Lonely Housewife Succumbs: 44

Her words hurt to no end. I screwed up big time. My mind was caught in a maelstrom of negative thoughts and feelings. I should have known something like this was going to happen. I'm so pissed at myself. I went back to my room and waited to see what she was going to do.

As the day went by my stomach continued to churn with negative emotions as Ginny had not come out of her room. I made her a sandwich and brought it up to her. I knocked on the door and before I could say anything she screamed, "Go away. Leave me alone!"

I put the plate on the floor by her door and said, "I just brought you a sandwich, at least eat something."

I turned and went back to my room crying at the hurt I had caused my only child. I laid down and was finally able to fall asleep. When I woke up I noticed she had eaten the sandwich but was still barricaded in her room. I resigned myself to the fact that she was controlling the situation. When she was ready she would come out.

I woke up the next day to the same thing. Door locked and no sign of wanting to address the events of yesterday morning. I've had enough. I pounded on her door and shouted, "Ginny open up the door right now!" She replied, "Go away." I continued my pounding and shouted, "Ginny if you don't open up the door right this minute I'm calling the fire department and have them come break it open, now stop this nonsense and open up the door so that we can talk." After a few seconds I saw the knob turn and the door open. I took a deep breath and went inside to face the music. Ginny was sitting cross legged on her bed, head down.

I started, "Ginny, I'm sorry you witnessed what you saw. I can't ever take that back but I want you to know I feel horrible and I want you in due time to forgive me."

She looked up with a menacing glare and spewed, "Forgive you for being a whore! Never. What I saw was disgusting and perverted."
