ELECTION

 When I decided to marry him, it was with all my heart. I knew I didn't have all the sparks but I was endeared by his humane nature; he loved me and it was so obvious that there was no arguing that.

While we were dating, we had a minor "glitch" in the relationship so, we decided to take a break and while on the break, my ex boyfriend came visiting and one thing led to the other and we had sex. I felt terrible about it because I knew I had betrayed someone but I had to remind myself that we were on a break.

We came back together after a month and picked up from where we stopped and that was when I began to fall for him seriously. I started getting excited about him and my love for him began to grow. I felt guilty about what happened between me and my ex and I told him about it. He was sad for a while and afterwards,  he hugged me and said it wasn't a problem since we were not actively in a relationship when it happened. I loved him the more. His kind is rare to find. When he asked me to marry him, I agreed without thinking twice. I knew our union was going to be heaven on earth because he loved me much more than I loved him.

6 months into the marriage, I walked into the room one morning and saw his phone ringing, it was from a name I know. They've been friends for a long time and I made it a point of duty to make all his female friends my friends. He was in the bathroom and since I knew who it was, I didn't think it was a problem picking the call,
