I could hear the urgency in Marco's voice, and my annoyance quickly transformed into concern."What's the matter, son? Is everything alright?""I just really miss you, Mom," he replied.His words touched my heart, but I couldn't help but feel annoyed that it was his father who had prompted him to call me and ask me to come home earlier.Nevertheless, I remained calm as I spoke to Marco."Don't worry, I'll be there soon. Is everything okay with you and your dad?""Yes, mom. What time will you be home?" Marco inquired."As soon as I can," I assured him."Just wait for me there, my dear. Would you like me to buy you a cake?" I asked, trying to lighten the mood."Wow, I'd love that, Mom! Thank you!" Marco responded, clearly delighted by my offer.After ending the call, Elijah asked me who had called, and I informed him that it was Marco."Marco is waiting for me to come home.

"Let's play pretend and act like a couple just for tonight." he said.My mind couldn't comprehend what Marcus was asking of me. He wanted me to play the role of his loving wife for just one night? I furrowed my brows in disbelief and shook my head, unable to find the right words. "What?!"His eyes pleaded with me, begging for understanding. "Please, just listen to me. I know it's a big request, but I promise it's only for one night. I want us to have an opportunity to connect on a deeper level and truly understand each other."His sincerity was undeniable, and I couldn't help but let out a sigh as I settled down on the couch beside him. "Why, Marcus? We're already great friends. We don't need to pretend to be something we're not."He gently took hold of my hand, his eyes reflecting a tinge of sadness. "Friends? It's obvious that we're not really, and there's always been something more for me. I can't help but wonder, what if we had a chance to be like that? Just for one night, I want

After a while, we embraced each other tightly before parting ways. I quickly wrapped myself in a cozy blanket, trying to shield my vulnerable state. Taking a deep breath, I couldn't deny the undeniable truth - this was more than just a physical connection. Our eyes locked, silently acknowledging the depth of our emotions. A wave of self-hatred washed over me, as I knew deep down that this was a betrayal to my fiancé. What on earth had I done?Tears threatened to spill from my eyes as I failed to protect my own heart. Determined to distance myself, I abruptly stood up, only to be pulled back by Marcus. Our gazes met once again, and his sweet words weakened my resolve.

I replied, feeling annoyed.I could sense Marcus's gaze on me, but I refused to meet his eyes. Dealing with him right now was the last thing I wanted, especially after what happened between us last night.As I descended the stairs, I could hear him following me. Taking a deep breath, I tried to calm my nerves before finally turning around to face him."Can we talk, Sam?" he asked."About what?!"

I questioned, struggling to maintain a steady voice."About what happened last night. It's proof that you still have feelings for me," he said, his voice softening."Why don't you give us another chance, Sam?" he implored."Are you out of your mind?! It was a mistake, fueled by alcohol.
