Chapter 4

Author: Lubley
And the culprit behind it all was sitting right in front of us on the coffee table—the fragrant, still-warm family meal bucket.

…

It all started with Max's thoughtfulness. While we were shopping, he suddenly remembered his father was working hard alone in the office. He decided that we should share his "delicacy" with Kurt.

Since Kurt's office happened to be near the mall, I couldn't bring myself to reject the little one's earnest request. So off we went, full of excitement, straight to his father's workplace.

But in Kurt's eyes, Max's so-called "delicacy" was nothing more than "junk."

And so began the interrogation.

"Why would you buy this kind of garbage for Max to eat?"

I froze. I couldn't tell him it was Max's idea, so I shouldered the blame myself.

"Sorry… it was for me. Not for Max."

"So children shouldn't eat it, but you can?"

Kurt's brows furrowed so tightly, I swear I could have slid a playing card neatly into that crease and it would've stayed upright.

    "No, no, no… Kurt, Honey, listen to me. I swear I don't know him. He must be crazy. There's something wrong in his head. He's probably the type who freezes up whenever he sees a pretty woman.""Dasein Film Academy, Class of 2019, Acting Division Three. You're Peter Mason's student, aren't you?"The young chap's tears dried up instantly.I watched on, speechless."H-How did you know?" the young chap asked."Peter is a close friend of mine. Considering your little stunt outside of school, I think it's about time I had a serious talk with him—about you."The young chap snapped to attention, spine stiff as a board, then bent ninety degrees in a deep bow."I'll take my leave, Sir. Goodbye!"In a blink, he bolted faster than a rabbit!Since Kurt knew exactly who he was, did that mean… he also knew I hadn't cheated?"So you already knew this was all just a misunderstanding?""Otherwise, did you really think I'm that easy to fool? Now that this matter's settled, what I do want to ta

    Gradually, Kurt and I began to feel more and more like a real married couple. The chunk of my past that was missing seemed not as important as I'd thought. What mattered was that I was happy now.But the closer we grew, the more unsettled I became. I kept worrying that everything I had now would vanish the moment my memory returned. People really are contradictory creatures.True enough, another contradiction arrived in my life sooner than I expected.One day, Kurt and I went shopping to buy Max a birthday present. He went to park the car while I waited at the curb. Not far off, a young man called out to me."Emma!"He looked like a lively student—just a little taller than me—and his smile was pleasant enough. Maybe after getting used to Kurt's jaw-dropping looks, other faces barely registered anymore. The odd thing was I didn't know him, yet he acted like we were old friends."Emma, have you been busy lately? I called you a few times; it kept going to call waiting. What have you

    "I was waiting to eat with you," I said.Kurt ruffled my hair, then said nothing more. He simply gave me a small smile and handed me a packet of disinfectant wipes."Sanitize first. Let's eat."Just as I finished setting the lunch boxes on the desk, the office door swung open again."The food smells amazing. You don't mind if I join uninvited, do you?"It was Pamela.Instinctively, I stood up. "Hello, Pamela."She acted as if I were nothing but air. With brazen confidence, she ignored me entirely and seated herself right beside Kurt."There's so much good food, and you didn't even think to call me?"I froze awkwardly at the side, not sure where to place myself."Out."Kurt's tone was flat, yet his words landed like a resounding slap across Pamela's face.She turned sharply toward him, stunned.But Kurt didn't even bother to meet her gaze."Has no one ever taught you the most basic courtesy when entering a room?" he said nonchalantly.Her beautiful mask cracked in an inst

    My breath caught, and my entire body froze—like a shrimp thrown into boiling water.Only when Kurt's breathing steadied did I dare lift my gaze.Asleep, Kurt looked nothing like the cold, distant man I knew. Instead, he seemed gentle and princely—so striking it was impossible to look away."Can't sleep?" His low voice startled me. "Or are you hoping to do something else?"I snapped my eyes shut and burrowed back into his arms. "I'm already asleep!"Sleepiness finally crept in, and with his heartbeat steady against my ear, my consciousness drifted into slumber.Strange… in this moment, we didn't look like a couple about to divorce at all.…From that day forward, something between us began to shift.Kurt never mentioned divorce again, as if the agreement had been nothing more than a rash mistake.In fact, he started acting almost… clingy.At seven in the morning, he dragged me out of bed, insisting I make him breakfast."You promised you'd prepare me homemade breakfasts with

    On the way back, we took Kurt's car.Max had his own special child seat.I hesitated for a long while. Thinking of what had just happened in the office, I decided to sit in the back.My hand had just touched the door handle when Kurt's voice drifted lazily from the front."Do I look like your driver?"I froze, then quietly released the handle and fumbled for an excuse."No, I just… wanted to see the view from the backseat."He glanced at me, giving me the kind of look reserved for fools.The car hadn't gone far before Max fell asleep. Silence stretched between Kurt and me, thick and awkward, filling the entire car.I couldn't hold back my curiosity any longer. "Kurt… why did you marry me?"He kept his eyes on the road, his tone so calm it sounded as casual as deciding what to eat for dinner."What's the point of asking that now?"He was right. What meaning did it hold anymore? We were already on the brink of divorce.When we arrived home, Kurt went straight into his study.

    So, Kurt and Pamela were colleagues now?Kurt's voice cut through the air. "You lack sleep. Just get more rest."Pamela gave a soft, humorless laugh. "Rest? For doctors like us, rest isn't something we get to schedule at will. It's the end of the year—workload's heavy, staff's short. Even if I had twenty-four hours, it still wouldn't be enough."When Kurt didn't respond, her smile faltered. She cleared her throat, then shifted the conversation."By the way, I heard you and Emma are getting divorced. What's going on with you two?"Of course. Gossip.She might have framed it as concern, but her tone carried a flicker of glee, as if she were savoring the spectacle.What a conniving little act.Kurt lifted his brows and glanced at her. "Funny. Since when were you the type to care about gossip?""Come on, Kurt. Your sudden marriage announcement surprised everyone. None of us even knew someone like Emma existed in your life."Her hand, resting on her knee, clenched so tightly her n
