I just swirled the shiny glass of vodka in my hand and stared blankly at it.Since the day my wife went to her house, my mind has been blank, it's like I've lost myself. Even when I go to sleep at night, my eyes do not close even for a blink.Even if I go to work in the office, my mind is not in one place to work with attention.

My emotions are all over the place and so is my mind.

"Mr.Kim? Are you okay?" I heard the voice of my business partner Mr. Thomas. I looked at him sitting on the leather sofa in front of me. "You look lost. Don't you like it here?" he asked, running a finger around his club.

He entrusted the construction of his new hotel to our company. So to talk about it, he invited me to his club for a drink. For the sake of  business, I came reluctantly to the fact that I couldn't refuse it. Now we are sitting in the VIP section of his club. Honestly, I have no desire to stay here. But I can't even say that to his face.

"No, nothing like that. It just makes me feel a little tired. You know, after a long day." I said placing the glass of Vodka on the table in front of me. I didn't really take more than two sips of it. With what happened last time due to my drunkenness, I am tired of alcohol now.

It used to help me with the problems in my head, but now I see it as something that creates new problems.

"Oh, I see, I'm sorry, I didn't really think much of it, that's why I asked you to come." He apologized. "let's call it a night,then. We can talk about this in your office, right?"

"Of course." I dragged myself off the leather sofa. Before shaking hands with him."Give me a call before coming." I informed him.

As soon as he nodded, I came out of the VIP section. My guards were already standing there by the door. "Let's go." I said giving my coat to a guard.

We walked out of the club past sweaty bodies and club rocking music. I don't really like clubs. They irritate me. I don't like how people drink to lose their brains and act like crazy.

Fortunately no one came to my body due to the guards surrounding me. Because if that happens, with the situation I'm in now, I'll lose the last bit of patience I have left.

As soon as we came out of the club, my driver pulled the car to the entrance. My guard opened the door for me and I quickly got inside. The time on my watch shows that it is seven in the evening. She must not be asleep yet.

As my driver started the car engine, I pulled out my phone from my pocket. I took my bottom lip between my teeth and thought for a good minute whether to call or not, and however finally decided to call.

I put the phone to my ear and  heard it ringing. I know her phone is with her mother. As the third ring finished, I heard Aunty Romano's voice.

"Oh hello Auntie Romano, did I disturb you?"

"No, no, son, what's the matter?"

"Can I talk to my wife?" I asked. There was a little silence, I waited for her answer. I heard a few measurements in the background. I recognized that familiar voice, it was my wife. That means she's not asleep, which is good because I need to talk to her now.

"Uh, sorry, son, but now she is sleeping. She fell asleep after taking the medicine." she said. But I know very well that she is lying. I gulp.

Why is my wife doing this? Why is she avoiding me?My fist clenched on my lap,turning my knuckles pale,feeling a sudden anger running through my veins. I wanted to scream and ask.

But instead, "Oh....Okay." I said curtly and hung up. I threw the phone on the side seat. I let my head fall on the leather seat of the car. My hands gripped my hair in frustration
