Chapter 144 - The Divorce

Chapter One Hundred Forty-Four:

 

Del Gazini's House

 

"Let us divorce."

 

After Haimon told me the whole truth about Siara and how they became vampires, I still decided to divorce him. I know my decision was painful and difficult but right now, the fact that he is hiding everything from me hurts me more because I didn't hide anything from him. From very beginning I told him everything even, the worst of me and my darkest secrets I had told him. Because I completely entrusted myself to him and that is what he did not do for me.

 

Haimon never trust me even from the beginning and I really don't know if I'll believe him if he said that he loves me. Because even with his love, I can no longer believe and trust him no matter what he explained or do. I cannot just believe him anymore. Not now!

 

"Shu--"

 

"Don't come near me." I said as I back off when he was about to approach me.

 

"But I already told you the whole truth."

 

"And do you think I will still believe you?" I replied. "Haimon, one year! One year of marriage—no unconsummated marriage, you didn't say a thing about your past. Because if you had done that in the first place, we might not have ended up like this, but I don't blame you. I don't know if I can accept that you've got a wife before. Oh, well, you're a Vampire, an Immortal, so you are more likely to have multiple wives."

 

"No. Only Siara was the first and last I married before you. And I'm telling the truth, Shu."

 

I intently look at him and I know he's honest and sincere with his words but I am badly hurt right now that is why it was hard for me to believe him. "I'm so sorry Haimon but I want a divorce. And this is our last conversation because the one you will talk to starting tomorrow is my lawyer. I hope you respect my decision and let me go quietly." I said before I left him without looking back even though I badly wanted to see him one last time. I stop myself and went straight out our house.

 

I didn't even bother to pick up my belongings because I still have belongings in my previous house that will now be my house again. I just need to leave that house as soon as possible and I will just ask Dealla to help me to get my things. Right now, all I need is to stay away from him, from all our memories because it's all shattered into pieces and I don't know how to fix it.

 

 

One Week Later…

 

"How long will you stay here, Shuki?" Alena asked me while I keep staring outside the window and I am not thinking of anything, I just silently staring. "Alright!" she answered as she takes a harsh sigh. "Your lawyer is at the outside again, don't you plan to confront him now and he has come here many times to talk to you in person."

 

My lawyer has come back here a few times but on his few visits until now Haimon still refuses to divorce me. So, I prefer not to face him and just ask Alena or Dealla if Haimon has a positive answer for him.

 

"Please just ask if Haimon has an answer if he still doesn't, please say I'll just deal with him when Haimon agrees."

 

"Then, why don't you just talk to Haimon yourself?"

 

"Why else, he won't even agree to divorce me. So, why do I even need to face and talk to him? That is the reason why I just sent my lawyer to talk to him personally. And if he still won't agree to my wishes then, I will never give up and I will fight for what I want."

 

"Okay, if that is what you want. I'll ask your lawyer then." She replied and was surprised when suddenly Dealla came in.

 

"Haimon is here." Dealla immediately announced.

 

"Deal!" Alena immediately scolded her.

 

"What?! Don't say you didn't immediately tell Shuki that Haimon was here?"

 

"Uhm…" I turned my gaze at them and I saw Alena's reaction, and she's guilty of it but anyway, as I said earlier.

 

I will not face and talk to Haimon personally even though I really want to see him. Whether I admit it or not I miss him so much and I still love him dearly even though I was hurt by his hiding secrets. I still can't help but worry about him and once I see him in person, I'm sure, my decision will change.

 

"Let her, Deal." I answered. "It's better if she doesn't mention Haimon's coming here. Besides, I won't face him either."

 

"Really? Shuki, don't you know that whenever your lawyer is here, he's always with your husband?" Dealla asked me that really surprised me. "It looks like Alena didn't tell you that thing either…" she said while glaring at Alena.

 

"I'm sorry…" Alena immediately confessed without further explanation.

 

Well, I understand why she hid about Haimon because even if she said that, I won't face Haimon either. I take a very deep breath before I answered.

 

"You have to talk to him because my decision is complete. All I want is to be able to divorce our marriage as soon as possible."

 

 

"Deal!" I immediately approached Dealla soon she came out of Shu Tokino's house.

 

"I'm so sorry, Haimon but… she really doesn't want to talk to you anymore." she replied that breaks my heart. "And she also tells you that you should have agreed to the divorce she is seeking. Other than that, she really doesn't want to see you anymore."

 

I felt like the world I stand in has collapsed after I heard everything Dealla said. All of a sudden, I seemed to have lost my life, lost all my senses. I feel like I came back when Siara died in my very hands. I'm lost.
