"I don't want it!"
I throw myself at Frances and hug him tightly.
I could hold back my emotions when I thought he had no feelings for me before.
But now, since I know everything, how can I pretend to be calm?
How can I watch him being with Hilda since I have known that we are in love?
He touches my forehead helplessly and sighs, saying, "That's why I don't want to tell you. Before all the troubles are resolved, how can I be with you without any worries? You have seen how cruel Hilda was when she attacked Terence. She could even attack a man who loved her deeply without hesitation, let alone you."
I know that Frances is worried about me, but the jealousy makes it impossible for me to imagine the scene that they are together.
I hug Frances tightly and say wrongly, "I know that Hilda is very evil, but I feel very bad when I know that you have slept with another woman."
Thinking of that, I feel so sad that I almost suffocate.
"No, we didn't do that. I won't touch any women other than you."
He strokes my forehead and says seriously.
I look up to him and try to believe what he says. However, I still feel that it is impossible.
"You have been married for more than a year, how is that possible..?"
There should be some things that he can't avoid.
Since a man and a woman have been already married, how can they not do that thing?
