Once we reached the grocery store, we got down and he suddenly halts.

"What?" I ask him.

"I stopped so that you could lead the way." He shrugged his shoulders. "Like I told you earlier, I know nothing about cooking."
I rolled my eyes and take my place in the front, with Drake behind me.

Inside the shop, I picked all the necessary fruits and vegetables I needed and placed them inside the trolley. I picked some onions,tomatoes, mushrooms and some of my favorite fruits like apples and strawberries. Drake even helped me in picking some cilantro.

"So now we need some yoghurt, pepper,cheese,umm...salt-" He waves his hand for me to stop.

"Follow me." He pushed the trolley to the section where we get all the stuffs which I mentioned earlier and he directs me to buy whatever I need.

I throw everything I require. Lastly I pull out some peanut butter bottles from the top shelves. While I tried to throw them in the trolley, Drake grabs my hand.

"Is that peanut butter?" He asked me, eyeing the bottle in my hand.

"Yep. Who doesn't love it?"

"Well,I do!! I hate them." He said that with disgust covered all over his face.

"Ahh...fine!!"

"What else do you need?"He asked me.

"Umm...chicken." We strolled to the frozen section and grabbed some good chicken.

"And what's your favorite seasoning?" I ask him.

"I guess...French." I nod and run to the seasoning section to grab some French seasoning packets.

Then we passed the kitchen supply section. "Do you have pots and pans at home?"

"Well I have the basic stuffs,not the the fancy ones." He answered.

"That's enough, we'll get back later if we need any."

We reached the counter to settle our bills. The cashier is a lady. She seemed to have painted her entire face. Her dark-red lipstick looked so prominent. Her face brightened up looking at my husband.

"Hi Lisa!!" Drake greets her. So they know each other.

"Hey there Drake!!Sup??". She touched his shoulder while speaking.
Oooohh,..so she is the touchy-touchy kinda girl.

" Nothing much. Came around to shop a few stuffs."He shrugged his shoulders while he said that.

"Oh!! That's nice...and..eh...who is she?" She asked that with a bossy tone.

"Well,she is my wife,Anastasia. Ana,she is Lisa."

"What??!!From when were you married?" She completely ignored me and she seems to be confused and ...sad. Sad? Why?..

"Eh...kinda caught up in some family issues. I shall tell you about that later sometime."

I couldn't stand there anymore. I wanted some fresh air, so I walked away from the two lovebirds and stood outside, at the entrance.

I felt a heavy burden leaving my heart after coming out to get some fresh air. I felt very light. But the image of that slutty cashier kept creeping into the back of my mind. But I tried to let it fly when I felt the cool breeze hitting my face when I walked towards the parking lot.

He is really into that lady,isn't he? I don't think he considers me to be his wife...Lisa never even greeted me ,rather she just looked away when Drake introduced me to her. Looked like she was too caught up with Drake's conversation. The truth is, she wanted to ignore me. She hates me ,I think even I hate her back.

All my sad and lame thoughts were broken by Drake. He waves his hand at me from a few metres away,asking me to help him with bringing a few bags. He carried almost all of them.,leaving a few for me to carry.

"What happened?" He seemed to have noticed my dull face once when we were inside the car.

"Nothing."that's all I say and the car begins to move.

"Umm...sorry.. for what happened a while ago..." I could see a guilt in his eyes.

"What happened?" I asked him innocently as though nothing ever happened.

"Don't act!!" He said that,right away.

"Whaaat??!! You think I really care if that lady Lisa acknowledges me or not??" I raised my voice.

"Lady Lisa?? Hahahaha" he laughed loudly "Sometimes you are funny with all your fancy words and weird expressions which you give. Those expressions which I see on your face are truly priceless."

I raised my eyebrows and gave a 'Like seriously?' look at him. He laughs even more.

"Shut up!!" With that I look away.

"Ana..." He mumbled my name. He placed his hand on mine which were on my lap. I didn't slap his hand away. I don't know what happened and immediately I was submerged in his eyes...

"Lisa is a good friend of mine. I have known her ever since, I visited that store to buy snacks and other items for the first time. Well, she doesn't seem to behave the same way as I do to her. I know she has feelings for me from a very long time. But today was supposed to be the day where I could make her realise that I was never hers. But you just walked away casually which made it even worse. You just gave her the permission to still try on me."

I didn't have anything to reply. I decided to remain silent.

"And for the last night's incident... I'm a little pissed, but not at you, its me, but I really don't wanna talk about it. I'm just upset with myself..." I nodded in understanding. I could read the apologies in those two big eyeballs of his. But my face remained unreadable.
So he began to concentrate on the road and drive in order to take both of us safely back home....
