Love After Marriage

Julian

My heart was pounding so hard that If someone is beside, they will probably hear it. Thinking about what happened few minutes ago, I feel all hot.

I had come to see her work hoping to spend a little time with her. Her boy was sweet just like her. She made me a cup of tea which I enjoyed as we talked about stuffs. We hardly experience awkward until I asked about her work. She took me to the room. I can see she was nervous which made me to keep am emotionless face.

As we walked up to the room, I can feel the steady staring from Claire watching me closely. I wondered if she normally bring people here to show them this. I mean this feels kind off personal to me.

You don't show people your work often? I asked

I don't trust me you are actually one of the few people" she said reaching the door

I feel special" I intentionally said looking at her face go all pink. I didn't expect her to say anything else which made me a surprise when she said I was. I could feel myself go all hot again but I was thankful she wasn't looking. I think she was trying to avoid me seeing her blush without knowing I was doing the same too

She opened the door allowing me to step in first.  As I did, I caught a glimpse of her perfume, the smells so nice that I wanted to the a deep breath but that will feel so weird so I didn't

The room was a bit dark so I waited for a moment for my eyes to get adjusted to it. I looked around seeing different pictures of people thoroughly arranged. I looked at them watching them as I move from one picture to another while she follows me. She kept on looking at me while showing me. I can see her staring at my face, trying to figure out what I was thinking but I made sure not to show anything. She was having a difficult time trying to read me which I was enjoying.

Her work was very neat and it shows the dept, mood and everything about the person. She was passionate about it, I can see why she chooses to get married to keep her passion. I saw one picture, a picture which I knew immediately she's the one. I think she didn't remember about it. It was a nude picture of her probably when she's younger. She looks beautiful in them that I didn't know when I said it out loud. On a normal circumstances I should have remove my eyes and move over it but I couldn't. She was the best image among ll that I see. I asked her the reason behind it and she told me. I can't believe someone as beautiful as herself doubted being beautiful.

I want you to take my picture" I didn't know when I said it. I can't even imagine I said such

W - what did you say? She stutters making me regret it. I mean who asks their friend to take a nude picture of them. That was stupid

Does that sound weird? I mean it's fine if you don't want to" I say trying to sound like I wasn't fluttered with the idea of it

No it's not weird --- at all but we can schedule it next time" she responded surprising the shit out of me. I wasn't sure she was going to accept it, I mean thing might feel a bit uncomfortable for us after. 

My phone rang again, I mean I knew when it rang the first and second time but I chooses to ignore it. It was my dear husband who know the exact time to ruin a moment. I excused myself picking the call.
.
Where are you?" My husband ask like he really cares where I am

I went to meet one of my publisher" I didn't know why I lied I mean I could have said I went to see Claire, he would have been thrilled that I'm making effort with one of the richest companies daughter

Right well come back home, I need to have a word with you" he said not caring to know of my schedule. He always do like everything always revolves around him but I needed to go back home or else hell will break loose.

I have to go something came up" I said to Claire after cutting the call. I hope she doesn't ask what and I was happy she didn't

When are we doing it" I asked about the photoshoot which we were talking about few minutes ago

I will get back to you" she answers tucking some hair that fell out of her face behind her ears. It was something so simple but I didn't know why she looked damn hot doing it. I looked away picking my stuff not wanting to make her notice I was checking her out. I told her to tell Jason I said goodbye remembering her beautiful son. Jason was a great kid and the beauty was definitely from the mother's side

She escorted me out even though she as no reason. She wasn't her me enter my car ad drove off. Few meter away from the house, I looked through my rear window to see she still watching me, I smiled at that thinking if I was the reason while she's still out waiting for me to go far before going back in. At least part of today is went great. My smile stayed with me until I reached home to see my dear husband in the sitting room probably waiting for me.
