Surprises and Heartbreak

Salome Pov

“Laura, are you sure he will like this? Carlos doesn’t really like surprises” I said to my best friend, she was helping me get into a tight night gown so I could finally woo my husband to bed.

Carlos and I have been married for a year now, not for once has he bothered touching me. I have tried so many times to make myself look attractive to him, even went to the gym to get myself fit, after a couple of days I gave up.

I am actually fat, but in the modern world we call it plus-sized. However, Carlos looked past all that and we both fell in love, we’ve kissed a couple of times since we started dating three years ago, but never for once has he made a move on me.

I am starting to get worried that one day someone might steal him away from me, so I have decided not to let that happen and I have finally embraced Laura idea of seducing him to bed but now I am starting to re-think the idea especially since we’ve been trying to get me into this sexy night wear, Laura bought for me.

“You and Carlos relationship is stagnant because you don’t try something new” She smiled at me, “That looks better” she said after I checked myself on the mirror.

I had to admit, she was right. If this doesn’t get Carlos to sleep with me, I don’t know what will.

“Thank you, thank you…. you are such a life saver, I don’t know what I would do without you” I rained kisses on her faces as I expressed how happy I was.

“Probably still be a lost virgin” she teases, “Pop that cherry tonight or I will be angry you wasted all of my effort. I better get going before your husband returns home, you know how he hates me being around you”

“No he doesn’t….” I defended my husband a little dowdily because I know it was true, Carlos doesn’t like Laura.

“Bitch, he fucking called me a bad influence, If that doesn’t say I hate you, then I don’t know.” She said. Laura pulled me into a hug, “Sleep with him tonight okay, I don’t want you calling me at 12am to tell me it didn’t go as planned”.

She carried her bag from the bed and left the room.

I stood at the mirror again, admiring myself. My heart was starting to beat really fast as I anticipated the moment. Carlos sliding his hand, down to my vagina, fingering, making me scream his name while my eyes roll to the back.

I could also try out those sex positions that I read from my karma sutra book. I have had so many fantasies for a long time now but Carlos just want to remain celibate which isn’t good for me.

I am someone who doesn’t have that much luck in men because of my size but when Carlos came into my life as my secretary, I knew that I have hit a jackpot. Though I was crushing on him so badly, I never for once tried to tell him, he was the one who told me that he likes me.

Carlos was really bold to do that, which made him even more attractive to me because I am his boss at work, then. Now, that we are married and I took over dad’s company, I made him the vice president so he would be close to me like before, though so many people opposed it, calling him inexperienced.

It is because of that, Carlos works really hard to prove them wrong. We work at the same company but I never get to see him because of the business trips he takes in my place, doesn’t want to get me stressed.

I can’t stop gushing cause my hubby is really sweet, I just wish he would come home sooner, I don’t know for how long I want to stay in this night gown.

“Madam Rosario, where is my wife?” Carlos asked from downstairs, he is finally back.

I can’t believe it is already time…… God! I can’t wait, my hands are already seating thinking about it.

“She is in the room, sir” Madam Rosario replied.

“All right, thanks” Carlos said as he ascend the stairs, I could hear him hasten his feet as my heart beat even faster.

He opened the door to our room to see me standing before him, “Welcome home honey” I said with a smile, trying ridiculous poses to make myself look sexy.

His face turn dark as the smile he had on his face disappeared on seeing me, like he was unimpressed.

I knew this was a bad idea, I don’t know why I listened to Laura in the first place.

He still hasn’t said anything to me as he stared me up and down as if he was disgusted. “What are you wearing?”

I was disappointed in myself for letting him down as I said, “Never mind this, how was your trip?” I tried to change the subject but he didn’t want to as he persisted on asking me again, I knew I would have to answer him if he asked the third time of which he did when I still won’t respond.

“It’s just something I put on, it’s not a big deal. Why don’t you go take a shower?” I suggested to him but he still won’t budge. I finally gave up as I decided to tell him all that I was actually feeling, “When were you going to touch me, Carlos?”

“Is that why you went to spend money on that!” He pointed at my night wear like it was the most horrifying thing he has ever seen in his entire life.

I couldn’t tell him this was a gift from Laura as I agreed with him, “I only wanted to surprise you and that is it. I thought that maybe if I do this, you will finally sleep with me”

“Well thank you for the surprise” he threw his hand up as he moved away from me, “But Salome, I still do not want to sleep with you” he admitted, quite painfully.

“What? Wh….what…..” I tried saying as tears welled up in my eyes, my voice sounding a little jittery.

“Oh now, you’ve lost your voice. How on earth do you think I would want to sleep with someone like you” He blurted out unapologetically.

I was confused. Never have I ever seen Carlos this way before and now I want to apologize because I feel it is my fault he is acting this way, if only I didn’t get so greedy in wanting to sleep with him.

“Carlos I am sorry, this was a stupid idea and I am sorry.” I apologized to him but he wasn’t taking it likely as he continued, I am actually willing to apologies to him the entire day just to make him calm.

He raked through his hair, showing how angry he had become. “Before we started dating, do you know what your employees called you?” he asked rhetorically, I know people talk behind my back but I don’t know what they actually say. “Rude, ugly, and fat! But I looked beyond all those insults and I chose you”

“Carlos I know and totally understand, let just drop it.” I pleaded again.

He shook his head, “Not today, I want you to get this straight before I come home next time and see another one of your surprises. I did you a great favor by marrying you when no other man would even bother looking at you, I did. So, instead of you been greedy by asking for more why don’t you first be grateful to me”

I tightened my fist as I swallowed hard, “Favour? What do you mean by you are doing me a favour”

“I thought you were smart, I mean you are the president of your father company, you should already know by now. I’m going out, when I get home I want you out of that thing you are wearing” He banged the door really loudly as he went out of the house.

I cried inside of me as I slowly take the night gown off, I thought this was going to be the best day of my life but it ended up being my worst. I really want to escape from all of this.

I would normally call Laura if things doesn’t go as planned but tonight I know she wont pick because she specifically told me not to disturb her, I decided to drive over to her place instead, maybe I could even sleep at her place tonight. I don’t think I can be able to face Carlos tonight because of how angry he was.
