Nathan Lawrence

I was retreating away from attaching our lips to prevent from any future hurting words that she would say but her next move surprised me but then I came into realisation that she is really kissing me.

I knew that I ignited her to do this but I did retreat away when our lips just a mere inches away and she took control in a swift move by pulling me closer to smash my lips over hers.

Lost, I felt totally lost and I was ready to take care of whatever hurtful things she had prepared to say next because just a mere kiss, I'm falling head over heels for her. I swooned her in my arms and gave in every mastery skills I had to pleasure my woman.

I felt the same need magnified in this kiss as our first time and I couldn't do anything else rather than pulling her impossibly closer. Not even a single blew of air could went pass us and she moaned softly when I parted her moisten lips to slide past my tongue so that I could took my gracious time to taste all bit of her.

She gave in right away and I was transfixed over her arms travelling around my neck. Her tiny fingers ruffling my hair were so damn tempting and encouraging at the same time. I wanted to kiss those lips forever and I would give anything to do it all over again.

Ungratefully, the kiss was ended shortly as I heard someone interrupting and when I was about to curse the person, I silenced myself while glaring at this two.

She apologized for coming in the middle but what's the use now. My wife was already blushing so red and I could do none to resumed our session. They left right away as let me to consume the goddess that I had caged in my arms.

Now, as she kissed me, I couldn't deny the fact that she's falling for me too and that I'm affecting her in a very good way.

My heart hammered over my chest when she gave me the assurance and I could shout to the whole universe that I'm in love with my wife.

I love her. I love Ishita, my wife, very much.

But I couldn't confess this before I could know her feelings about me. Or should I?

*****

A week had passed after the day and we are back to our old selves. I decided to play along her untill I could make sure that she's in love with me before expecting anything and we are doing good since then.

She would blush around all the time but there was this slightest different nowdays though, Ishita's been awfully onto herself and I could sense her dullness each day right now.

I didn't exactly know about what's the matter but I could roughly say about what's she missing right now.

I grabbed on my already packed up luggage and rolled it nearby to the door. I'm boarding on the next 2 hours as I had to attend an important  meeting in Japan.

My handphone's loud ring had take me out of my trance and I picked it up even though it's an unknown number, thinking that it might be an important call from work.

"Hey, bro. " Wait, I knew this voice. When I was about to cut the call, he spoke.

"I'm sorry, Nate. I know you are angry with me but she doesn't worth this bro and you know that you can trust me wit- " he was saying but I already cut him off.

"I had already warned you to not call me again and how many times should I tell you that stop badmouthing her. I love her, man. " I shouted angrily. Remembering the crappy day with him, which was a huge mistake of mine.

Flashback;

Kane nearly begged me to meet up in the terms of calling a truce. I agreed after sometime and we arranged to meet up at our usual spot.

I went there and he was already waiting for me on a table. I settled down infront him.

He looked at me for a moment and began talking, "What happened to you? You weren't the same Nathan I knew, she changed you, isn't it? " He was affirmative when he sounded so and I accepted right away.

"Hmm, but you know it's too bad that your going to spend the rest of your life with a witch. She had captive you under her spell and let me tell you that she will be bitc-" Before he could finish whatever he's trying to say right now, I stood up with a single punch on the table.

"Shut the fuck up. You have no rights to call my wife that and I came here, only because you wanted to call it a truce but guess what, I'm done with you. " I shouted at his face and before I was about to leave, I slapped him right across his cheek pretty hardly for calling my wife a bitch.

I ended his friendship that very day as he was still holding grudges over her. I just disown a friend of 7 years for my wife but I won't regret it because she definitely worth this and I love her wholeheartedly even if I'm still clueless about hers towards me.

"I'm saying this again, Kane. If you ever tried to call me and decides to badmouth about my wife again, I would kill you with my own hands. Now, fuck you. " I cursed hard and cut the call immediately.

I walked to the open balcony to get some air and the sounds of door unlocking clicked my anger down. She was here so how should I tell her that I'm going to leave for 3 days.

"Are you going somewhere? " she asked me suddenly and I was startled for a moment. How could she knew that I'm leaving? Oh, right. I left my luggage bag on the front of my door and she might seen it.

"I have a meeting to attend in Japan so I'm needed there right now. I was going to tell you sooner but you weren't yourself lately so I...don't want to upset you. " I informed slowly and she stood there without replying, herself looking lost.

Ishita Hassan

How do he know that I'm not myself lately? I'm missing my family so much as it hurts little by little everyday from seeing them and it's been a month since I saw them.

All I want is to be with my family, at least for a day and I would be rejoiced back but I was also a little hesitant to ask about this to Nathan.

"I'm...fine actually and did you packed up everything accordingly? " I asked him as I dragged the luggage onto the hall.

"Yes, it will be just for three days so no need that much of packing thought. " he answered and we were swirled in silence.

"I guess, it's time...for me to go now. " I heard him spelling quietly and he was scratching the back of his neck hesitatingly.

I took a few steps forward towards him and I engulfed him in a tight hear hug.

"I will miss you. " I whispered while exhaling his male cologne for the last and he wrapped me tightly around his big arms too.

"I will miss you too, wifey. " Even though, I hate that name, I still have some shivers running through my spine over the name.

When did I even start being this close and comfortable with him? Everytime before when we had a moment of proximity, the only thing that pop up in my head was the agreement but nowdays, it was only the last thing I have in my mind.

