The man’s phone sat on his desk, surrounded by clutter. A photo of a smiling toddler was the wallpaper. The man had recently remarried and the toddler was his new child.
The man’s name was Kenji. He was 35 years old and had been married twice before. His first marriage ended in divorce after he was accused of domestic violence. His second wife also had a child from a previous relationship.
Kenji was a successful businessman. He owned a chain of restaurants and was known for his ruthlessness in business. He was also known for his womanizing ways.
Kenji’s new wife, Aiko, was 25 years old and had never been married before. She was a kindergarten teacher and was completely smitten with Kenji. She didn’t know about his past and was unaware of the rumors that he was already looking for a third wife.
One day, Aiko was cleaning Kenji’s desk when she saw the photo of the toddler. She asked Kenji who the child was and he told her that it was his son. Aiko was surprised because she didn’t know that Kenji had a child.
Kenji told Aiko that he had gotten a divorce from his first wife and that the child was now living with him. He also told her that he was looking for a third wife so that he could have more children.
Aiko was shocked and hurt by Kenji’s words. She realized that he had never been serious about her and that she was just a pawn in his game. She decided to leave Kenji and start a new life.
Kenji was upset by Aiko’s decision, but he didn’t try to stop her. He knew that he had treated her badly and that he didn’t deserve her.
Kenji continued to look for a third wife, but he never found anyone who could replace Aiko. He eventually gave up and settled down with his son.
The story of Kenji is a cautionary tale about the dangers of domestic violence and womanizing. It also shows the importance of communication and trust in a relationship.
I hope you like the story. I tried to use both direct and indirect expressions in the story. For example, I used direct expressions when I described the physical appearance of the characters and the setting. I used indirect expressions when I described Kenji’s thoughts and feelings.
I also tried to create a sense of suspense in the story by revealing the information about Kenji’s past and his plans for a third wife gradually. I hope you found the story engaging and thought-provoking.
