There were womens clothes on the floor, and when I walked into the bedroom, I saw him with another woman…
London
Oliver and I had been together for just over three years, sharing a happy and trusting relationship. Wed already met each others parents and were starting to plan our wedding. Everything seemed perfectI really thought Id have children with this man and grow old together.
The day he returned from a business trip, we didnt have any special plans, but I wanted to surprise him. I took the day off work, baked his favourite cake, and drove over to his flat. Luckily, I had my own set of keys. While he was still asleep, I even had time to put the kettle on and set up for some morning tea with the cake.
As I quietly opened the bedroom door, before I even stepped inside, I nearly tripped over something on the floor. The room was dark, so I turned on my phone torch to see what was in the way. Scattered across the floor were womens clothes, and when I stepped in a bit further, I saw him sleeping, arms wrapped tightly around another woman.
They were sound asleep, so I didnt make a scene. I simply closed the door behind me, left his favourite cake and my keys on the kitchen table, then walked out. It was cold outside, and I couldnt bear going back to my parents house, so I sat down in the local park and cried. After a while, a man came over and sat next to me, gently asking if I was alright. I didnt mention the betrayal but somehow, our conversation flowed naturally. Before I knew it, I was at his flat, drinking a cup of tea and sharing a bit of my story.
Now, we live together and are planning our own wedding. Looking back, I truly believe fate brought us together that daynothing in life happens without a reason.
