I want to run away. I don't know if it's right to write this here, but my wife was cheating on me, so I think I'm going to disappear.
Right now, my emotions are all over the place and I don't even know if I'm angry, sad, or ashamed. It's not just one emotion, it's a mixture of all sorts of emotions. Impatience, inferiority complex, regret, and so on.
And these complicated mixed emotions are constantly surging and changing. My goal is to sort out those feelings for myself by writing them down.
All I can do is write. I still can't believe this happened to me. Truth is stranger than fiction... as the saying goes. It would have been so much better if it had just been an affair.
Right now, I want to leave everything behind and run away. I want to leave my company, my mortgage, my parents, my parents-in-law, my children, and my wife behind and run away.
My wife is very observant of many things. Still, I want to prepare for my escape without her noticing and run away without her finding me.
First, let me write a little about me and my wife. I am a 38-year-old company employee. I've been married for 8 years and I'm just an ordinary company employee. I write novels as a hobby, and my only enjoyment is posting them on a free online novel site. I get excited when I get more hits every once in a while. I drink a little, but only one can of highball or chuhai a day for an evening drink. And it's low alcohol content, like 5% or 3%. I don't gamble at all. I don't cheat at all...or rather, I'm not that popular. I don't have any expensive hobbies, I send all my salary home and I have an allowance. We get by on 10,000 yen a month. My wife makes lunch for me, I don't smoke, and I don't go out drinking, so I can manage with 10,000 yen. In other words, I'm just an ordinary, boring office worker.
My wife is also 38 years old and beautiful. We were classmates in high school, and we met again when we graduated and entered the workforce. Miraculously, we started dating, and miraculously, she married me. She now works part-time as a cashier at a supermarket. She does all the housework and is a good cook. Her cleaning and laundry skills are nothing special, but they're not bad either. She does my laundry a few times a week. I don't wear dress shirts for work, so I don't have to iron it. Apparently she vacuums it once or twice a week. I've never been bothered by dirt or dust.
The child is 3 years old. A girl. Raising her was hard for the first few months after she was born, so I participated in childcare a little. She was a child that never slept, and I had to feed her every 3 hours, so I would hold her in the middle of the night and put my wife to bed so she could get some sleep. Recently, she's been talking a lot, running around, and doing well. However, she seems to catch a cold about once a month, so they seem to take her to the hospital quite often. She requires a bit of care, but she's a cute girl. She's cute in the sense that she has a well-proportioned face like my wife, has a lot of facial expressions, and laughs a lot.
...Or so I thought.
