HE'S MARRIED



I put my arms around Millie as she sobbed away ... almost uncontrollably!




He was so perfect for me ... he knew all of those things about me ... he told me that he was the one for me, that he was the one who knew about our powers ... he told me that he was mine forever!




Her tears rolled down her cheeks, her body was shook with the full force of her emotion.




'Maybe it was a misunderstanding ... a mistake?' Marcus seemed like a really decent sort to me ... I was confused, yet I had been known to be wrong about the opposite sex on a few occasions!




'Talk me through what he said, let's see if we can work this out.'




I rubbed her back and as she thought about what I was saying she gradually calmed down.




'well I rang his mobile and she answered',




'How did you know it was his wife?'




'She answered the phone and said Hello, Mrs. Etterton speaking ... can I help you.'




'How do you know she was telling the truth.'




'Marcus took the phone from her ... he confirmed it'




'Did you give him chance to explain?'




'He didn't need to, he told me they were in a hotel room together ... he never told me he was married ... he's a liar ... he's a lying bastard!'




'Something doesn't add up her, let me call him, I want to hear what he has to say.'




'You can't, his number was in the phone, it's broken .. I broke it.'




I picked up the smashed cellular and looked at it, I pressed the power buttons it had had it.




'i can't call him till tomorrow, even if I wanted too.'




Millie had stopped crying and a different look had appeared on her face, one of defiance.




'I want to get drunk with some rock stars'




'Are you sure?'




'Yes', she replied ... ' as drunk as I've ever been!' She dropped the photos of Marcus in the feminine hygiene bin and we went back to the bar.
