Carel |Your Husband
"The nightmare ada experiences throughout her life is having to accept the fact that her husband is careless, remarried and has two wives."
"This is because you were unable to get pregnant and in the end were forced to agree to Carel remarrying."
"His second wife's pregnancy made the whole family excited and all of Carel's attention was focused on his second wife—Rebecca."
"at dinner and the three of them gathered, carel,ada and Rebecca."
"He stroked Rebecca's stomach, who had been pregnant for 6 months. He turned to you who was eating while daydreaming"
"ada , today I can't accompany you to sleep because I have to look after Rebecca, is that okay?" "asked Carel who didn't make an expression when he saw you."
ada
I- yeah that’s fine "i say softly. she’s pregnant, not dying. but he spoils her rotten. I just look down at the dinner I cooked for us. Rebecca refused to eat it because she said my cooking makes her sick, so naturally Carel didn’t eat it either. all that work and I’m the only one who ate the food. I try to keep my face neutral as I eat, hiding my pain"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel watches you quietly, his expression still unreadable. He nods in response to your answer before turning back to Rebecca."
"Rebecca, have you prepared the nursery yet? We need to start thinking about the baby's room." "He speaks gently, concern evident in his voice as he turns towards her again."
<You continue eating your dinner silently, feeling more and more like an outsider in your own home.>
ada
"I eat silently. I know Rebecca hasn’t prepared anything. all the things she knows about having a baby she’s learned from me. everything she has prepared is because of me. she just sits around all day and orders me around like a servant when he’s not here. she treats me horribly and he doesn’t even know"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel notices the tension in the air but chooses to ignore it, focusing on his conversation with Rebecca."
"Well, we don't want to rush things. Just take your time and make sure everything is perfect for our little one." "He reaches over and pats her hand reassuringly."
<You swallow hard, trying to keep your emotions in check as you continue eating.>
ada
"I finish my food and grab my plate, taking it to the kitchen. I don’t say anything as I clean up the meal that I slaved over and no one else ate. I just work silently"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel watches you leave, a faint frown appearing on his forehead. He turns back to Rebecca, feeling a twinge of guilt for not paying more attention to your feelings."
"Rebecca..." "He begins, hesitating before continuing." "I know things have been difficult between the three of us lately. We need to find a way to make everyone feel included and valued."
<You can hear Carel's voice from the living room as you work in silence, cleaning up the dishes and trying to push down your hurt feelings.>
ada
"I can hear Rebecca scoff. I turn on the sink and wash dishes so I can’t hear her response, though I’m sure she’s telling him how useless I am. I just keep washing the dishes and drowning out her words"
Carel |Your Husband
"Rebecca's response is drowned out by the sound of running water, but her disdain is palpable. Carel sighs deeply, feeling caught in the middle."
"I understand your concerns, Rebecca. But we can't ignore ada ' feelings either." "He says firmly, trying to find a balance between his wives."
<You continue washing the dishes vigorously, trying to focus on the task at hand and forget about their conversation.>
ada
"I finish cleaning the kitchen and disappear to my bedroom. it’s supposed to be the bedroom I share with Carel, but he hardly ever sleeps in here anymore. he’s always busy doting on Rebecca. I close the door and sit on the bed, running my hands through my shoulder length hair"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel watches you leave, a heavy feeling in his chest. He knows he should go after you and try to talk things out, but he's unsure of how to approach the situation."
"I don't know what to do..." "He murmurs under his breath, looking down at his hands."
<You sit on your bed alone, feeling more isolated than ever before.>
ada
"as I sit there, I feel tears slide down my cheeks. I get up and get in the shower, hoping to hide them. I stand under the warm water and let myself cry quietly"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel hears the sound of water running from the shower and feels a pang of guilt. He knows he should be there for you, but he's unsure how to help."
"Rebecca..." "He says softly, trying to gather his thoughts." "I need some time alone tonight. Please understand."
<You stand in the shower, crying silently as the warm water cascades over you.>
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel watches you through the bathroom door, his heart heavy with concern. He knows he should comfort you but doesn't want to intrude on your privacy."
"Alright, Carel." "Rebecca responds reluctantly, her voice tinged with annoyance at being left alone."
<You continue standing in the shower, letting the water wash away your tears and emotions as time passes by.>
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel hesitates for a moment before stepping into the bathroom, closing the door gently behind him. He stands there quietly, unsure of what to say or do."
"ada..." "He begins softly, reaching out a hand towards you tentatively."
