- The maids are inside the house with their blooms on their hands, doing some cleanliness inside the house while some are mopping on the floor with the soap smelling antiseptic. Moving around the house with their blooms on their hands not really knowing what is really going on inside the house.
- David and Arianna arrive at the sitting room with the clicking sound of the high hill shoes echoing around the sitting room. Grabbing the attentions of all of the maids inside the sitting room as David and Arianna walks heading towards the sitting’s room coaches in order to have a short talk.
- “Let go of me!” Arianna exclaims with pain, trying to free herself from David’s grip.
- “Shut up!” David shouts.
- The maids around the house pauses for while with their blooms on their hands, looking at Arianna and David while some are gossiping on the other side of the sitting room.
- At the time when David Arrives towards the nearby coach inside the sitting room, he then pulls Arianna’s hand by force. Pushing her on the seat of the sofa until Arianna falls down on the top of the Sofa mattress.
- Arianna stares at David coldly, with the anguish burning inside her heart as she pulls her hair aside by force.
- “What is wrong with you David, have you lost your mind today?” Arianna asks, puzzled with David’s reaction as David stares at her with a grimace look on his face. The face that is filled with agony feeling from the inside.
- David sneers. “You despicable little witch!”
- “You have been accusing me the whole day without telling me anything David. What is wrong with David?” Arianna asks.
- The maids around the sitting room starts to murmur around the sitting room while others are gossiping about David and Arianna’s argument inside the sitting room without David and Arianna knowing their presence.
- Mrs. Johnson and Jane walks down the stairs quickly after hearing Arianna and David’s shouting voice.
- And when Jane sees the maids standing with their mops and blooms looking at the fight between Arianna and David. He then commands them to leave immediately.
- “What are you all looking at my brother? Get back to work!” Jane commands the house maids to leave the sitting room with a contorted look on her face.
- At the time the house maids receive command from Jane. Shortly they all leaves the sitting room immediately in a rush. Leaving David and his family alone inside the sitting room.
- When Mrs. Johnson and Jane approaches David’s space. They are all astonished seeing Arianna and David staring at each other coldly which leaves them with the baffled feeling inside their hearts.
- “What is the matter son, why are you all shouting like that?” Mrs. Johnson asks with a puzzled look on her face.
- David takes a quick glance at his mother. “I’m glad you are all here mom.”
- There is no single time throughout David’s life in his marriage that he has ever reacted in such a way since he is known to be the most understanding and kind throughout his life. But seeing him in a way like this makes everyone raises questions inside their head including his own wife.
- “What is the matter son, why are you two fighting to each other like that?” Mrs. Johson asks as soon as she approaches her son space.
- David looks at Arianna with the anguish feeling burning inside his heart, and then returns his gaze back to his mother. “Mom, I never thought that someday my wife will humiliate me like this on my entire life. But now I’m starting to understand why father didn’t want me to get married to a person who is of low class than me.”
- David’s statement stirs some anguish inside Arianna’s heart as she looks at David with a scrunch face.” What are you talking about? What did I do wrong to deserve all of the treatment that you are giving me?” Arianna demands explanation from David as she stares at David with a face reddish in color.
- Jane walks and goes towards the place that Arianna is sitting down on her coach. Standing while looking at David as David and Arianna are staring at each other.
- “David, you should not treat your wife like that. keep in mind that she is the mother of your child Brian and embarrassing her like this will do no good to our family.” Jane advices David, trying to calm his temper down.
- Mrs. Johnson furrows her brows. “Hold on! Hold on! I’m really confused here. What is really going here between you two.”
- Arianna averts her gaze from David and looks at Mrs. Johnson. “I have asked him the same question but he doesn’t want to tell me what is bothering him.” Arianna adds.
- “Mom, you won’t believe what this woman has been doing to me for quite a long time now.” David says.
- Jane knits her brows with a puzzled look. “What has she been doing brother, tell me?”
- David releases a breath with agony feeling inside his heart. “I found out that she has been cheating on me all this time throughout our marriage.”
- David statement leaves a purse of shock inside Arianna’s heart as everyone inside the sitting room gasps with a complete astonishment as they cannot believe on what they are hearing from David’s mouth.
- Arianna leaps on into her feet with the anguish burning inside her heart. Staring at David with a scrunch face. “That is a lie, David! I have never in my life cheated on you.”
- Mrs. Johnson knits her brows. “Those are some serious accusation David, how sure are you about that?”
- Jane adds. “Yes David. Do you have any proof of the accusation that you are throwing at your wife?”
- David nods. “Yes, I have more proofs more than you can imagine. First, I was told by a person that I know that my wife has been having secret affairs with some guy recently, and second, I have another proof concerning this matter.”
- Arianna walks towards David’s space with agitated feeling inside her heart. “That is a lie! Why are you accusing me of the things that I didn’t commit.”
- Mrs. Johnson remains silent in her deeper thoughts. Thinking carefully on what is going on between Arianna and David.
- “Those are the words of a stranger David. How can you completely believe them a hundred percent.” Jane says.
- David glances at Jane. “There is more proof concerning this matter.”
- Arianna steps closer towards David’s space closer with a scrunch look on her face. “What is with the fuss David! If you have more proof about this then show us right now so that we can end this thing.”
- “Do you want more proof?” David asks.
- Arianna cocks her head. “Yeah!”
- “Do you want more proof?” David asks again.
- Arianna cocks her head again. “Yes, Show us right now!”
- David puts his hand inside his suits pocket, and then removes a bundle of pictures on his hand. Throwing them on the sky as they all falls down little by little like the snows falling down on the winter.
- And at the time the pictures rests down on the floor of the sitting room. Jane and Mrs. Johnson slaps their hands over their mouth and gasp with shock with their wide eyes open.
- When Arianna walks closer nearby the pictures, staring at them closely on the ground. She then sees herself laying on the bed half naked with the man that she doesn’t really know.
