my name is Anna I am 33 years old I work in a hospital I am a nurse my job is to help sick people I work long hours every day I work during the day and sometimes I work at night I love my job because I like helping people before last year I was alone I had no boyfriend friend and I lived by myself I worked all the time and I was very tired after work I often visited my mother my mother lives in a small village she is old so I likeed to help her
too life was quiet and simple one day something changed a new doctor came to work at our Hospital his name is Michael Michael is 2 years younger than me he is 31 years old and he is very handsome he is tall with brown hair and blue eyes he smiles a lot all the nurses like him because he is friendly and kind at first I thought Michael would not notice me I am not very very slim and I'm just an ordinary woman I don't wear fancy clothes and I do not have long beautiful hair I did
not think Michael would be interested in me but then Michael started talking to me he was always kind to me he asked me how I was doing he smiled at me every day I was surprised I did not think someone like Michael would be interested in someone like me one day Michael asked if I needed a ride home I said yes he drove me home in his car it was a nice car and we talked the whole way we talked about work our lives and our families I felt very happy talking to him Michael was
was easy to talk to after that Michael often drove me home sometimes he would bring me coffee or tea at work we would sit together in the cafeteria during lunch and talk I started to like him more and more I looked forward to seeing him every day then one weekend Michael asked if I wanted to go to the movies we both had a day off so I said yes we went to see a movie together and after the movie we went for a walk we talked for hours I was so happy I thought maybe Michael
liked me as much as I liked him but then a few days later Michael told me something surprising he said Anna I need to tell you something I am married I was shocked I did not know he had a wife he never talked about his wife and he did not wear a wedding ring Michael explained that he had been married for 5 years his wife's name is Laura they do not have any children he said he was not happy in his marriage he said they did not have much in common they did not spend much
time together they had different interests Michael told me he liked spending time with me because I made him happy he said he felt comfortable with me he told me I was easy to talk to and he enjoyed being around me I didn't know what to do I liked Michael very much but I didn't want to cause any problems I started to think a lot I wondered why Michael liked me if he already had a wife his wife was probably very beautiful and I didn't understand why he would want to spend time with me I thought
about it every day I was confused I didn't know if I should continue seeing Michael or if I should stop I didn't want to hurt anyone but I was happy spending time with him a few days later something happened I went to the big supermarket in the city I was there to buy food as I walked through the aisles I heard a familiar voice it was Michael he was talking to someone I saw him before he saw me he was with a woman I guessed it was his wife Laura Laura was very beautiful she was
tall and elegant she looked like a model she wore expensive clothes and she smiled a lot they were laughing together and they looked very happy I felt sad I didn't know what to do I left the supermarket quickly I didn't want them to see me I went home and thought about it I felt confused why did Michael spend time with me if he had a beautiful wife why did he choose to talk to me I started to think about my situation I didn't want to be the other woman in Michael's life I wanted to make
the right decision but it was hard I knew I had to talk to Michael and figure out what to do later that night I couldn't sleep I kept thinking about Michael I thought about how kind he was to me and how much I enjoyed spending time with him but I also thought about his wife she was beautiful and looked perfect I didn't understand why Michael would choose to be with me when he had a beautiful wife the next day I went to work feeling tired and sad I didn't want to see Michael but I knew
I had to talk to him when I saw him he smiled at me like everything was normal but I couldn't Smile Back I needed to know what was really going on Michael we need to talk I said he looked at me confused what's wrong Anna he asked I saw you at the supermarket with your wife I said you looked happy I don't understand why you are spending time with me if you're happy with her Michael looked sad I'm not happy Anna he said Laura and I don't have the same connection that you and I have
with you I can be myself you make me feel alive I didn't know what to say I liked Michael but I didn't want to be the reason someone's marriage fell apart I decided to give myself some time to think I told Michael that I needed space over the next few days I thought about everything I talked to my best friend Sarah and told her about Michael Sarah is always honest with me she told me Anna you deserve someone who can be with you fully don't settle for less I knew she was right I needed to
think about my own happiness and what I wanted in life a week later Michael called me he wanted to meet and talk I was nervous but I knew I had to be honest with him we met at a park and I told him how I felt Michael I care about you but I can't be in this situation I said you need to decide what you really want if you're not happy with Laura you should talk to her but I can't be the other woman Michael looked sad but understood I care about you Anna he said
I will think about everything I just want you to be happy we said goodbye and I walked home feeling both sad and strong I knew I made the right decision but it wasn't easy life is full of difficult choices but sometimes we have to choose what is best for ourselves if you enjoy the story please like subscribe and share
