He looked very happy because I just kissed him. He looked like he was really happy and I couldn‘t make out if he was acting or not.
I slept uncomfortably that night.
It was because Lance was hugging me too tight.
It was already 10 in the morning when I woke up.
Lance woke up earlier than me and when he saw I opened my eyes, he asked, “Morning. Did you sleep well?”
He was about to kiss me and I quickly covered his mouth with my hand, “Morning breath.”
He smiled and he looked good when he smiles, not kidding.
“It‘s okay.”
He wanted to pull my hand away and I said, “I don‘t feel okay with it!”
He stopped smiling and he looked like he was hurt because of what I said.
If we were just a normal couple, we would be fine with this whole incident.
But we weren’t, I couldn‘t say that I don‘t feel okay when I am with him, he would feel like I hate him very much.
And indeed, I hate him.
“Get up now.” He let go of me and walked into the bathroom.
I didn‘t want to brush my teeth in the same room with him so I stayed in bed for a while.
He walked out of the washroom and said, “Get up now, aren‘t you hungry?”
I nodded. I was really hungry.
He wanted me to make a promise to be a good mother. And being a good mother for Lexi means I would have to listen to every order he makes.
