Enticed - Season 1 - Episode 31

Trisha
I sat next to Henry in doctor Montsho’s office. She was the therapist that Henry had hired so that we fix our marriage after I said I want a divorce. I remember how he suddenly turned pale the day I mentioned the divorce… I thought he was going to faint. But he begged me to give him a chance he even suggested we see a therapist but seeing him broken like that hit me and I agreed I just don’t know how come I have fallen in love with a man like this one. We agreed that if the therapist doesn’t succeed in making me change my mind in a month then we are getting a divorce.

Montsho: so how are you Trisha?


Me: I am trying to deal with life.

Montsho: the last time we met I said you and Henry should talk.

Henry: we ended up arguing.


Me: because he wasn’t trying to cooperate.

Montsho: what exactly what were you talking about?

Me: the truth…. Henry is so afraid of the truth… I want him to tell Emily about her mother and tell Zenzele about what he did…

Henry: I am not afraid of the truth… that will only cause an unnecessary feud in the family.

Me: henry… if you don’t deal with this now… they are going to haunt you in the future…

Henry: babe…

Me: do not babe me… my life is messed up because of you Henry… I am trying to restraint any more damage… please.

Henry: do you know what this could do to my family.

Me: not as much damage as it has caused to mine.

Henry: (exhales) babe I am really sorry.

Me: well sorry doesn’t fix anything right… a secret is the trigger of the gun that ruins everything.

We both turned and looked at the shrink… she was just staring at us not saying anything and taking notes.

Me: if he doesn’t agree to this… I am never coming back here and he will be forced to sign the divorce papers.

The shrink looked at Henry and he just kept silent… does this mean he is ready to sign the divorce papers. I felt a lump form in my throat… I just want him to do the right thing and I don’t want to lose him… but if he isn’t prepared to do this then I am not prepared to live my life holding secrets. I looked at him trying so hard to stop tears from dropping. He looked at me but said nothing. A tear dropped and I closed my eyes, this is it. I took my bag and stood up. He held my hand and pulled me down again.

Me: leave me alone henry…

Henry: okay I will do it… I will do whatever you want me to do… just don’t leave me. I need you in my life… Emily needs you.

Relief brushed through me. That’s all I needed to hear from him. That he will do it. He pulled me into his arms and I really couldn’t stop the tears. I really didn’t know why my heart doesn’t agree with my mind.

This man who I love so much has made my life so miserable and I know that he is not good for me but my heart is willing to give him another chance. I don’t know for how long I was on his chest but when I finally pulled back my eye lids were heavy. I looked at the shrink, she gave me a tissue and a reassuring smile.

Montsho: how do you feel now Trisha?

Me: you want me to be completely honest

Montsho: as honest as possible

Me: I don’t know… I have mixed emotions.

Montsho: what about you henry

Henry: I will only be happy if she is happy

Montsho: now our next session is after four days… we will see how much you have grown. As for now… our time is up.

Me: thank you
