His Purchased Wife

"Fuck!" I heard him. I couldn't control my emotions anymore as I burst into tears. I didn't know when he ended the call and when he walked to me.

"Aurora, love. Please, stop crying."

I was feeling humiliated by the way he treated me. No one had ever treated me this disrespectful in my life but he did, The man I love humiliated me today. I have been trying to change myself for the past two months for him. He didn't like going shopping with me when I love shopping, so I learned to live with it not only that there are many things which I won't do because he didn't like them.

Going to dance clubs for one, I love going there and dancing my heart out while he likes watching some stupid Football League. I love watching romance movies and he didn't like them. I love talking about fashion events and designers as I am a jewellery designing student but he doesn't like any of those things. Still, I was trying to like the things he likes, I was trying to adapt to his ways but he doesn't see them.

What he saw was I said something which hurt him, it was not like I said those things to hurt him and I am feeling ashamed for using those words.

"Aurora, please look at me…" he spoke, making his voice soft. I shook my head and he held my chin softly, raised my head and made me look at him.

"I am sorry love, it's just that I was angry with you…"

I didn't know what came over me and I started beating his chest with my fists. "I hate you...I hate you…" I sobbed while beating him. "I hate you…"

He didn't try to stop me and when I stopped beating his chest he pulled me in his arms and hugged me tightly. "Calm down, love. I am sorry for the way I behaved with you."

I was still sobbing in his arms. "I hate you."

"But I love you, my darling. I love you more than anything else in this world." He said, caressing my hair with his hand. He scooped me in his arms and took me to the couch. He made me sit on it and held my face, wiping the tears from my cheek. He placed a soft kiss on my head.
