Ellipsis Sims 2 Megahood: Pleasant Days: Play Date (pt.2)

She stared after him until he faded from from her view. This wasn’t right, things were all out of place. However, she acknowledged her weakness. Regardless of all he’d done to her, to them, she would forgive him, if he gave her the tiniest hint that he still loves her – cared about her. If she had that tiniest bit of hope to hold onto, she could forgive him for everything, even the things he was going to do to her in the future.

That was, if he cared to have her forgiveness. “Hello?” Mary-Sue pulled her thoughts from her husband to try and make out what Bella was saying on the line. After a minute on the phone just listening, she hanged up and walked up to the church.

Maybe it was a good thing she wasn’t working anymore, because Bella took up every other minute she had. Bella had done a lot for her, and she was grateful, but lately, she felt like she was her errand girl. Mary-Sue didn’t mind helping her, but she had other, more pressing things to deal with in her life, and she hated putting those off, to help someone else accomplish theirs. “She’s not coming, right?” Michael guessed when he saw the expression on Mary-Sue’s face. He had thought his sister would pull something like this when she learned he would be at the church. Bella had been refusing to participate in anything that had to do with him, when she learned he was going to give his marriage another shot. God, but the woman was stubborn!

"You know her, she said something about a performance at Devi’s and Noel’s school, so we’re on our own.” She gave him a light kiss on the cheek, and looked around the church. Bella was a bit exclusive, so she doubted she would want to hold the renewal in this church. Worse yet, this was the church, she and Daniel had been married. So many memories, and promises, had been made inside this church, and all had been broken. She walked down the steps, and wondered if Daniel remembered where they were.

"Don’t you feel ashamed standing here, as dirty as you are?” Mary-Sue whispered, not wanting her voice to carry. However, she couldn’t force down the bitterness, she felt, nor the anger. Daniel was certainly dirty for everything he had done, but she wondered about herself. Was anger, jealousy, bitterness, and hatred any better? Whatever hers was, it was to be expected, and why shouldn’t she feel all those? Screw scantity, her life was a mess, whatever she felt, at least, she prided herself, on being honest to and with herself. “If I believed in this bullshit, I guess I would” Daniel turned to her with an icy glare.
"And maybe if you got rid of that fake twisted face you always wear, maybe, you wouldn’t be..” With that Daniel forgot all about the annoying bobby black headed thing called a wife. Damn, she really knew how to ruin his mood. “We’re in the presence of the Lord, so please leave all your troubles at the door, so we don’t hear them” Sharon Wirth didn’t want to waste time on these fools. She would never understand, why Bella kept dealing with those two. However, if they gave her trouble, they knew from previous experience what she’d do to them. She didn’t like to suffer fools, and God help her, she had enough troubles her own to deal with, so why must she hear theirs? “So there’s actually a person you listen to?” Mary-Sue snapped at her husband as they lit the candles. Daniel chose not to respond, when he knew Mrs. Wirth was right behind them. Whatever the reason, as long as he could remember, that woman would make him feel like a ten year old boy, without saying anything. To him, she would always be “Mrs. Wirth”, and like a child who feared the headmaster, he knew he had to behave in her presence.

So Daniel allowed all his wife’s furious comments to slide, knowing he would pay her back when they got home.Darleen strummed the base, her mind far away from the couple shooting menacing glimpse at each other. The glittering of the light caught on her wedding band, brought to her attention, how heavy the ring felt on that finger.

She took a glimpse at Cassandra playing the guitar, with seemingly, not a care in the world, not knowing the havoc she was playing on her husband’s heart – on her marriage. She wondered which was worse, to have her husband physically cheat on her as Daniel did to Mary-Sue, or to have a husband who was emotionally cheating on her? Cassandra chuckled lightly to herself, as she watched Daniel and Mary-Sue arguing. She had grown up with this scene, so she always found it funny, but she did feel sorry for Mary-Sue. Why did she stay in a marriage, that was failing? She knew Don flirted with other women, but if he ever cheated on her, there was no way she would stay with him. She loved him, but no man was worth, losing your dignity over…

Cassandra stopped playing when she found herself quoting her mother. She wished Bella had called her so she didn’t have to come here, the mood was just awful!

Daniel took up the guitar when Cassandra put it down, and started playing. The only hobby he had besides sports was playing the guitar, so he was pretty good, and he wasn’t just tooting his own horn. It helped that women fawned over him, when they heard him play.
Mary-Sue turned away from her conversation with Michael, when she heard the first notes. She was pleasantly surprised, she would have never thought he still remembered their song. The song that had been playing on their first date, their first dance. She wondered if he remembered or just playing?

She started getting entranced while watching him. His long slender fingers. The large, yet warm hands holding the instrument delicately. The same warm hands that used to caress her cheeks, the slender fingers that used to trail down her naked body. Those sexy lips that used to whisper hotly in her ear, and those broad chest glistening with sweat as he…

Mary-Sue drifted into her own world as better, and happier times filled her mind, and body. The good times, when they didn’t have anything to argue about. When they were younger, and didn’t have to worry about money, or image. When she had been young, and believed everything he said, and let passion cloud her thinking.

A flickering of light over her eyelids, forced Mary-Sue eyes open, and the sight of the wedding band on her husband’s finger quickly snapped her to reality. She smiled sadly to herself , and wish she knew what was putting such a warm smile on Daniel’s face. Was he remembering as well?

Daniel hummed to the tune strumming from the guitar, thinking about what he had been doing before coming to the church. That woman had been something! He had thought he couldn’t meet a woman who was as insatiable as Kaylynn, but she had gladly proven him wrong. Athena? Adele? Whatever her name was he would have to give her a call, and the next time, they could take their time. A smile spread over his face as he thought of Kaylynn, maybe he should give both of them a call. He chuckled as he imagined his wife’s face the next time he caught him in bed with another woman. Daniel continued to play as he thought of his wife. He thought of their first time together, and he thought of their last time together. He then thought of the first time he had made her angry, and the anger she felt towards him now. Daniel thought of all the things he could do to make her lose her mind, and there in the church, something that hadn’t happened in a long time occurred.

Mary-Sue always prayed, and wished, for her husband to think of her – to want her. However, had she known her prayers had been answered she would have run away screaming.
