CHRIS POV
I'm glad that Sabti is back in my life. I don't why she keeps hanging on to her husband if she isn't with him. I love her more than he ever could, and she knows it. I looked down and saw her sexy ass in the bed sleeping so peacefully. I kissed her on the forehead and drifted back to sleep.
THREE HOURS LATER.....
I opened my eyes and saw Sabti quietly dressing herself. I'm tired of the same old routine. We break up, get back together, say we're done with each other, end up fucking all for her to leave me again in the morning. She needs to be consistent!
Me: Mmmm, what are you doing?
Sabti: I uh have to go...
Me: C'mere, we gotta talk.
Sabti: About what?
Me: Us.
She sat down and looked at me.
Me: Leave him.
Sabti: What?
Me: Leave your husband and be with me.
Sabti: I can't.
Me: You can't? Why the fuck not!?
Sabti: Because---
Me: Ain't no because, either you wanna be with me or you don't.
Sabti: I wish it were that easy but DeVante would never---
Me: Fuck what he won't let you do! You a grown ass woman baby!
Sabti: I---
Me: I know you thought about it. I knew it from the moment we met....this is more than just sex to you. It definitely is for me, and I've never said that about any female AT ALL. Do you know how many women I let go just to have you!? DO YOU!?
Sabti: I---
I pulled her on top of me and we kissed. I grabbed her ass and squeezed it, she let out a moan.
Me: You know what's up...
SABTI POV
Damn! Chris was right. I could see a life with him. As much as I wanted to be with him, I made a lifetime commitment to my husband. Chris had to leave town for business, and that left me with a good amount of time to reevaluate everything. I got a phone call, I answered it thinking it was Chris, but when I realized it was the least person I would expect to call me.
Me: D-D-DeVante!?
DeVante: Hi Sabby Boo!
I chuckled. He hasn't called me that since our first date.
DeVante: Surprised!?
Me: VERY!!!
DeVante: How have you been?
Me: Good. I've been good.
DeVante: I know what would make you feel better?
Me: What?
DeVante: I want to work this out.
My heart sank to my stomach. I was really conflicted....
DeVante: I love you, and I want to forget about this whole mess. I know now that you've been feeling unappreciated by me and I want to make up for it. You know I love you, and when I saw you at the gallery, I died inside. It didn't feel right not being there for my wife. You are my strength, and I can't leave you, no matter how much I try. I just want us back.
I cried. As much shit I talk about not being in love with him, I'm lying when I say I don't care. I can't give up 12 years so easily. I guess if we can really get some counseling, then we can keep this thing intact.
....But how will this sit with Chris?
