Tarzan sighed and wrapped his arms around her."Shhh, it's okay. I'm not angry anymore.""I'm sorry. I shouldn't have⊠I'm sorry⊠I made stupid decisions today and it kept getting worse." Lena sobbed into his chest."You made a mistake, and it's okay⊠I'm glad we resolved the issue. Look at me," he whispered.Lena hesitated and glanced up at him. Tarzan held her chin and kissed her forehead."You may not believe this, baby, but I don't remember why I was angry at you.""Try something else," Lena said with a frown.Tarzan laughed."I'm serious. It's like my memories got erased.""Stop!"She hit him playfully on the chest, and Tarzan pulled her into a tight hug, still laughing."My wife is so adorable.""Don't call me that.""Don't call you what?" Tarzan asked innocently."My wife?""No⊠adorable. There's nothing adorable about me today."She pouted.His smile widened."Would you prefer I call you my cute wife instead?"Lena lifted her head to glare at him, but before she could complain
She looked up at him and gently touched his cheek.âPlease smile for me again. Iâm sorry.âTarzan looked at her for a moment before his gaze drifted downward to her handsâmore specifically, to the fingers resting against his chest.His expression changed.âWhereâs your engagement ring?âLena froze.Oh, no.Her eyes followed his gaze to her bare finger. That was when she realized, and she quickly pulled away from him.âItâs in my bag. Iâll put it on now.âTarzan watched in silence as she reached for her handbag. She unzipped it and began searching through it, her fingers moving hurriedly among her belongings. Finally, she found the ring and pulled it out.âThere!âLena smiled nervously as she slipped it onto her finger, then turned to Tarzan.âHappy now?âTarzan didnât smile.âWhy are you not wearing it before now?ââI had to cook, so I took it off. You know itâs not hygienic to wear jewellery while preparing food.ââYour classes ended two hours ago,â he said flatly.Lena looked down i
A dull ache settled in Lenaâs chest. Tarzan glanced away, then looked back at her. âI know how much cooking means to you. I know how hard youâve worked for it, and I donât want you to think that being with me means you have to give up any part of yourself. I just donât trust him. Thatâs all.â âNoâŠâ Lena started, stepping closer. âBaby, I didnât mean it like that. I misspoke. Iâm sorry. I shouldnât have said you always oppose my dreams. You never have. You support me in so many ways, and I know that.â Her voice softened. âI just want to do this on my own, okay? I want to know I can accomplish something without relying on your money or your connections. Not because I donât appreciate everything you do for me, but because I need to prove it to myself.â Tarzan studied her for a long moment before forcing a small smile. âI understand.â But the smile didnât reach his eyes. Lena wanted to close the distance between themâto hug him, kiss the tension from his face, and reassure him that
Lena turned to Tarzan and the excitement that had begun to blossom inside her faltered. âBabe? Please say somethingâ Lena pleaded softly. Tarzan met her eyes. âIâll get you a cooking show myself,â he said. âIf thatâs what you want, Iâll arrange one. You donât have to work for him.â "Babe,â she began, shaking her head, âyou can't keep buying me everything I want.â His eyebrows drew together. âWhy not? I am your man." "I know baby, but I want to work for it. I love how much you want to do for me. I know you want to make things easier for me, and I appreciate that. But I also want to work for the things I love. I want to learn, to grow, and to build something of my own.â âThen build something of your own,â Tarzan replied flatly. âI'm not stopping you.â âThen why are you opposing this?â "Because the man standing in front of us has just confessed that he's been in love with you for twenty years!â âAnd I've already told him I don't love him!â âDo you expect me to believe th
âWhat the hell are you talking about?â Lena snapped angrily at him. âWhy donât you tell him I was your first love in middle school?âAdrian replied. Lenaâs eyes widened. Tarzanâs head jerked toward her. âYour first love?â âNo!â Lena burst out. âHe wasn't my first love! Yes, I had a crush on him, but Mitch wasââ She paused abruptly. The look on Tarzanâs face made her stomach drop. Oh God.Sheâd just made it worse. âListen to me, please, baby,â she pleaded, stepping closer. âI only had a crush on Adrian because he was the good looking boy in my calss who won the junior cooking competition. It wasnât just meâhalf our classmates liked him! I was fascinated by his talent, that was all.â Adrian raised an eyebrow, the corner of his mouth lifting. âGood looking?â Lena ignored him and continued. âBut it lasted two weeks. Two weeks. It was a stupid schoolgirl crush.â âIt was just a crush for you,â Adrian said quietly. âMine lasted two decades, Lena.â Lenaâs mouth fell open. Tarz
The message I sent to my husband Mitch was left unanswered. Just like the ones I sent days ago⊠weeks ago. He had stopped replying to my texts. I scrolled through the one-sided conversation, my heart tightening at how pathetic it looked. Suddenly, a message popped up. Hoping it was his reply, I
MITCH'S POV I was staring at the TV replaying highlights of the match weâd lost 3-1 with bottles on the table in front of me. I cracked open another one, trying to flush down the frustration inside my chest. My childhood friend Jake walked in from the kitchen, towel over his shoulder, and rai
I forced myself up and walked back into the bedroom Mitch and I had shared for three years of our marriage. I hadnât slept in that bed for over two years now. Not since I left it. Every morning, he used to wake me up to complain about my snoring. I apologized. Then⊠I started staying awake
I met Mitch fifteen years ago at a coffee shop. I was sixteen, working as a store assistant and trying to look like I had my life together. I still remember what I wore that day. A faded white sundress scattered with tiny yellow flowers. Sandals laced around my ankles. Mitch was standing in
