Writer Wednesday, Arabian Nights...

It's another #writerwednesday. Olivia and Raymond have been going through the ringer about his ex-wife Bethany and her attachment to him. It's definitely placed a strain on the marriage. Here's a snippet of the goings on in their lives...

BEJEWELED: STANDING STRONG
*************************************************************************
“Come on, everyone, let’s get inside. I think the ceremonies are about to start,” Olivia stated, pointing in the direction of the auditorium. The lobby was emptying as people made their way to their seats.

She opened her little gold clutch after feeling it buzzing underneath her arm. Glancing at her phone inside her purse, she saw Raymond’s picture lighting up the ID.

“Ladies, go ahead without me. I’ll be in there in just a sec,” she said, pushing the green phone icon.

“We’ll save a seat for you, Mrs. O,” Maia stated, following Darla, Belinda and the other staff inside.

“Yes?” she answered after she walked to a corner alone.

“Where are you?”

“I’m here at the show. Where do you think I am?” Her heart beat rapidly as she wondered what he wanted. She really didn’t want to argue with him right now. All she wanted was a peace of mind to take in this awards show with her.

“I mean exactly where at?” he asked again in a husky tone.

“Ray, what is it you want? The show’s about to start in a few minutes and I don’t want to miss a moment of it,” she stated in a sterner tone than she meant.

“And neither do I.”

Olivia spun around and saw him walking through the entrance doors. She tried to hold a firm and obstinate attitude. But her heart melted at the sight of the love of her life walking through those doors. He wore white linen pants with an open collared white short sleeved dress shirt and a white linen jacket tossed over his left shoulder.

“Why are you here?” she asked.

“You think I was gonna let you do this by yourself? Besides, I’d be a damned fool to let you out the house in that dress alone. Come on, let’s go,” he stated, grabbing her by the hand and escorting his wife through the auditorium doors.