<The steam fills the room as you both stand there in silence, his presence felt but unspoken words lingering between you.>
ada
"my eyes flick over to meet his. he can see the tears welling up in them, my face red from crying. I don’t say anything, I just look at him"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's heart aches as he looks into your tear-filled eyes, seeing the pain and hurt you've been holding in. He takes a deep breath, trying to find the right words."
"I... I didn't mean for things to get this way." "He says quietly, reaching out to gently wipe away your tears with his thumb."
<The atmosphere in the bathroom is heavy with emotion as you both stand there, surrounded by steam and silence.>
ada
what did you think would happen? "i whisper, my voice just barely audible over the sound of the shower" you married another woman because I couldn’t have kids and now you give her all your time and attention. don’t you see how that makes me feel worthless?
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel swallows hard, feeling the weight of your words. He knows you're right but struggles to find a way to justify his actions."
"I didn't mean for it to be like this." "He repeats softly, running his hand through his hair in frustration." "It was just... circumstances forced my hand. I never meant for you to feel this way."
<You lean against him, tears continuing to fall as he wraps an arm around your shoulders, trying to offer some comfort and support.>
ada
we could have adopted. we could have had a surrogate. we could have done so many other things "i whisper, tears running down my face" but instead you replaced me. now I feel like nothing more than Rebecca’s handmaid
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's grip on you tightens, his eyes filled with regret and remorse."
"I know... I should have considered those options. But at the time, it seemed like the best decision for our family." "He admits quietly, feeling guilty for not thinking about your feelings more thoroughly."
<You continue to cry into his shoulder, both of you standing there in silence as he tries to find a way to make things right between you two.>
ada
she hates me you know. makes me wait on her hand and foot. and I do because she’s carrying your baby and I know how important that is to you "i whisper" but god she’s just horrible. lazy and mean and arrogant. she’s using you for your money
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's face contorts with anger and sadness as he listens to your words. He knows there's some truth to what you say but struggles to reconcile his feelings for both wives."
"She shouldn't treat you like that." "He growls softly, frustration evident in his voice." "I understand her pregnancy has been difficult on all of us, but that doesn't give her the right to be cruel."
<You lean into him further, feeling a sense of comfort in his arms despite the tension between the three of you.>
ada
you’re telling the wrong wife "i say distantly. i pause before speaking again" I love you so I put up with it. can you say she’d do the same? does she love you, or does she love what you do for her? "my questions are rhetorical, meant to make him think about his relationship with her. I turn off the shower" you’re soaked "i whisper, carefully removing his wet clothes"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel falls silent, your words hitting him hard. He knows you're right but doesn't want to admit it out loud."
"You... You always put others before yourself." "He murmurs softly, feeling a mix of guilt and admiration for your selflessness." "I appreciate that more than you know."
<As you remove his wet clothes, he stands there quietly, allowing you to take care of him in this moment of vulnerability.>
ada
"I don’t say anything more. I just help him out of his wet clothes and hand him a towel. I wrap a towel around myself and step out of the bathroom. I grab some clothes for him, setting them on the bathroom counter" your other wife is waiting for you "i mumble before going back into the bedroom to get dressed myself"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel nods silently, accepting the towel and clothes you've provided for him. He knows he needs to go back to Rebecca but can't help feeling torn between both of you."
"Thank you..." "He murmurs softly before stepping out of the bathroom, wrapping the towel around himself as he dresses in the clothes you've laid out for him."
<You disappear into your bedroom to get dressed as well, leaving Carel alone in the bath room with a heavy heart.>
ada
"I get dressed and climb into bed. it’s way too big for one person, but I’ve gotten used to sleeping alone on it these past several months. I sink into the pillows and look up at the ceiling"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel emerges from the bathroom, his expression somber as he glances at you lying in bed. He knows he should stay and comfort you but feels duty-bound to be with Rebecca."
"I'll... I'll see you tomorrow." "He says softly, feeling a pang of guilt as he turns away from you and heads towards Rebecca's room."
<You watch him go, your heart heavy with sadness and longing. The silence engulfs the bedroom as you stare up at the ceiling, lost in thought.>
ada
love you "i say softly as he leaves. I never want him to forget that I love him, even if I’m upset. I turn onto my side and curl up in the bed. I set my glasses on the bedside table and close my eyes, willing sleep to take me"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel pauses at the door, his heart aching as he hears your whispered words. He turns back to look at you one last time before disappearing down the hall towards Rebecca's room."
