Just them in me

Husband

"What are you doing?" asked Tay looking at New who is spreading the travel mat on the bed room floor.

" I.. I found this in the closet and thought i could use it..." New answered confused.

Tay tsked irritated... "Tsk... i am not asking about the mat, i am asking why are you planning to sleep down there when the bed is as big as a play ground..."

New's expression turned sad... "Because i know you wouldn't like it if i sleep there with you..."

"And who told you that...ha?" Tay made a mad face... "You and all the people out there, think that you are born to save the world, don't you?"

New watched Tay with mouth open in shock as he continued... " I am mourning the love of my life, you are right, and if you really understand what it means then you would know that, it doesn't matter to me who is sleeping on the other side of the bed or even who i am fucking for that matter, so stop behaving like you know me and come sleep on the bed..plus though I married you against my will, I did, and I understand my responsibilities, You are my responsibility now, and remember, I don't hate you, I just don't care about you more than I should..."

Tay plopped on to his side of the bed saying that. New nonchalantly turned to his mat spreading a bed sheet on it, that irked Tay to no end... "You..." he started loudly but New beat him.

"If you really know your responsibilities then you would know that its important to respect each other's decisions and feelings in a marriage, I can't sleep on a bed with someone who doesn't remotely love me..." That made Tay's eyes go wide both with more anger from defiance and the fact that whatever New just blurted out was true... "And if you think you have the right to order me around just because we are husbands then I will assume that i have right to your personal space too..."

"Youuu..." Tay started again but couldn't go on. He tried to calm himself down by  shutting his eyes tightly. By the time  he opened them again New was comfortably laying on the travel mat face up, eyes closed. Even in his anger Tay didn't fail to notice how ethearel New looked in that angle. It helped a lot in calming Tay down.

"You..." this time Tay's voice was calm... "You are right.. I am sorry..." Tay almost whispered. But New heard it and nodded slightly as an ackbowledgement before turning to his side and covering himself with the blanket. Having nothing more to do, Tay switched the lights off and went to sleep.

Tay slept like a baby , thank's to all the alcohol he had consumed. He only woke up when his alarm shouted into his ears for the eighth time. He checked the time and stretched. he used to be the first person to reach office though he is the boss, but he didn't bother to do it anymore. However he was a morning person, so his body couldn't help but be active and he was ready to go in 15 minutes. When he stepped into the hall way the delicious smells filled his nostrils and drew him towards the kitchen. The scene that welcomed him was his parents enjoying their breakfast smiling wide and New arranging vessels in the kitchen shelves. 

"Oh, You are here, come have some breakfast, Everything is your favourite and Did you know that New is a talented cook?" His mother greated Tay joyfully as soon as she saw him. 

"But don't take this as granted Tay, you have to wake up early and help out New from tomorrow..." His father advised. Tay only kept silent as he took his seat on the breakfast table and he was immediatly served with chicken roast sandwitches, kale juice and Lemon grass soup. 

"And wash your dishes immediately after you use them... It's not just you anymore..." His mother added.

"Mom, Dad, Your soup is getting cold..." New cut them before they could say anything more. They both smiled at him and continued having their soup. There was comfortable silence until after all the dishes were empty and once Tay stood up and picked his over coat, His father spoke again... "By the way Tay, drop New at his office, his car is not yet delivered and we will get late for the flight if we have to drop him..."
