The sound of the alarm slowly began waking me up , I rubbed my eyes and stretched while still laying.

I turned to my left to see my husband and sadly , he was not.

Strange , He usually sleeps when I get up to make his breakfast and lunch.

I , however slowly sit on my bed and look at the window. It looks so peaceful outside except for the turmoil inside me.

Not wanting to be late , I stand and wear my slippers and make the bed. I take my phone and switch off the lights and fan , going to the washroom.

I do my washroom routine except for taking a bath which I will do later once I am free from work.

I reach the kitchen and see a note kept on the slab. "I will eat my breakfast and lunch outside."

I honestly felt bad but glad as well that at least he bothered to tell me. I had thought that I will only apologize to him regarding yesterday when I give him his breakfast , but it doesn't seem to work like that.

It was still early so I decided to do something else rathar than eating breakfast. So I took a book and sat in my gallery reading it with nice cool winds.

Later

After reading atleast ten chapters , I decide to take a bath. So I take out a nice top along with a plazo to wear with it.

I strip out of my clothes and stand under the relaxing shower. In the midst of all my tensions , I get relaxed by the shower.

It feels like as the water pours on you and goes down the drain , the same way problems which are in my head will also drain out.

Under the shower , I think about Hoon. How we used to shower together not in a physical intimate way but just sweet bathing moments together.

Him washing my hairs and massaging my tense muscles along with little kisses here and there. And I , massaging him and making him relax.

I feel so alone standing right now. How bad I feel nobody can understand except me.

I am scared thinking about this but I think my love for Hoon is also fading day by day.

I am holding onto our marriage but it feels like the thread of our bond is breaking slowly.

I shake my head , pushing the thoughts aside and push my hairs back and allow water to splash directly on my face. I remain under the shower for atleast half an hour and finally come out of it.

I do my skincare routine and wear my clothes. I , then go inside the kitchen and prepare a sandwich and orange juice for me. I enjoy my breakfast while watching Netflix side by side.

It was lunch time now and Hoon hadn't called me even once. I take my phone and dial his number.

He doesn't pick the call at once so I call him again. "Yes" Is all he says.

"Hello Hoon , how are you?"

"Good and what happened why did you call me?" I again felt bad. He could have also asked me how am I but he didn't.

"Well I-I just called you to ask how is work going and did you eat your lunch?"

"Yes I ate food....anything more?"

I fight back my tears and gulp my saliva.
