In fact, it wasn't until this morning that I realized I was unwell.
While I was joyfully making Oliver's birthday cake, he snatched the ingredients from my hands and tossed them straight into the bin.
"Don't bother, I don't like it anyway."
He had clearly enjoyed it before.
Cautiously, I pressed further, "Oliver, are you upset about something?"
Head bowed, he handed me his tie, "Charlotte, help me with my tie, will you?"
Before I could finish, I unexpectedly lost control of my bladder.
The living room was left in a sorry state.
The dripping liquid beneath me left me momentarily stunned.
What... was happening to me?
Oliver's usually composed expression tightened instantly.
All he did was crouch down and clean the floor in silence, not uttering a single word.
I followed behind him, helplessly and somewhat lost, "Oliver, I... I don't know what's happening to me..."
He washed his hands repeatedly in the bathroom before finally saying, "You're sick."
As he spoke, I detected an unmistakable hint of disgust on his face.
I thought that if it weren't for the years of hardship we'd endured together, Oliver would probably be eager to end things with me.
After Oliver left for work, it took me a long time to come to terms with my illness.
Uneasy, I went to his office around noon, only to find Eleanor downstairs.
She seemed to have fallen, covered in dirt, with Oliver's expensive coat draped over her shoulders.
Her gaze towards Oliver was filled with longing and reluctance to part.
Oliver pretended to be indifferent. However,the moment she lowered her head, he was caught staring at her, lost in thought.
And then, there was tonight's incident.
