After Five Years Of Marriage

1: Sign the divorce papers

Jessica paced about in the living room, waiting for her husband, Dylan Robinson, to return home from work.

She was a beautiful, woman, and she had been married to Dylan for five years. She had been submissive, loving, taking care of their home and two kids. Yet, all of a sudden, Dylan changed.

Jessica has a son and a daughter for Dylan. Her first son, Caleb, is a five-year-old boy, while her second child, Nina, is a two-year-old girl, and they were fast asleep in their separate bedrooms.

For two nights, after Dylan left to work on Monday morning, Jessica hadn't seen her husband return home. She had noticed that his mood had changed before he left the house to work on Monday morning.

Jessica stood in the living room and placed a call to Dylan, to know where he was, but the network provider told her, “Sorry, the mobile number that you're trying to call is currently unavailable. Please try again later.”

“Oh! Where could Dylan be?” Jessica cussed, as she had called Dylan's phone line several times, and she really needed to see her husband.

She had lied to their two kids that their father went to work on Monday morning. Yet, Dylan didn't return home at all, and she couldn't continue to keep up with her lies.

Jessica heard the sound of a car driving into their compound and parking, and she went outside and peeped and saw that Dylan had finally returned home.

She sighed and went back into the house to wait for Dylan to come inside.

Soon, Dylan stepped down from his car and walked into the mansion. He is a 30-year-old man, and he owns DY Mobile Company.

He entered the living room and saw his wife, Jessica Albert, standing there in her long white nightgown, and she greeted him: "Welcome home, sweetheart.”

“Hmm,” Dylan frowned. He looked at the divorce paper in his hands that his long-time lover, Rosie Andrew had given to him to give to Jessica at home and to divorce her straight.

Dylan walked up to meet Jessica without responding to her greeting, and he stopped in front of her and shook the divorce papers into her hands and told her, "I cannot continue to pretend with you anymore, Jessica. You read through this divorce paper and sign it, as you pack your things tomorrow and return to your father's house.

You can leave with our kids if you want to, or you can leave them behind and leave alone, but make sure that you pack your things tomorrow and leave! I will give you some funds, shares of my company revenue and pay you off later, but this marriage is over between us.”

“What!” Jessica was taken aback by her husband's statement to her, and she looked at the divorce paper in her hands.

'Is this a dream?' Jessica wondered and stared up at Dylan as she saw him walking away towards the living room stairs.

Instead of Dylan explaining to her where he had gone for three days and two nights that she hadn't seen him, as he was just returning home now, instead, he shoved a divorce paper into her hands and ordered her to sign it.

Jessica snapped out from her trance and quickly called Dylan back. She asked him, “Wait, Dylan, What's the meaning of this? You just got home now, and instead of you explaining to me where you went before, you are speaking to me about divorce? What has come over you, Dylan? What did I do wrong to you?”

Jessica looked teary, and Dylan paused and turned back to face her. He asked, “Have you taken a good look at yourself lately in the mirror, Jessica?”

Jessica got puzzled by her husband's questions at her, and stared at herself from head to toe to know what he meant.

“Are you the same woman that I married five years ago? Take a good look at yourself, Jessica. You have turned fat overnight, and I cannot continue with you anymore! I cannot carry you, and make love to you the way I want it, as you have outgrown me, and that's just the truth!

This marriage is not working anymore. So you sign the divorce paper and leave!.” Dylan spat in a cold voice and turned to walk away towards the living room stairs, Jessica replied, “No, Dylan! We cannot divorce. I love you, and I'm already working on myself.”

Jessica was a banker before she met Dylan, but after giving birth to Nina, she started adding weight at home. Dylan complained that she had turned lazy and mandated for her to quit her job and to look after their two kids at home, stating that she wouldn't be leaving all the work to the maid alone.

Dylan sent the poor maid away, and Jessica had thought that the maid did something wrong, but the maid was innocent. Furthermore, Dylan insisted that Jessica must cook his food, spend time with their two kids, and Jessica happily did all that, If that would make their marriage to work and please Dylan, yet, Dylan is filing for a divorce now.

