Ex-wife 6

Chapter 6 

“No Mike, that can’t be true, she can’t be gone, she just can’t!” Adams replied, refusing to believe the information Mike has 

just told him, 

“I’m sorry Adams, but that’s just the truth, Alicia already left this city and no one can blame her for that, not after what happened.” 

“This isn’t the time to judge me Mike, I need to find Alicia, you must do everything possible to find out where she traveled to. I can’t let her go Mike, I just can’t.”

“Do you even hear yourself Adams? Well I’m sorry to say this but locating her is going to be impossible, I would have asked you to wait and see if she’s ever going to return but then what’s the possibility that she’s ever going to come back to this 

country.” 

Adams heaved a deep breath, then he slowly sat on his bed, he was starting to have a terrible headache and his conscience was now eating him up, he blames himself for everything and if only he could just turn back the hands of time, he’s more than willing to change everything, he’s never going to hurt Alicia. 

“Adams?” Mike called after a moment of a long silence from Adams end. 

“I’m willing to wait for her Mike, I don’t care how long it takes but I’m willing to wait for Alicia and I’m not giving up on her, if you think it’s impossible to locate her, well that’s for you. I won’t give up on finding her, I’ll get someone else to do the job and I’m ready to wait for her until she’s found.” Adams replied and he heard Mike’s loud groan from the other end. 

“Well just for how long are you willing to wait? Five years? Ten years? What if she never comes back? What if she finds peace wherever she is and someone more deserving of her?” Mike angrily replied. “You brought this upon yourself Adams, you were the one who divorced her and sent her out of you life! You! The one she trusts the most and the only person she has in the world who was meant to stand by her and take care of her!” He yelled. 

“Why don’t you just go ahead and get married to the lady you and your parents picked over her, that’s what you want after all. You’ve just lost a diamond Adams and now you’re going to spend the rest of your life regretting not holding onto her and following other people’s words.” 

“I warned you Adams, I told you that you’ll eventually regret your actions and now look at you. Well I hope Alicia finds peace elsewhere since you couldn’t offer her something as easy as that! I hope you enjoy the wealth you claimed she was after.” Before Adams had the chance to fire back at Mike for his hurtful but truthful words, Mike hung up, not sparing him the chance to say anything at all. 

Adams stared at his phone for a little while before angrily throwing it at the wall, causing it to smash really badly. 

Mike’s words rang in his ears, filling him with even more guilt and pain, he not only regrets everything, but he also hates himself for what he did to Alicia, now he’s never going to find out what his child look like or get to take part in his child’s life. All this thoughts were enough to make his head spin and he screamed out in rage, he stood up in anger and began taking his anger and frustration out on his room, turning things up side down and breaking everything in sight. 

His parents who were still around heard the whole noise coming from his room and rushed upstairs. They were panicking so bad and they pounded his door so loudly, asking him to open up, but Adams didn’t care about them, he wasn’t even in the mood to speak to anybody, all he wants was to inflict as much pain as he can on himself because to him, that’s the reasonable thing to do at this moment. He wants to cause himself so much pain because of what he did to his ex wife. 

His parents didn’t relent in their attempt to get him to open up, and their constant pleading annoyed Adams even more, he ended up yelling at them to leave his house and never show their faces to him again because they were partially to blame for what he did to Alicia and they also contributed to making her life miserable. 

“Adams!” His mother screamed, there was so much pain and hurt in her voice when she heard Adams words 

“Just leave you two! Just leave!” Adams yelled and they heard him smash something else again.

His mother wanted to say something, but his father stopped her. He couldn’t tell what suddenly went wrong but he knew this wasn’t the right time to talk to Adams, it’s so clear that he needs some space and the best thing they can do is give him that 

space. 

“Let’s leave for now Bridget.” He said. 

“No, our son needs us, can’t you see that Antonio?” She replied in tears. 

“We both know our son and we know he’s not going to open that door, he’s not in his right frame of mind now, we have no idea what happened and we’re never going to find out this way, let’s return home for now, we can always come back and speak to him later.” 

Mrs Bridget didn’t want to leave and it took a lot of talking and assurance from her husband to finally get her to return home 

with him. 

Meanwhile, When Adams was done with turning his room up side down and there was nothing else in sight to break, he dropped to his knees and he wept bitterly.

The pain in his heart was just too much and there was nothing he could do to subside that pain. 

“I’m so sorry Alicia…” 

“I’m so sorry.”