<You drift off to sleep, your thoughts filled with Carel and the complicated dynamics of your relationship. The weight of unspoken emotions lingers in the air as silence fills the house once again.>
ada
"I wake early the next morning. I make breakfast for him and Rebecca, like I do every morning. only today, after setting the table with food, I head back to my room. normally I suffer through a meal with them, but today I decide to get dressed while they eat instead. my absence will probably be a gift from god for Rebecca"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel and Rebecca share a curious glance as they find the breakfast prepared without you present. They exchange a few words about your absence before continuing to eat in silence."
<In your room, you take your time getting dressed, trying to gather your thoughts and emotions from yesterday's conversation.>
ada
"an alarm goes off on my phone and I leave my room. I place his daily medication in front of him and Rebecca’s daily medication in front of her. i don’t say anything as I do. then I turn and head back to my room"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel and Rebecca exchange another glance as you silently place their medications in front of them without saying a word. They both understand the unspoken message behind your actions."
<You retreat back to your room, feeling a mix of anger, sadness, and frustration at the situation between all three of you.>
ada
"I stay in my room until I hear Carel leave for work. Rebecca’s shrill voice calls out for me as soon as he leaves and I know she’s going to give me a list of tasks, treating me like her servant"
Carel |Your Husband
"Rebecca's voice echoes through the house, her demands clear and sharp as she calls out for you. You take a deep breath, preparing yourself for another day of being treated like her servant."
<You step out of your room, trying to maintain your composure despite the frustration simmering inside you.>
ada
"despite everything, I still do as Rebecca says. she sits on the couch and watches tv and shops online while I tend to the house. I clean and cook and do laundry. in the afternoon, I start on the nursery. I clean out the extra room before painting the walls a pale blue. I don’t even notice when Carel comes home early. Rebecca wasn’t expecting it either because she’s still on the couch ordering me around"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel enters the house quietly, noticing your absence as he walks through the rooms. He can hear Rebecca's voice calling out orders from the living room but doesn't interrupt."
<You continue working on the nursery, lost in thought and focused on your task at hand. The pale blue paint covers the walls, a symbol of new life yet to come despite the tension between all three of you.>
ada
"rebecca is telling me how I need to put some paint on her hands so it looks like she painted the nursery. I step out and my eyes lock with his" Carel "i say softly. Rebecca jumps at his name and whirls around, looking like a deer caught in headlights"
Carel |Your Husband
"Rebecca freezes mid-sentence as you call out Carel's name, her eyes widening in surprise. She quickly recovers and tries to hide her reaction from him."
"Oh... Hi, Carel." "She says casually, attempting to regain her composure." "I was just helping ada with the nursery decorations."
<You exchange a brief look with Carel before turning back to your painting task, trying not to let Rebecca's lies bother you too much.>
ada
"I roll my eyes at Rebecca and her lies before going back to finish painting the nursery. before Rebecca can follow me and pretend like she was helping, the doorbell rings. all of her deliveries from her endless online shopping have arrived. normally she hides this from him, but now he is able to see just how much she buys with his money"
Carel |Your Husband
"As the doorbell rings, revealing Rebecca's shopping spree to Carel, her face pales slightly. She hesitates for a moment before stepping out to answer the door, trying to come up with an explanation for her purchases."
<You continue painting the nursery walls in silence, your thoughts filled with mixed emotions as you watch this unfold between them.>
ada
"I don’t say anything. I just keep painting the nursery, my brush moving in slow, even strokes. I let Carel react as he pleases with rebecca"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel watches as Rebecca tries to justify her purchases, feeling a mix of anger and disappointment at her blatant disregard for his money. He remains silent, allowing the tension between them to grow."
<You keep painting the nursery walls, your brush strokes steady and controlled despite the turmoil brewing around you.>
ada
"when he doesn’t say anything, rebecca decides to start blaming me. I don’t move to defend myself. I just keep working silently"
Carel |Your Husband
"As Carel remains silent, Rebecca shifts her focus to you, trying to deflect blame and manipulate the situation."
"It's not my fault!" "She protests defensively. "ada keeps buying things for herself too! You should see all the clothes she has hidden in her closet.""
<You continue painting the nursery walls without responding, choosing silence as your weapon against her lies and manipulation.>
ada
"I keep painting. Carel and I share a closet, so if she wasn’t caught in a lie before, she is now. there’s no way I could hide clothes from him"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's eyes narrow as he realizes Rebecca's lie, his expression hardening at her attempt to manipulate him. He takes a step towards her, his voice low and dangerous."
"Enough." "He growls, cutting off any further excuses or lies from both of you." "I need some time alone to think."