Jessica cried: "No, Dylan! I cannot divorce you. After five years of our marriage, No! This cannot be happening to us.”

Dylan paused and replied to Jessica, “Just sign the divorce paper and leave! I'm not the first man to divorce my wife, and I won't be the last man either.”

Jessica tearfully asked, "What did I do wrongly to you, Dylan? Why do you want to scatter our marriage?"

Dylan turned and replied, “You've turned ugly, Jessica, and not the same woman that I married before, so leave!”

“What!” Jessica was shocked at Dylan’s statement to her, and she looked at her husband’s face in disbelief. As he smelled of alcohol, and she could see the red lipstick color on his lips.

Jessica didn’t want to believe that Dylan was already cheating on her. She asked him, “What did you just say, Dylan? That I’m ugly now? Really?”

“Yes, Jessica! Or am I lying to you? Was this how I married you before? Agreed that you’re a billionaire’s daughter, and your father helped me in the past to establish myself, so what? I cannot continue to pretend with you anymore as you have turned fat and not the kind of wife that I want to have at home again or be coming back home to meet either. So leave!” Dylan spat in a cold tone, and Jessica’s heart broke to pieces as Dylan finally stated to her.

Tears freely streamed down from her eyes and wet the divorce papers in her hands. She sobbed, “No, Dylan… I cannot accept this divorce. I think you’re getting it all wrong, as it’s not my fault that I’m fat now. Some women usually turn fat too after their children’s birth, and it’s not a disease…”

Dylan climbed on the living room stairs and paused as he stared back at Jessica. He saw that she indeed looked so innocent in her long white nightgown. She wasn’t really fat before when he initially married her. He replied, “I cannot continue to pretend with you anymore, Jessica, so you take your time, and read through the divorce paper, and you sign it.

I acknowledge all your efforts in making our marriage work, and all your family’s efforts in supporting us too, in the past and present, but this marriage isn’t working anymore. I cannot continue to sleep outside my matrimonial home or to pay for a hotel room when I have a luxurious duplex mansion here as my home. So sign the divorce paper and leave!”

Dylan climbed on the living room stairs and went back upstairs to the master bedroom that he shares with Jessica, leaving only Jessica standing alone in the living room and staring at the divorce papers in her hands.

Jessica looked back at the living room wall clock time and saw that it was already after 11 pm. Yet, Dylan was just returning home from work, and she knew that his company usually closed by 5 pm.

Jessica screamed out, “No, Dylan!!! This cannot be happening to us, We can never divorce! … Never!”

Tears freely rolled down her cheeks, wetting the divorce papers in her hands. She said, “You cannot divorce me now, Dylan. I’m not like this before, and I cannot turn thin overnight just to please you and fvck you the way you want…”

Jessica fell backward on one of the living room black couches behind her back, as they have seven black couches in their living room, and she remembered the first day that she had met Dylan.

Dylan is a handsome black man, very trustworthy, friendly, and the kind of man that every other lady out there would pray to have.

In the initial stages of their relationship, Dylan was sweet, romantic to her, and he never got tired in bed with her. As he made her want him, and she couldn’t withstand his s****l prowess either.

If anyone had told her then that Dylan would one day break up with her or divorce her now, Jessica would have cursed the person as a hater, as she dated Dylan for two years before they finally got married.

But now, Dylan wants to divorce her, and to end their five years of marriage, after all she had done for him. “No, Dylan! I cannot take this divorce. That means you are already cheating on me out there with someone else. Come back here, as you need to explain to me what happened to the man that I met before and got married to? As you cannot divorce me now. No!! After five years of our marriage. Never!… I cannot take this!”

“How can you just be returning home today, after spending two days outside our matrimonial home, and you are telling me that I’m fat and ugly now, and not the kind of wife that you want to come back home to be meeting again at home… No way, Dylan!! I cannot accept this divorce, Dylan.” Jessica stood up from the living room couch, and she rushed back upstairs to their bedroom to meet her husband.