He kissed my forehead and he attended a call, which signaled him to leave already. I waved him goodbye and he kissed my forehead one last time again while grabbing onto his luggage, disappearing behind the wall that separates the elevator with us.

The house was quiet and cold as the breeze of airs entered through the balcony. I felt as if the big part of my heart had left me all alone and since when I did felt offended to stay alone in this house? Why am I missing him more than I do with my own family? Is this natural?

I fetched my handphone and decided to call my mother as usual to divert my mind away from him.

"Maa, good morning. How are you all doing today? " I asked, masking the bitterness I felt in my heart.

"Everyone here were just fine, darling. So, what are your doing now? Is there any work in pending? " she asked, somewhat making me curious about what she's upto.

"Every work is done, maa. I'm free now, why? " I asked back in enthusiasm of what's about to come.

"Great, so pack up, young lady. We will be there in 5 minutes and we will be expecting you to come quick to your lobby with the your clothes. Actually, you don't need to bring much either, we have your spare clothes in our house. " My mother says and I was smiling like anything. Nearly about to jump up and down for their surprise, but how do they know that I'm alone?

"Maa, are you serious? " I pronounced slowly and I heard my brother yelling from the other side, "Yes, dumbo. Now come down already. " I giggled at his annoyance and I dashed towards my room after cutting the call.

I missed them, I miss my family and my house. Oh God, I still couldn't believe that this is happening.

I packed up my bags and carried it right away to the front door, where I saw my brother standing there with his eyes narrowed over mine. He playfully snatched the bags away from me and walked ahead to the elevator as he waited for me to lock the door behind me.

I walked upto him and hugged him fondly. Oh, I really did missed this idiot.

"Oh, stop. The elevator's here. " he uttered in irritation as he was leaned away on the whole period of my hug and I slapped his shoulder.

We made it to the ground floor and I ran into my mother's embrace as she welcomes me with open arms.

We spent some movement of tears and set in the car but I was confused about something so I asked them straight away.

"Maa, how do you know that I will be alone for coming days? " I asked, rather curious if how did they find out. Like, I only knew this today so how do they make it here this fast as they knew it before me.

"Don't you know? Oh, I guess my son in law kept it as a surprise for you. " she said while tittering half-heartedly.

"Huh? " I was so damn confused by now.

"Oh, dear...he called me yesterday and told me about how distance your with yourself. He informed that he will be going on a business trip today, so he wanted to bring you back home with us till he came back. He's a nice man, you know. For once, I never regretted your choice because he was perfect in every way. " My mother says with a proud smile on her lips for her son in law.

"What? " I was astonished at what he had done and she was totally right about him.

With some chit chats, we made it home and my mood was pretty hooked by happiness as I used to be before.

*****

"Ishita, you're happy with your life right? " she asked suddenly as we were having our dinner at the dining table.

"I'm, maa. What kind of question is that? " I asked as I crunched the meals that cooked by my mother tastefully.

I missed her cooking and now, I'm stuffing my mouth like a squirrel.

"Nothing, dear. Just as usual as every mother ask their newly wedded daughter and you know, I was a little worried as if I forced you to marry quickly. I...I was too blind over astrology, didn't I? " she emotionally uttered, which isn't alike her at all.

"Amma, no. Maybe yes, you might so into astrology and stuff but you never rush anything. I'm happy with my life, I married the man who I...fell in love with. " I said the truth, with maybe a little lie at the end.

"Your watching many serials nowdays, right? That's why your so emotional. " I teased, enlightening her mood. She rolled her eyes at me and I winked at her.

After dinner, I surprised my father who just came back home from client's meeting and he was equally missing me as much as I do.

The night resumed with conversations of what happened the whole month.

She talked about how my brother and father missed me as my brother was lost for the first few weeks yet my father was all ready to move in next to my neighbourhood. She told me that it's a huge mission accomplished for her to convince this two men, who acts strongly on the outside, and sooner they started to adapt the new norm.

I just couldn't stop the tears that rambled on my eyes and I let it fall freely. My mother then advised me that it was usual to every married woman as they should leave their parent's house to get to their new home. I did really felt the real home at my parent's when they were with me but now I did felt it again, when I'm in his arms.

I couldn't stop thinking about him and I want to know of how is he doing right now. Did he land safely? Why didn't he call yet? Or is he waiting for me to call him?

I couldn't stop the blushes that erupt on my cheeks whenever I thought of our make out session and I really do miss him right now.

We call it a day and retired to our room. I was both giddy and happy as I laid on my bed, on my very own room which held so much of memories behind those bricks.

I closed my eyes to welcome the sleep but I couldn't make it. I was still worried over his wellbeing and I really wanted to know of how's he doing there right now.

Should I call him? What if he's busy?

My questions were cut short when I heard a notification popping in my handphone and I quickly reached for it, expecting that it might be from him.

Hey, wifey! It might be midnight there so good night and don't miss me much, just 2 nights okay😘

I giggled at his cute text message and my thumbs works quicker than I thought.

Who says that I miss you🙄? I'm super happy at my parents now and I loved your surprise, thank you☺️

I sent the message and he replied right away.

Ouch, my heart💔 and that's okay, I knew what you have been missing😌

I smiled like a maniac at the fact that he could read me like a open book and my heart danced happily by that acknowledgement.

Okay, I'm sleepy right now. Talk to you later, bye *waving virtually*

I sent it and he typed back.

Sleep tight, wifey *hugging virtually*

I let out a half-suppressed laugh and dive into the most peaceful slumber.
