Mr Wife ☑️

chapter 13: Drunken confession

Sky's POV

I still sit in surprise as why Eco suddenly left the room without saying a word. His behaviour confuses me sometimes and I just don't understand him most of the times which is literally always.

Though I'm not sure, I guess he got angry because I said I already ate my lunch. But what's the big deal about it? I woke up almost 3 hours ago, took a bathe and got ready. I was waiting for him to wake up so that we can eat together but he wasn't waking up and I was feeling so hungry as I didn't eat anything after yesterday's dinner. So, I ordered a meal for myself and had them delivered it to the room because I didn't want to leave him alone in the room. Is it so wrong?

With the speed and anger he went, I don't think he'll even remember that we have a driver for us here. I unlock my phone and call the driver, my old man has given me his number yesterday itself.

"Hello?" The phone rings for a while before he answers the call.

"Hey, this is Sky." I tell him and continue, "my husband has left the room. He's going somewhere out. Ask him where he would like to go and drive him there."

"Okay, sir." The driver replies at my order before we hang up the call.

I get a call back from him few minutes later.

"Sir, your husband didn't tell me where he wants to go. He didn't want me to go with him and walking alone." The driver informs me.

I bite my lips in nervous.

"Just follow him and keep me updated. Share the location, I'll come there myself." I tell him and after getting an okay from him I cut the call.

Eco has such a short temper, I swear.

Grabbing my wallet and room keys, I leave the room and head out. The driver keeps me informed about Eco's whereabouts and told me Eco actually went to a pub. I follow the directions and reach the pub.

"Sir, your husband is inside." The driver says.

"Thank you. I'll bring him. Wait here until we return." He nods when I ask him to stay.

I look at the pub once before I make my way inside. I never really went to pubs and clubs in my life. I don't know how these look but this particular one does look so fancy and has this elegant vibes. The blue lighting is giving the richness and the song that's playing around is a little loud. Maybe to make people feel like dancing. I roam my eyes all around as I search for Eco and I find him sitting on a corner with another guy. Who is the other guy though? There's are so many empty tables. Why would two strangers and unknown customers sit together?

Regardless, I make my way to him and as I approach him, my eyes narrow because the other guy has his hand on Eco's shoulder and leaning onto him. Eco is trying to push him away but the guy looks persistent as he's even trying to make Eco stand.

"I said leave me alone." I hear Eco whining as I near them.

His voice unusual and blurring. Did he drink so much that he's wasted now?

"Come on, I'll help you stand up. I already have a room booking upstairs." The guy utters while trying to make Eco stand.

"Noo!! Leave me." Eco couldn't even push the guy away when he tried.

"Stop screaming! Be quite and just go with me." The guy gets angry and shouts at Eco.

I frown in anger and fist my hands as I stand in front of them. They're not bothered to look at me as Eco is wasted and the other guy is busy trying to take Eco with him as he hold him around his waist.

"What?" The guy asks me when he finally notices.

At his words, Eco looks up at me after trying for a while as his head keeps falling downwards and his eyes keep closing.

"Baby~~." He calls me out and holds out his hands.

The stranger guy eyes widen as he glances between Eco and I. When he finally gets the realisation, he instantly let go of Eco who slumps down on the seat behind and tries to run away when I grip his wrist in a tight hold and pull him back.

"Ahh." He winces in pain and tries to free his hand from my grip, "I swear I didn't do anything. He was drinking alone so I just accompanied him."

"I heard the whole conversation. If you were just accompanying him I don't think you need to take him to a room, jerk." I twist his hand which earns not only his cries but sounds of his bones broking.

"Sorry. Please leave me. I thought he's alone and wanted to have some fun time. He just looked so good and pretty that I couldn't help myself. I'm sorry, sir. Please let me go." He reasons out his filthy act.

I twist his hand again and make him face me as I give him a hard punch on his stomach before finally letting him go. It's for shouting at Eco, I know for one if Eco is sane he would have given 10s of such punches to the guy. He stumbles and runs away as holds his stomach with the uninjured hand. I watch him leave and turn Eco to see him sitting, his head swinging around as he sat unconsciously. I sigh and shake my head as I go and sit next to him.

"Eco?" I call him while holding one of his shoulder with one hand and his chin with other as I make him look at me.

"Baby, y-you're here." He mumbles while slightly opening his eyes.

I gulp and clear my throat. The way he's calling me baby is making me feel something. My mom always calls me baby but it's sounding so different when it's from Eco.

"Enough now! Let's go, you already caused a lot of trouble." I scold him.

"It's not m-my fault." He says a bit loudly, even being drunk this guy sure didn't forget his attitude, "it's your f-fault." He points a finger at me.

"My fault?" I query confused.

I just helped him and now he says it's my fault.

"Y-yes. I was thinking everything that happened between us and it made me sad so I came here to drink. You ate without m-me. You said many mean things to me. You said I have attitude and ego, that my behaviour is spoiled. You called me loud, annoying, irritating, brat and you even gave me a name as sound system. You know I'm not that bad. I liked you the first time I saw you. I'm so happy to marry you but you said you regret marrying me. Don't regret marrying me, baby. I may not be like your mother but I'll love you more. I promi ~~." He drifts off to sleep while speaking.

I feel a lump formed in my throat at his words. To think and realise that I actually said all those things to him when we're married only just for a day, I feel ashamed. I made him feel sad by saying many mean things and the most disgusting thing is saying I regret our marriage. I was so wrong to do that. Actually I don't have any right to say such words. They all have given me the chance to meet him and know him. But I chose to ignore it and directly married without really knowing anything. I didn't even try to at least get to know him without having to fight with him. He made me lose my temper with his attitude but I crossed my limits. I thought my mom would be sad when he finds I regret this marriage but didn't think Eco will be more than hurt to actually told by me that I regret marrying him. Maybe I'm still seeing him as an outsider and that's why his feelings didn't matter to me. I was such a fool. I may not like him but that doesn't mean I hurt him. I need to control and keep myself in track.

I look down at Eco who is laying unconsciously on my chest. As I stare at him I can't help but feel sorry. I'll apologise when he comes back to senses. But for now we need to go to our room. With that thought, I stand up and carry him bridal style as he's not in the situation to walk on his own. I put his bag to one side and walk out of the pub. Seeing me, the driver helps me by opening the door and I mumble him a thank you before sitting in the car with Eco still attached to me. Once settled, the driver drives us to the hotel as I look down at Eco for a moment before I look away with a sigh.
