood up from her favorite seat in the sitting room where she had been seated for the past 2 hours staring at the door. She had wished he meant his words when he said he was going to clear all his schedule for today and come home early. She knew he was ambitious, he had got his eyes fixated on the CEO position and would do anything to get there even if it means working late
Tears flowed down her cheek to caress her chisel jaw as she took her phone to dial his number the 10th time.
Answering machine again! She said sobbing.
I deserve more. I should be of his priority, I am his wife and deserved to be treated as one.
