My Husband's Childhood Friend Drove us to the Brink

I didn't notice that my dinner plate was switched by my husband’s childhood friend who leaves with us. After i finished dinner, she claimed that her blue diamond which was the size of bean seed had fallen into my plate.

“ how could you swallow my daimond” She cried fake tears that the diamond was her favorite and she liked to carry it everywhere.

Without delay, my husband called his best friend, Chris who came over with his tools, they both held me and took me to a room where something was injected into my veins, i passed out immediately.

“ have you seen it?” i heard my husbands worried voice from one end of the room.

“ no there's nothing but good here, its disgusting” i heard Chris say.

“ sow her up” my husband, Damian said before i heard the door open and close.

I couldn't feel anything but pain, tears fell down my eyes as the reality of things dawned on me, my husband had cut me open just because his childhood friend had lost her diamond.

I knew at that moment that my life was nothing to him compare to his childhood friend Ana.

——-

I laid on the bed with tears in my eyes as Chris stitched me up. The door opened and closed again, i heard footsteps walking towards me.

“ Ana has seen the diamon” i heard my husband say. Above me, Chris sighed in relief.

“ good, but she will have to pay me for looking at such disgusting thing before breakfast” i heard Chris say as he hastily stitched me up and wipe his hand and walk out of the room with my husband, leaving me there, broken and in pain.

“ how could you?”

I couldn't believe my husband of three years would not hesitate to open me up just to look for a diamond his childhood friend thought she had lost.

The door opened again and i heard footsteps walk towards me, the person stopped beside me, i moved my eyes slowly to the left to see the handsome face of my husband Damian looking down at me with his face contorted in a disgusted frown.

“ can you get up?” i heard him ask.

I was silent as i observed him, searching for even and ounce of sympathy for what he had done to me but there was none, only disgust and a little but if impatience.

“ no” i shook my head at him moving my eyes away, just a little while, when the pain eases, i will him for good.

“ i cant” he said and turned around again, i looked at the door in confusion, soon his best friend came in, and pulled me by the arm.

I clenched my teeth in pain but he didn't care, he threw my hand hastily over his shoulders and pulled me out of the bed.

I was in so much pain, i couldn't even feel my legs, he carried me out of the room and out of the hospital, my legs trailing behind, stones and sand rubbed harshly against my legs.

When he put me carelessly in the car, i looked down at my leg to see that my toes where bloodied. Fresh tears fell from my eyes.

“ suck it up loser, Dont act like you are mistreated” i heard Chris say. I snapped my head towards him.

‘Of course i am mistreated, i wasn't even given proper medication, i had my inside probed without proper equipment, i could have died on that operating table.

“ where is Damian?” i asked when Chris started the car.

“ he has already gone, he went to stay with ana” Chris said without mixing words.

I nodded and looked out the window as the city went by in a blur. Chris laughed a little before glancing at me through the rearview mirror.

“ you are so pathetic do you know that?” he started, i closed my eyes, knowing that he was right.

“ after everything that Damian has done to you, you still stayed like a dog, a loyal idiot dog, even after knowing that he did not love you and he never loved you, you still stayed like a stupid idiot” Chris said harshly, he kept glancing at me through the mirror.

It hurt, it hurt because it was true, everything he said was true.

“ just divorce him already, he doesn't need you neither does he want you, you are only forcing things and that is pathetic” he said.

I sighed.

Chris was right.

The car stopped in front of the house that i have lived for three years, the house i once thought was my home, now it was nothing but a house that i loved him.

The door opened and i stumbled out, i fell face first on the ground,

I heard Chris make a sound with his teeth and tongue.

“ pathetic” he muttered, pulling me up by the shoulders, he once again threw my hand over his shoulder, his other hand wound around my waist. I groaned in pain, my face hurt, my body felt like it was run over by a tractor.

“ suck it up, Dont be a weakling” Chris said, i said nothing, because he was right, i am a weakling.

I was lead into the house, the door was opened, there on the couch was my husband, laying in his back raising a blue diamond above his head with a smile on his face, on top of his, scantily clothed was ana, stretching her hand to get the diamond.

“ give it to me, its mine” she cried, her lips pouted cutely, she blinked her big eyes at my husband who laughed, although she had an aggrieved frown on her face her eyes gleamed in amusement.

“ no you have to reach up and get it” Damian said, he hadn't noticed our prescence yet, his hand was placed on ana waist as she laid on top of him.

“ no give it to me” she whined.

“ no, “ he said.

