"I don't trust him, he has feelings for you I could see it".
I replied with my eyes staring at hers deeply.
"Of Course you don't trust him, you don't even trust anyone, not even your own emotions. Dan is not like others, he is not that type okay,I can't believe you came here ,why would you do this,he's having a bad time and....".
I cuts in abruptly
"Don't you love me, Valerie?"
She looked up and looked speechless at first then with a frown she replied.
"Why are you asking me this at the moment..."
"Because I need to be sure, I need you to prove it".
I replied immediately.
"What...,to who".
"To me... in front of Dan".
I replied.
She stood there looking very confused, more tears rolling down her face.
"Val...".
I caught her face and kissed her passionately but she pushed me back.
"This is not the time for this".
My brows arched.
"Enough of your drama Valerie get inside the car, I am your husband!"
That voice sounds nothing like me. I could see the horrifying look in her big brown eyes.
"What are you going to do if I refuse to beat me up?"
My heart raced, I was scared I would, I was scared the voices that were in my head could push me to hit her to stupor, and she's not helping with that reply.
"Don't push me Val".
I replied with my hands clenched tightly beside me, I bit my lower lip holding back, could feel my eyes clouding.
"I won't give a chance to anybody,be it him or your ex, you are mine!"
I yelled at her, my voice kept scaring her. I could see it on her face.
"You can do your worst, you don't own me"she said and pulled the ring off , dropped it on the ground and slowly walked towards his house.
I stared at the ring on the ground then looked up at her leaving.
"You are choosing him over me?"
She ignored me and walked straight into the house then locked the door, I got my leg on the car tire and cursed out.
****VAL'S POV***
I slowly went into the house, leaned on the door and cried.
"Are you okay?"
Dan came through to me ,I hugged him crying.
Prince was watching through the window then he left but I don't care at the moment,Dan was there for me during the bad times,he cared,he listens,he....
"I am so sorry Dan, are you still hurting".
I cupped my face in my palms to inspect the injury.
He chuckled.
"It's not that deep, you are crying, did he hit you?"
I shook my head slowly.
"We had an argument outside, and he scared me! It wasn't the man I know..I..."
"I love you Val"he cuts in.
I looked up and smiled at him softly, as he dried my face with his palm.
"Love you too Dan".
"No... no Valerie not the love we've always had for each other, I meant I...love you Val, more than that".
So Prince was telling the truth, I muttered to myself, eyes widened.
