Imperfect Hearts

Chapter 14

Farida

She was getting soft for him. And she shouldn't be.

After realizing yesterday how much she smiled bad laughed around him, she knew she was getting soft.

But heck it was mostly his own fault. He should be cold and annoying like he was before Farida married him.

Except now he was nice. Nice.

Something he shouldn't be.

She watched suspiciously as Adam moved around the counter a smile plastered on his face.

"Morning." He said and grinned at her.

She narrowed her eyes mumbling a small morning back.

He placed a bowl of cereal in front of her and smiled.

"What got you in such a happy mood?" Farida asked while pouring milk into her cereal.

"Umm nothing really." Adam said.

Farida mumbled a small "sure". Still not happy with waking up.

Adam then sat down eating his own bowl of cereal.

After a little time Farida decided that it was the time to tell him.

She had been tossing all night thinking about it. She needed to talk to her.

"Adam." She called and Adam looked away from the screen momentarily.

"Yeah?" He turned around to face the tv again.

"Uh I was wondering..." She trailed off.

"Mhm" and muttered changing the channel.

He wasn't paying attention.

"Adam." Farida called him again.

"Yeah yeah I'm listening." He sure as hell wasn't since he didn't even look away from the TV.

Farida snatched the remote control away from his hand and switched the TV off.

"Hey I was watching that. It was an important news." Adam protested.

"I need to talk to you about something. And you weren't listening." Farida shrugged.

"Fine what is it?" Adam groaned and this time paid attention to her.

Farida suddenly felt all fidgety and nervous.

How was she supposed to tell him without saying too much.

She looked down before speaking, "I need to visit the cemetery today."

"Huh?" Adam asked probably not hearing her low voice when she spoke.

"I need to visit the cemetery today." She said a little louder and looking up at him.

"Why?" Adam said in surprise and curiousness.

"I kind of need to visit someone." She replied looking away again.

"Who?"

Farida inhailed sharply.

Can't he just not be so curious.

"Just someone." Farida replied. Somehow annoyed at his curiosity.

"Who." He asked more like demanded this time.

"An old friend. Just take me oaky?" Farida huffed.

Adam narrowed his eyes. Looking away.

After a few seconds of silence Adam said an okay to her.

"Really?" She was surprised, she in all expected him to say no.
