Kenzie “Let’s go to your apartment for now. You should call Bruce on the way and tell him you found me. He can pick me up at your place,” she suggested.From the way she grinned, I’m sure she believed that was the best plan ever. I sighed, frustrated by her theatrics.“If you miss your husband that much, you should go to the mansion and see him. Why do you have to make him come all the way to my apartment?” I asked.She frowned at me, “You should be happy that I’m doing this. If you drive me to the mansion, you’ll have to drive back to your apartment. I’m doing you a favor right now.”“I don’t think you are,” I argued.“Well, I believe I am,” she replied confidently. “Now drive. You are the one who suggested your apartment to me in the first place.”“And I regret that. I won’t do it next time,” I replied.It was a silent drive from there on, interrupted by a few sighs and deep breaths.Natasha looked worried but still happy. I guess it was lovely to have someone to fight and bicker w

Kenzie“Who could it be?” Natasha stood up, ready to head to the door.I blocked her path with a fake smile on my face.“Err… I will check it out myself. You are a guest, you should remain here. Just make yourself comfortable,” I told her, pretending to be a pleasant host.She sat down hesitatingly and I walked to the door. The doorbell rang for the third time, haunting me now.I opened the door halfway and my guess was right. It was Kelvin. He was fully dressed for the evening and he even had flowers for me.“May I come in?” he asked. “I… Actually…” I was trying to speak properly but I couldn’t.“Is there a problem?” he asked, trying to check what was behind me.“Oh, it is Kelvin,” I heard Bruce’s voice behind me. That nosy man had finally caught up to what I was doing.I sighed, well knowing I didn’t really have a choice in this situation.“What are you doing here?” Kelvin asked him nervously.“There was a situation,” Bruce replied. “You should come in. I will explain things later.”

Natasha “I doubt you can explain,” he looked away from me. I knew what was happening. This was him clocking out before I could vent yet again. This time, I might be at fault too.I took a deep breath and touched him on the shoulder. That was enough to convince him to turn back towards me. Men are such easy creatures. If I were in his shoes, I would have played hard to get.“I’m sorry about what happened. Believe it or not, I felt really bad. I didn’t know I could be like that too,” I said, hoping it would help appease him.He looked into my eyes, his gaze piercing through my skin. He might be seeing my soul right now, who knows?“How long have we been together?” he asked.“A couple of months. Let me count,” I offered.“I mean, how long have we known each other?” he interrupted. “Err…” I hesitated for a moment.“I think it will be the third year soon.”“Exactly,” he pointed out. “It isn’t that long if you think about it but you’ve been in my close circle since then. You arranged my me

Natasha “Don’t you think I will feel lonely if both of you go out without me? I think it’s better we do something that would involve me,” Bruce told us gently.I exchanged glances with Abigail, hoping to meet a mutual agreement. Both of us replied at once,“No.”Bruce frowned. Although that was sleek on our own part, he didn’t like it at all.“You can go ahead and have fun then. I will do the same,” he replied casually. He faced his food now, eating like nothing mattered.Even though I was excited I would be spending the day with Abigail, I felt a little guilty for letting Bruce down. I wanted to do something nice for him to make up.“I will spend the day with Abigail but how about I spend tomorrow with you?” I suggested.He looked up and for a moment, I thought he was going to get excited. He wasn’t though, not really.“Tomorrow is Monday. I’ll be going to work,” he pointed out.“Ah, that’s right,” I nodded in agreement. “Sorry, I thought everyone was jobless like me. That was a nice

BruceI knew instantly that there was something fishy about all these.I didn’t raise an issue though, not in front of people I haven’t seen in years. I made a mental note to go to Kelvin the moment we wrapped up here.“We have a boxing match today between the Red Viper and Bullet today,” Baxter informed me.All of us in the group probably knew how to box even if we didn’t have a high level mastery. We had matches every Sunday and boxers usually adopted a nickname.For today’s fighters, I knew who Red Viper was. He was an amateur four years ago, I literally used to beat him in the ring.From how the guys spoke of him now, he must have improved a lot. As for the one called Bullet, he seemed to be a new member. Since I didn’t know him, he must have joined during my four years of absence.The referee was Baxter, of course and the guys picked sides. As I couldn’t play both sides, I chose the guy in the blue corner, the one I knew, Red Viper.The match started and I confirmed that he had t