“ fine, you can throw it away, i Dont really care about it”

Ana glanced at me after she said this, she had a small smirk on her face. That innocent face that you wouldn't Belive could hurt a fly.

My eyes widened in disbelief, she didn't really need it? But when the diamond was lost she threw a bit fit for it, she broke a lot of things in the house screaming that she couldn't live without the diamond.

And now she didn't really need it?

Is my life a joke? I am just a dog they could use and toss after having their feel, i am not an experimental pig.

“ you Dont need it? I asked harshly,

All i felt was rage, hatred, and revenge.

Damian turned to me instantly, i expected to see remorse or sympathy but once again i was doused with the cold waters called reality.

He frowned at me, his face in disgust as he looked at my ‘pathetuc state’

“ oh my gosh, Clara, you look horrible” ana said. I couldn't bare this shame and insult.

“ how dare you? I was cut open because of you, because of stupid diamond” i said pointing at her.

Ana widened her eyes in fake disbelief.

“ oh my gosh, Damian you had her cut open because of me?” tears gathered in her eyes.

That was it, that was what she used to hook my husband all these years, the only thing i didn't know how to do.

‘ conjure up tears at will’

She was a pro at it, her tears was my husbands weak point, he could do anything just to stop her from crying.

Before Damian could respond she cut him off.

“ i can't Belive you went to that length just to get my diamond back” she giggled with tears in her eyes.

Damian pulled her into his embrace, he opened his mouth and said the unforgivable.

“ i can do anything for you”

Ana giggled and turned to me, her face once again morphing into a cute and innocent one.

“ i am sorry Clara, i didn't mean to cause you a lot of pain” she apologies but i knew that it was fake.

“ i had only asked brother Damian to help me ask you for it, i thought you took it because you were angry that brother Damian sold your only car to get me a new car” she said with tears in her eyes, she even had the audacity to sob.

Liar,

She had clearly asked Damian to cut me open and search my stomach while she threw things around, and when Damian tried to negotiate with her, he told her that he would get her a new one but she refused, she said that it was either they cut me open to get the diamond out or she jumped off the building.

Damian and i lived in a three storey building.

“ liar “ i muttered.

Ana froze, she stopped wiping her tears and shot me a mocking glance as if trying to ask what i would do about it.

“ Dont mind her ana, Clara is being to over dramatic, you have apologised, if she doesn't accept it, she can leave” Damian said shooting me a glare.

Ana’s sobbing turned into a full blow weeping.

“I am so sorry ana, but at least my brother Damian helped me find the diamond” she said showing it to me.

She stretched her hand to take the diamond from Damian, as Damian dropped it in her hand she purposefully moved, the diamond fell to the ground.

“ there is it” ana said kicking the diamond with her feet towards me.

the same diamond she had them cut me open to get.

I stood there, tears streaming down my face. I didn't notice that the man beside me had also stiffened but i didn't care, i needed to vent.

And i did.

I lunged at ana, ignoring the pain shooting from my body, u grabbed her by the hair and pulled her away from my husband.

“ let go of me, let go” she cried.

I felt Chris pull me backwards but i used my elbows to hit him in his jaw, it hurt me as well as it hurt him but i didn't care.

I continued to pull at ana’s hair, she could have eailsu pushed me off but she didn't, and i failed to see the obvious trap that she had set for me.

I felt a large hand grab me by my hair and hurl me across the room, i felt my body flying until i crashed into the wall.

Pain, that was all i felt, and hatred,

“ how dare you lay your hands on ana” i heard my husband scream at me, i heard ana cry loudly.

“ my head hurts, she pulled my hair out” she cries, i looked at my hands weakly and saw two strands of hair in my hand.

I slowly looked up at them, my head throbbed in pain, i felt a warm liquid trail down my face.

Ana’s face contorted in fear as she looked at me like she had seen a ghost.

I smiled at them and suddenly, everything went dark.

I heard ana scream “ she is dead”.

Chris voice followed after.

“ she isn't, she just fainted” i heard footsteps approach me.

“ take her to her room and lock the door, i do it want to see her” Damian said.

I felt myself floating in the air before i could hear no more.

I woke up to an empty room,

I realised that This wasn't my room, this was the guest room i had prepared for ana a few months ago when she had no place to stay.

My head throbbed in pain, i used my elbows to support myself into a sitting position. My body hurt all over. I touched my head, there was a large bandage over my head.

I sighed and threw my legs out of the bed, i got down and made my way out of the room, using the wall as a support.

I was very hungry and thirsty, i wanted to make something for myself.
