Chapter 108: Chapter 108

BRUCE

Simoune has been in Canada for almost a month and even if others tell me not to be sad because it's only been 1 month, I still can't because I see Simoune cry almost every day. Maybe her work is hard or she just really misses me, I don't know because every time I ask her she doesn't say anything

I got up at 5 in the morning and while having coffee I received an email from an unknown account, because I was curious I opened it and Simoune was at the bar with a man. I opened the message and then I saw that they were in the same room as the man who was with her at the bar. My knees almost trembled because I didn't think that for a month this was all Simoune was doing.

She even told me that she misses me but she is dating someone new in another country? How could she fool me when I did nothing but love her? Isn't that enough? Am I not enough!?

I immediately took my phone and quickly called her, I didn't know how to tell her what I saw because I was frustrated and I was disgusted with myself

"Babe, good evening!" Simoune said

"You're good too, aren't you? You still told me that you miss me but you already have a man in Canada. When is Simoune? How long have you been fooling me!?” I yelled at the screen of my laptop

“Bruce? Babe? I don't know what you're talking about?” She said

"How can you not know that you even look happy here at the bar and in the picture!" I said and then I showed her the pictures from the email

Simoune didn't speak yet, she immediately started crying, I don't know but my anger and displeasure with her still dominated but I let her say what her point of view was

"Babe, what's that about? I thought about telling you that for a long time but I couldn't say it" Simoune said

"Because what? Because you’re happy with someone else? I hope you at least told me Simoune so I don't look like a fool to you waiting here" I said

"Babe it's not like that, yes let's say that I lied to you that I went to the bar. I met someone who was my work mate and I thought they were kind and because I was bored and sad I went with them, I believed they were kind. When we got to the bar, they made me drink until I didn't realize that I was really drunk, I even tried to ask them to go home but they ignored me and because I was so drunk I immediately fell asleep on the bar table and I woke up with Paul with me" She said while crying

"But why didn't you tell me?" I said

"I didn't say because I was afraid you would leave me. I'll admit, Bruce, I kissed Paul maybe because I was drunk, but Bruce, I regretted it for a month, that's why you see me cry everyday because even me, hate myself. I've been wanting to tell you for a long time but I'm afraid you'll judge me, leave me and laugh at me" Simoune said crying in front of the screen

I don't know how to feel, I'm angry but I feel sorry for Simoune because I know she can't lie and maybe her co-workers really tripped her up. Today, I am more enlightened that her situation is difficult because she is alone in Canada and this is not the right time for me to leave her

"Let it go, forget what I said and everything I said earlier. I was just shocked" I said

"But I know you're getting frustrated with me Bruce, you can tell me if you don't want me anymore. I will accept that because even if the world is turned upside down, I still cheated on you and I still lied to you" Simoune said

"Are the people who set you up with you at work?" I asked

"They are leaving now, I am also happy because within a month I will also be free from their hands. Because from the end of that day, they did nothing but laugh at me and gossip in the company, so not even one of them talked to me because of what they did" Simoune said

"Why didn't you tell me earlier so that my anger would not dominate, you know that I would have understood if you had told me earlier" I said

"Babe, I was afraid to tell you about it because you might leave me. You're the only one left for me, so every night I pray that I can overcome this problem and now you know, the worst part is that I didn't tell you. Babe I'm sorry" Simoune said while crying

I don't know but I still managed to forgive Simoune, because I know what she says is true but you can't deny me that I'm hurt because I feel betrayed by the person I love so much but I can't do anything but accept it

"Leave it alone, rest because I'm going to work" I said

I immediately ended the call and ate breakfast disappointed, even though that happened I still felt sorry for Simoune but I still didn't accept it so I will remain silent for now. I'm thinking about what happened that night, because I’m not there, and there are so many questions in my mind that no one can answer. I believe in Simoune because she is my girlfriend and I know she wouldn't cry like that if she was just lying but what I hate are her friends who cheated and set her up, but let's admit that I also hate Simoune but I said this is not the time for me to blame Simoune because she needs me more now because I'm sure she feels like she has no allies.

I've taken care of myself until I can go to work, but that doesn't mean I've forgotten the problem that Simoune and I are facing now. Forgiveness is really part of a relationship, because if you can't do it, you won't be able to have a girlfriend especially with such a serious problem.
