My Story.
Brock came home to his old house hoping to talk to his wife Reba. They had been separated for a few mounts now. After a huge fight she had told him to leave. He had been to a bar two nights ago with some friends, they had been a lot of drinking. He had made a huge mistake the following night and now he had to tell his wife.
Reba was sitting in the living room alone and reading a book. She were enjoying a quiet evening alone with a glass of wine. Jake and Kyra were upstairs asleep in their rooms, and Cheyenne were out with her boyfriend. She missed her husband like crazy, because the evenings used to be their time together.
After 20 years of marriage Brock and Reba had met a huge bump in the road. None of them knew how they would find back together with each other.
Reba was startled of a knock at the door. She put her book down and went over to see who came by so late at night. As she opened the door she was surprised too se her husband there.
"Hi Reba"
"Hi"
"How are you?"
"Holding on, what are you doing here so late?"
"I came to talk to you."
Reba told him to come inside, he sat down at the coach.
"Can I get you anything to drink?"
"No, I just need to talk. I want you to listen to everything I have to say before you answer me"
"Okay"
Reba sat down on the coach beside him, and waited for him to start. She was very afraid on what he wanted to talk to her about, because he looked so serious.
"Reba from the day I met you, you have been the love of my life. And you still are.
I don't know what happened to us this last year. We kept on fighting over small things; I don't know how to make this better.
Two nights ago, some friends and went to a bar for some drinks. I got really drunk, and I made the biggest mistake of my life.
I woke up next to another woman. I don't remember anything at all, but she said we slept together. I know this will break your heart Reba,
but I love you so much and I am asking you to not give up on us. I want our marriage to survive this.
You and our children are everything for me." Brock was in tears when he was done talking. He looked over at his wife in shame.
Tears were running down her face to, and she didn't know what to say to him. Her whole world came crashing down.
"Please Reba, just say something."
"I don't know what you want me to say Brock, how could you be so stupid"
"I don't know, I don't remember anything form that night." Reba got up and walked over to their family pictures who hang at the wall.
She stood there quietly for a while, Brock got up and went over to her.
"Reba?" She turned around to look at him.
"Yeah?" Brock took her hands in his, and looked inn to her broken eyes.
"Honey, I love you. I'm sorry, but I don't want to lose you or our family. I know I did you wrong,
but I'm hoping that you love me too and can find it in your heart to forgive me. I need you and the kids."
"I do love you Brock, but it hurt so much." Reba stood there crying as Brock put his arms around her.
She fell at his chest and stayed there. Brock took her over to the coach again and just held her while she cried.
They sat there in silence for some time and when Brock looked at her he saw that she had fallen asleep.
He carried her upstairs and laid her down on the bed. He bent down to give her a kiss before leaving.
"Don't go, please just hold me"
"I will" Brock lay down at the bed behind her, and took her in his arms.
They both fell asleep there.
