Sydelle's POV

We stayed silent the whole time. You could only hear the sound of the utensils and the silence was deafening. I'm having a hard time swallowing each spoonful of food I'm eating.

I don't know what to say...

I don't know what he's about to say and I'm afraid to hear another rejection coming from his mouth. The fear is still creeping in my heart.

Shrugging off all the dramas that's going on my mind right now I initiated our conversation.

"uuhhmm, Marco?" he turned his attention on me.

I was about to ask him on how does he find the food I cooked for him, but his stares was too much for me to handle.

Instead of continuing what I was about to say I stilled and let myself be completely drowned in his deep set of orbs.

"tss"

That was all that he said but it helped me to bring me back to my senses.

"Pack your things we'll be leaving."

I felt sad.

We have been here for less than a week still and we're already leaving? This is my only chance to actually be with him.

Away from the real world in which I know I'm nothing to him. Why does he have to be so selfish?

"B-but why so soon Marco?" I said with a hint of disappointment in my voice.

This is supposed to be our honeymoon but I'm not happy and I will never be happy with this decision of his.

But in the end I've got nothing to say with his decision.

What he wants, he gets. So even if I'll beg and kneel in front of him right now it would never change anything.

"I can't stay longer here... especially w-with you a-around." He said that without even looking at me.

"I-I thought we were good already Marco? W-what about last night then?" tears are starting to fall from my eyes already.

"What happened last night between you and me is a normal thing honey." He looked at me without even showing any emotions.

It was blank and I couldn't understand him. I thought we were already okay after that faithful night but then again my hopes failed me again.

"You're my wife and it's your job to do your wifely duties." He's look was stern and what he said pierced my heart once more.

I threw him a look of disbelief, I couldn't take it anymore. It feels like it was so suffocating around here; I just have to take a breath of fresh air.

"I-I'll just go ahead upstairs and prepare my things." I stood up without minding my unfinished food. The food didn't look inviting to me anymore. I lost my appetite already.

"Excuse me, Marco" for the first time I walked out in front of him.

I held onto the part of my chest near my heart... "Hold on now heart, don't give up." I said to myself.

Yes I'm hurt but I won't give up. I walked towards the balcony inside our room. I can't believe I'll be leaving this place so soon. Even for the shortest time of being here I would never forget this place.

From here it overlooks the whole beauty of the place. I couldn't stop but look at the surroundings with admiration written all over my eyes. Until my eyes landed on the most beautiful thing that I wished to be mine, Marco.

He stood lean and strong from the outside near the doorstep. I could clearly see him here from the balcony.

He was on the phone.

"Baby, I miss you" I heard him say from afar.

I heaved a deep sigh. He really loves Sofia so much. I've got nothing compared to what Sofia has.

"I'll be home by tomorrow baby."

Home... I smiled bitterly at his direction.

I am your home Marco but why can't you see that? You don't have to go home because you are already home Marco.

I couldn't stop myself from tearing again.
I glanced at the bed and the blissful memories of last night came rushing back again.

"I love you Marco, I won't give up...yet."