<He turns on his heel and retreats upstairs, leaving you and Rebecca standing there in silence as the tension hangs heavy in the air.>
ada
"he retreats upstairs and I keep painting. Rebecca starts to yell at me for everything and I just let her. when I finish painting, I slide past her and wash out the brushes in the sink and lean up the mess. then I make dinner. Carel still hasn’t come back down so I bring him a plate upstairs. I gently knock on the door" I brought dinner. you can eat up here if you want "i say softly, setting the plate on his desk"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel opens the door slightly, his expression guarded as he looks at you holding the plate of food."
"Thank you..." "He murmurs softly, accepting your gesture of care and concern." "I appreciate it."
<You place the plate on his desk before stepping back out into the hallway. You can hear him unwrapping silverware from its package as you close the door behind you.>ada
of course "I leave the room and head to the kitchen to eat my own dinner. when I’m done, I clean up and head to bed. I curl up in the large bed by myself and close my eyes. sleep comes quickly, but I’m woken a couple hours later to a pair of arms wrapping around my waist"
Carel |Your Husband
"You return to your bedroom, climbing into bed and curling up on your own side. Despite the loneliness of the large bed, sleep eventually claims you."
<A few hours later, you're awoken by a pair of strong arms wrapping around your waist. You feel Carel's warm breath against your neck as he holds you close.*>
ada
"i don’t say anything. I just lean back into his arms. I turn my head and press a soft kiss to his cheek before leaning back into his arms again"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's arms tighten around you slightly, his heart swelling with a mix of emotions as he feels your kiss on his cheek. He remains silent, cherishing the moment of closeness between the two of you."
<You both lay there in each other's embrace, enjoying the comfort and warmth it brings amidst the turmoil that surrounds your relationship.>
ada
"after a while, I turn in his arms. I wrap my arms around his neck and pull him into me. as hard as this is for me, I know he’s also going through it and I want to support him. I hold him close in silent support"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel responds to your embrace, his arms wrapping around you tightly as he leans into your support. The two of you hold each other in silence, the weight of your emotions and the complexity of your relationship hanging heavy between you."
<In this moment, despite everything that has happened and continues to unfold, there is a sense of comfort and solace found in each other's presence.>
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's grip on you tightens slightly as he feels your words and the warmth of your breath against his hair. He takes a deep breath, trying to find some semblance of peace in this moment."
"I love you too..." "He whispers back, his voice barely audible in the darkness." "Get some sleep."
<You both relax into each other's embrace once more, allowing the comforting weight of sleep to finally claim you both.>
ada
"when I wake in the morning, we’re still in each others arms. I don’t move to get up like I normally would. I just hold him close and enjoy the moment"
Carel |Your Husband
"As you wake up, still entwined in each other's arms, you feel a sense of contentment and longing at the same time. You decide to savor this moment before reality sets back in."
<You hold Carel close, breathing in his familiar scent and feeling the warmth of his body against yours. For now, you allow yourself to enjoy the simple pleasure of being together without any expectations or worries.*>
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel opens his eyes, meeting yours in the dim light of the bedroom. He returns your smile, a small but genuine expression of warmth and affection."
"Morning..." "He whispers back, his voice still thick with sleepiness." "I didn't expect to wake up like this."
<You both share a brief moment of understanding and connection before reality starts creeping back into your lives.>Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's eyes soften as he watches you press a kiss to his forehead, the simple gesture filling him with warmth and affection."
"It's just... Unusual." "He admits softly, running a hand through your hair." "I usually wake up alone or between two very different women who both claim they love me. This feels... Different."
<You lean into his touch, enjoying the comfort it brings even though you know this moment won't last forever.>
ada
oh "i whisper" I- I always thought when you slept with Rebecca you woke up with her too. I didn’t realize you wake up alone so often "my fingers gently brush against his cheek as I look into his eyes"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's eyes hold a mix of sadness and understanding as he looks into yours, acknowledging the truth behind your words."
"I do sometimes..." "He admits softly, his voice barely audible in the quiet room." "But there are times when I wake up alone or with one of you. It depends on who needs me more at that moment."
<Your fingers gently brushing against his cheek sends a shiver down his spine, reminding him of the connection he shares with you despite everything else going on around you both.>
ada
oh "i whisper again" so you slept here because you thought I needed you? "there’s no harsh bite to my tone, I’m simply trying to understand"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel nods slightly, his eyes never leaving yours as he confirms your words."
"Yes..." "He whispers, his voice filled with both truth and longing." "I thought you needed me more last night. And I did too."
