The Woman From Hell

Theo was looking at her tenderly the way he used to look at me.

It was just one night. What happened?

Delia looked at me while tugging at Theo's clothes. "There's still someone else here. Theo, tell her what you think."

Hearing what Delia said, Theo turned to look at me. However, there was no longer the deep affection he had in his eyes in the past. Only coldness remained. Although my heart was feeling chilly now, I still held back my emotions and asked, "She said you agreed to divorce me?"

"Yes. Let's get a divorce."

Theo responded to me without having to think before I could even react.

I was taken aback by his quick response and looked at him with disbelief. My faintly widened eyes revealed the disbelief I felt.

My heart was a little confused.

I pulled Theo to the side to avoid Delia, but Delia just stood there looking confident. I lowered my voice, "What's going on? Do you have other ideas?"

"I do indeed have another idea and that is to be with Delia so we can get together and leave." Theo shoved his hands in his pockets, his upright stance making him look a lot more imposing.

He did not seem to be lying judging from that posture.

"You really want a divorce," I whispered.
