Chapter Three

Moira wiped the tears from her eyes as she sat in the bath she rarely used, she never had the time, she always showered. Her knees cuddled into her body. She rested her head into her knees and pushed her hair from her face. She felt a lump building in her throat, as she thought of her husband, his reaction petrified her, how do you tell a man as temperamental as Cain Dingle that you had been raped. The word itself disgusted her, she was always sympathetic of these sort of things, but she never imagined it could happen to her, she was so strong minded, after all she had tamed Cain and that was no easy task, if she told him he would revert back to his old ways, he would kill Pete without a second thoughts and she couldn't bare to lose him. Hearing the front door bang she listened to her husband as he walked through their home "Moira, you home?" she sighed as she heard him outside the door "You in there?"

"Yeah, I erm, I just fancied a bath"

"Do you want me to scrub your back?" he was laughing and it brought tears to her eyes, he tried the handle before sighing "You tease, I have seen it all before". The words haunted her, the word Pete had used 'Tease' was that what she really was, maybe she did lead him on.

"I will see you later Cain"

"Alright, I will look forward to it". Tears rolled down her checks and she tried to steady her breathing. After what seemed like hours she climbed from the bath and padded into the bedroom, she began to dress and she sunk into the bed and curled into a ball.

Three hours passed before she heard the front door bang, she grabbed her phone charger and stuffed it into the bag she had packed. She wiped her eyes before heading out in search of her husband. She moved into the kitchen and he was in the fridge, getting a beer. He faced her and the bag caught his eye instantly "What's that?" he asked as he opened the beer

"I have decided to go and see my mum"

"What about the farm?"

"Adam said he can put in a few extra hours"

"Where has this come from?"

"She is my mum"

"Ok, will give me a minute and I will pack"

"No" he noticed her voice raise and he frowned at her "I just mean, its not going to be a lot of fun. I am only stopping a few days. Besides you have the garage"

"Debbie would cope"

"Cain, I just want some time with my mum"

"Ok"

"Is it OK?"

"Have to be won't it"

"Cain"

"I'm going to have a shower" she watched him leave the room before she left the house.

He took a large mouthful of his beer, he had planned to spend the evening alone with his wife and yet here he was drowning his sorrows in the pub. His life was as good as over, he loved this woman with all his heart and he knew she was to good for him but he always tried to be the best husband to her. He had been told by many people he had changed since meeting Moira, he had changed for her, he would of been mad not to. "I hope your better half knows you are out getting gattered" Chas smiled

"Nope, but she will never know"

"Why?"

"Because she has gone to see her mum"

"Since when?"

"About an hour ago"

"Why?"

"I don't know do I?"

"Cain, what's going on?"

"I don't know, I don't need you nagging, so do one"

"Fine, your on your own".

He took his phone out and moved into the men's toilets, he dialled her number and it went straight to answerphone. "Moira, I am sorry I weren't more supportive, it was just a bit of a shock, have a nice time and give me a call later. I love you".