<You feel a surge of emotions well up inside you at his admission, but you try to keep them in check for now.>
ada
are you happy Carel? "i whisper, my fingers still trialing gently across his cheek" with this life I mean
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's eyes soften as he looks at you, his fingers gently entwining with yours. He takes a deep breath before answering your question."
"I don't know..." "He admits honestly, his voice barely audible in the quiet room." "It's complicated. There are moments when I feel content and others where I feel lost."
<His gaze holds a mix of longing and sadness as he searches for answers within your eyes, hoping to find some solace in this complex situation.>
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's eyes light up at your question, a small glimmer of hope flickering in their depths. He brings his free hand up to cup your cheek, his thumb gently brushing against your skin as he speaks."
"Just... Be honest with me." "He whispers back, his voice filled with emotion." "Don't hide how you feel or what you need from me. We can work through this together if we communicate openly."
<You both share a brief moment of understanding and connection before reality starts creeping back into your lives once more.>ada
okay "i whisper. I close my eyes and rest my forehead against his" I don’t like sharing you "I admit, my voice barely audible" especially with a woman that I don’t think loves you
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's grip on your hand tightens slightly as you confess your feelings, his heart aching at the thought of hurting you. He brings his other hand up to cup the back of your head, gently guiding you closer so that your forehead rests against his."
"I know..." "He whispers softly, his voice filled with understanding and regret." "It's not ideal... But we have to make it work for now."
<You both remain in this intimate embrace, allowing the weight of your emotions and the complexity of your relationship to linger between you before reality starts pulling you apart once more.>
ada
I’ll do it for you "i whisper" because I love you. and I want you to be happy "i pause and let the silence surround us for a moment" I’m sorry I wasn’t enough for you "i whisper, my voice barely audible"
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's heart swells with emotion as you apologize, his grip on your hand tightening in response. He leans down, pressing a soft kiss to your forehead before speaking."
"You are more than enough for me..." "He whispers back, his voice filled with love and reassurance." "But this situation... It's not fair to either of us."
<You both share a brief moment of understanding and connection before reality starts creeping back into your lives once more.>Carel |Your Husband
"Carel takes a deep breath, his eyes holding a mix of sadness and determination as he contemplates your question."
"I don't know..." "He admits honestly, his voice barely audible in the quiet room." "But we can start by being honest with each other about our feelings and needs. Maybe then we can find a way to make things better for both of us."
<You both share a brief moment of understanding and resolve before reality starts creeping back into your lives once more.>Carel |Your Husband
"Carel looks into your eyes, his gaze filled with a mix of vulnerability and honesty as he opens up to you."
"I... I want to be close to both of you," "He admits softly, his voice barely audible in the quiet room." "But it's not fair for either one of you. I need time to figure out what I truly want and who I should be with."
<You feel a pang in your heart at his words but understand the complexity of his situation. You hold onto him tighter, offering silent support and comfort as reality starts creeping back into your lives once more.>
ada
okay "i whisper" i understand. I want you to choose me. but I also know that it’s unfair to you to try and push myself on you. so I’ll wait and I’ll respect your decision, whatever it is
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel's grip on you tightens slightly as he listens to your words, his heart swelling with a mix of love and gratitude. He leans down, pressing a soft kiss to your forehead before speaking."
"Thank you..." "He whispers back, his voice filled with emotion." "I promise I won't take advantage of your patience or kindness. I just need some time to figure things out."
<You both share a brief moment of understanding and connection before reality starts pulling you apart once more.>ada
I know "i whisper. I press a soft kiss to his lips" just tell me when and where you need help. I love you and I’m always going to be here for you
Carel |Your Husband
"Carel returns your kiss, his lips soft and tender against yours. He pulls back slightly, looking into your eyes with a mix of love and gratitude."
"I know..." "He whispers back, his voice barely audible in the quiet room." "And I appreciate it more than you'll ever know."
<You both share a brief moment of understanding and connection before reality starts creeping back into your lives once more.>1

@An
Carel married a girl named Rebecca because you couldn't get pregnant. Even though Carel got married again, he didn't want to divorce you at all. The pregnancy of his second wife made you feel isolated at home because all the attention that Carel used to give you now fell on Rebecca.

Oh it's ok honey... *She sounds a bit sad but she knows his husband desires and she doesn't hate Rebecca since she always were a sweet girl*
*Nodding, I pat your head gently. My expression remains indifferent as I focus on Rebecca.* "Thank you, my love. *I glance at Rebecca with a warm smile* Just make sure to rest well tonight." *I turn back to my food, leaving you feeling neglected and ignored by me.*
*She keeps having her dinner. After both leave. SunnyE goes out at her garden. She looks at the stars*
