As I woke up I took in the smell of tobacco and alcohol from the duvet and pillow. He had been drinking again last night. He always did when he was irritated or didn't have a good day. Yesterday was one of those days. When he came home, he didn't speak to me at all. He just walked inside, sat down in his chair and didn't say a word. And if I tried to speak to him, he turned me down. He always comes to bed late, after I've fallen asleep, or at least he thinks I'm sleeping.
I got up from the bed, not bothering to get dressed so I was walking into the living room in my grey shorts and dark blue singlet. I saw Ben sitting in his chair with a glass bourbon in his hand.
He was looking out the window, not paying attention to me. He was still wearing the same clothes from yesterday.
"Ben..." I say with care. His turns his face slowly towards me and study me from top to toe before he meets my eyes.
"Didn't you come to bed last night?" I asked while he finish his drink. He puts the glass on the table and starts to seduce me with his gorgeous eyes, causing me to bit my lip.
"Didn't want to wake you up," he simply says.
"Want to talk about what happened yesterday? It might help to talk about it rather that drown them in bourbon," I say.
"It's nothing to talk about," he responds. I'm standing right beside him.
"You always ignore me when you're in this mood."
This made him straighten in the chair. "Do you feel invisible to me?" he asks, drags me down onto his lap and holds his hand on my thigh.
"Yes," I whisper and he strokes my cheek.
"Oh darling, I'm sorry for that. You've done me nothing wrong. I don't do it on purpose, you know that right? You are everything to me. Never think that you are invisible because you're all that I see. I'll start giving you more attention from now on. Does that sound good to you?" His dark voice makes my bones weakened.
I nods in response.
"Good," he says. "But first, I want my morning hug."
I smiles and places my hands around his neck as I bury my face in his neck. He moves his arms around my back and pushes me closer to him.
"I love you, darling," he whispers and kisses my head.
"I love you too."
"Now, let me give you the attention you deserve."
