Macy's POV

"Babe..."

"Babe... get off me..."

"Oliver!!! Some people actually needs to go to work!!!"

I was trying to get out of bed but Oliver won't let me.

"Just call in sick...let's stay in bed a bit longer." Oliver pleaded.

"I can't. It's too late now. I've got booked consultations, you know." I explained.

"You don't really need to work." He rebutted.

I hated that last phrase.

"So, should I stay home and look after you and our kids? Pick up dirty clothes on the floor? I'm not a slave." I snapped at him.

"Whoa... whoa... calm down... What kids and dirty clothes? Since you lived with me, have you picked up any dirty clothes? For the record, it was your sweaty and dirty gym clothes that I had to pick up from the floor."

Oliver's honesty sometimes infuriates me.

"You are missing my point. I love what I'm doing and I am not planning to stop doing the things I love doing. Such as my job." I was really getting annoyed.

"Baby, just for today. Let's stay home please???"

I gave up.

I called the hospital and told them that I was feeling under the weather and was taking a sick leave. I probably have a lot of sick leaves anyway because I seldom use them.

I went back to bed.

"If we were really married, would you really ask me to give up my job?" I looked at Oliver straight on his eyes.

"The last time I checked, we are married."

"You didn't answer my question, Oliver. Would you ask me to give up everything?"

Oliver took my hand and kissed it.

"I won't ask anything that will make you unhappy."

I doubt that. We are only married for a short while and here I am taking a sick day from work because he asked me to.

"What if our 1 year runs out and we still won't work?"

"Baby, we will cross that bridge when we get there."  Said the playing safe Oliver.

Cross the bridge my ass! He always likes to give safe answers. I needed more than crossing a bridge! How can I trust him when he doesn't even have a long term plan. He says he loves me but his actions says otherwise.

And why did I ever got drunk at Vegas again????!!!!!

Today has been really slow. I think we got out of bed at 10:30. Lucky for Oliver because he could work from home. He made phone calls here and there. I feel sorry for his secretary.

"Babe, let's go for a bush walk. I'm getting sick looking at these four walls." I told Oliver.

"Aren't you suppose to be sick? It's a sick day." He said with a laugh.

"I really shouldn't have listened to you." I felt defeated.

"Baby, I'm just going to finish this then we'll go okay?! Time is money."

I honestly, shouldn't have listened to him this morning.

Oliver's POV

I didn't want Macy going to work today. It's an important day. We have reached a milestone. We survived a whole month without killing each other. That's why I insisted on her staying home.
