I came home late again. Adam is furious, he is yelling at me. His angry voice makes me cry.** I can’t handle being yelled at. **His anger is not the same as him calm it’s completely different. The next thing he says makes my stomach sick. He yells, “Are you cheating on me!”

Everything is silent, but I need to fight back, I need to tell him my secret. He cuts me off. He says, “ You are aren’t you?” He starts yelling again and accusing me for cheating. I find the courage to yell back at him. “Oh Adam! Just listen to me and stop yelling!”

He goes silent. “I’m not cheating on you, I swear,” I admit.

“So? What is the reason you come home late? Do you have a whole other life i don’t know about!”

“In fact I do,” I affirm.

“What is it? What is this ‘other life’?” He questions.

“I- I’m Lady Venus,” I confess. The saying of it releases a huge weight off my chest.

“Stop joking around V, this is serious,” he yells.

“I’m not joking!”

“Prove it then.”

I take off my jacket revealing my orange and purple suit. I put my hand in the pocket of my jacket and reveal my mask. I put it on.

“Oh my gosh”

“See I’m not lying, I love you,” I hug him.

“ Why didn’t you tell me sooner?”

I let go of him and take a breath and say, “ I was afraid you wouldn’t love me anymore”

“I couldn’t never stop loving you dear,” he runs his hand on my cheek and smiles softly and kisses me gently on the lips.

“Me either,” I say back.
