Two weeks have gone by since Dad left me, the moon shining inside the water, I stood near the sea with a pot filled with his ashes admiring the reflection of the moon in the water. I'm going to miss you I said I poured it into the sea. He held me close to him as the ashes disappeared into the sea. Since Dad passed, I had to move back to my mansion, we can't leave the maids there alone.

Let go he said.

Just give me some time to say goodbye to him, I plead.

Not going to happen, remember the last time I did that you almost killed yourself, never leaving your side.

I wasn't trying to hurt myself, but I don't blame him, I brought this upon myself. Let's go, I said.

We left as we walked back to our car, he drove off as we both entered the car. He parked in front of the house as we reached the house, I walked out and went in with him behind.
Inside the house, the maids gathered to welcome me as usual. This time I didn't just walk past them but stopped to communicate with them. Sebastian stood beside me to watch me.

We will lay off some of you, I said bringing confusion to their faces.

Did we do anything wrong, they all asked.

No, I just think it's best to let you all go, I said. I could see the sadness in their faces as I dropped the bomb. I'll get back to those that will remain working here, I said and left for the room. I didn't want to see anyone begging on their knees to let them stay. Inside the room, I walked into the bathroom to have a shower, he sat on the bed watching my every move until I disappeared into the bathroom. He's my husband but still, he acts as my bodyguard.
I walked out with a towel to my body, he was no longer in the room. Where has he varnished too, I thought? He walked in with a glass of water, it seemed he was tasty that's why he left.

I thought you were not coming back, I said hiding my joy.

Just went to get water, he said raising the cup.

I noticed, I said, and went to my wardrobe to pick out clothes to change into.

I'll go have my shower, he said as he placed the glass on the table before going in.

I brought out the lingerie I bought before my wedding for our special night. It has been a month since we got married, and he hasn't touched me, not even a kiss. Tonight I'm going to make it special, I blushed. As the bathroom door knob turned I quickly jump on the bed and cover my body with the bedsheets. He walked out wearing only a short. I'll be sleeping on the floor tonight, he said and went to the wardrobe to bring the bedsheets to spread on the floor with a pillow too.

The bed is enough for the two of us, but the floor is cold I don't want you to get sick.

You have a point, he said and went to lie on the end of the bed.

Seems my plan is working, I smiled. I waited for him to feel relaxed before jumping into his arms. I sat on his belly with our faces facing each other.

What are you doing he said startled, on my God what are you wearing he shouted as he saw me in my lingerie.

Don't you like what you're seeing, I said trying to be seductive.

Can you just get off me, you're killing me with your weight.

Are you calling me fat, I asked.

Even if you weigh less, remember you on my belly, he said.

Fine, I said and sat on his thighs. Do you feel better now?

He gulped down hard, what do you think, do I look fine to you? If you want to help just get off me, what do you even want from me?

We are married, I want you to touch me, I want to have your babies.
