His Bedwarmer’s Wife

“How’s everything, Hunter?” she asked me then got some wine.

I just stared at her not knowing what to say. I didn’t expect that we would meet here.

“Hey, Hunter Hailey asks if how are you?” Hera laughed and tapped me so I looked at her. She snorted referring to Ley. I looked back at Ley who was now sitting very close to Asher. Her elbow rested on the man’s shoulder. We are not far from our position.

“Hunter hello!” she calls me.

“Huh?” Dave laughed at my answer so I glared at him.

“She asked if how are you ‘bro?” Quinn repeated.

“Good. I’m good. You, how are you and what happened to you, where are you came from?”

‘All right, Hunter, you look stupid now for sure. You show that you are shocked on her return.’

I just want to know what happened to her. Why she looks like this. Is she really back to who she really is?

“I am alive and kicking. Arise from the dead, isn’t it baby Ash?” Then she winks at Asher while he smirked at her then drink.

“Ashley!” she shouted once throwing an empty beer in a can.

“Ouch! Your sadistic bitch!” Ashley shouted.

“What the fuck Ash, your drinks are cheap. Don’t you have a budget? Why you did not tell me so at least I can buy you boxes of whiskey, brandy, and champagne. Beer, the fuck!”

I was devastated by what I heard.

Is this the old Hailey?

Why seems to be away from Ley my wife.

“I’m sorry! They’re here. That’s those are for the boys. You love to pick up anything, then you will complain if you are in messed, Tss!” Ash returned the can to Ley.

“I love to pick up things that I like. That’s why I ended up doomed.” She replied looking at me but immediately changed her gaze.

‘Is she referring to me?’

They talk a lot and I did not join in their conversation and just listened quietly. I want to talk to Ley but I feel dumb because I don’t know what to say.

“How’s the vacation, Ley? Where are you coming from and when did you come back?” Dave asked.

“My vacation was so much fun, Dave. I came from death and came back to life but the origin is not from paradise but from hell. I think the devil was afraid of me that I might change him so he threw me back on the Earth,” she replied then laughed. “I only came home last week.”

“Cheers for that, Ley!”

They laughed loudly while shouting while I simply glanced at Ley. She was talking seriously to Asher. Based on their actions they are closed to each other. I waited for Ley to look at me so I can smile at her. But she didn’t even bother to look at me. Even just a glance.

The party went wild and started dancing. Ley is dancing with no one but Asher. Asher was serious as if he was just riding Ley. He looked at Ashley who in turn motioned to hold Ley by the waist. Asher’s forehead was still a bit furrowed and he looked at Ash badly but my sister glared at him. He shook his head while holding Ley’s waist.

He doesn’t seem to want to do that but he is forced because of Ash.

Hera stood up and said she will go to the comfort room so I stood up as well and followed her. I waited for Hera outside the comfort room to talk. She didn’t take long.

“Hera,” I called her.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Oh Hunter, why are you here?” she asked.

“What happened to your sister?” Suddenly her face changed and she didn’t seem to want to talk about Ley.

“I will call her, just wait for her here,” she said then immediately went inside but I immediately held his hand.

“Wait, I’m not ready to talk to him. I just want to know what happened to her.” Hera took my hand.

“Honestly, I don’t know either. The day she disappeared Asher called the next day. We don’t know him so we don’t have any idea who he is. He said that Hailey was with him but did not want to talk to anyone. He said he called just to inform us that Hailey is ok. She’s fixing herself and she’ll be back too when it’s ok. He said that Ley didn’t want anyone to know that he had sent a message that she was ok, so we did. He also said that Ley told him not to bother them. After that, we had no news of them. Until one day she’s back and that’s what you saw now.”

“So, Ley has been with Asher the whole time?”

“Yes.”

“Why didn’t you tell me, and at least inform me if she was ok. I was worried about her all the time.”

“I’m sorry Hunter. But I don’t want to interfere with Hailey’s business. When she says, I do as long as her decision doesn’t affect our family.”

Did Asher have anything to do with Ley’s disappearance?

So maybe she disappeared because he went with Asher and they have a relationship.

But impossible.

I just now realized that it’s impossible that Ley cheats me.

“Hunter, if you want the answer to all the questions that are bothering you, you can talk to Ley.”

“What if she gets mad at me, what if she scolds me. What can I say?”

“She won’t do that, knowing Hailey, when she forgot she didn’t care anymore. Besides, she knew she was wrong because she forced herself on you.” Hera tried to convince me so I nod.

There is nothing wrong if I try. One more thing, I also told myself that once we meet I will ask her to be my friend so at least we can start again.

“I’ll call her.” She smiled then finally entered the door. I don’t know but I feel my chest pounding. I was hesitant whether to talk to Ley or not. Maybe when I talk to her, she only says hurtful words. I was afraid of what she might say or criticize me for. Because I know she has a lot of reason to blame me.

I was about to leave just to escape when the door suddenly opened.

“Hunter,” Ley called to me.

Shit! What I will do now?
