I carefully tiptoed downstairs as I  heard simon opening the front door.

I peeped into the stairs and saw that old lady again handing simon a huge box.

"What's in the box?" I said descending down the stairs

Both of them looked flustered.

"Uhm, its the cake baby" he said

"For what?"

"For my restaurant?" He said obviously

"Well then, good night" I said sternly nodding on the old lady.

I reached my bedroom and slammed the door shut hoping that simon would hear it.

I laid in bed staring at the ceiling.
"What are you up to?" I said as I heard him entering the room

"Huh?" He replied confused

"Nvm, come here lay with me" I said

A moment of silence engulfed us simon suddenly faced me.

"Baby, is there any chance that you'll marry me someday?" He asked 

I looked at surprised, what a sudden question.

"Of course" I said surely

"How about you?" I asked him, he stayed silent and hugged me.

I sighed and turned my back against him.

"I love you " he whispered

I stayed silent and closed my eyes.

***

"Where are you?" Finally he answered.

"Hello? I'm sorry baby, I'm on a meeting right now"

"But it's 7 in the evening!" I said annoyed

"I'll call you later okay? Love you! " he hanged up

Something's not right. I thought.
I dialed Scotts number his secretary.

"Hello ms. Adkins? "

"Yeah, scott. Till what time is Simon's meeting?"

"What meeting?" He said

"Never mind. Thank you!" I said and hunged up

I threw my phone in the bed and felt a pang of pain in my heart.

Why is he lying to me?

Suddenly I heard the door open. It was simon. 

"Hey baby. How's the meeting?" I asked him normally

"It went fine babe. I bought dinner!" He said excitedly

"I'm not hungry" I said returning to my room.

Why the fuck is he lying?

I was about to sleep and heard simon opening the bedroom door.

"Baby what's wrong?"

"You tell me" I snapped

He sighed and didn't answer me. He just laud beside me and opened his phone.

He's been on his phone lately. Well, just one more strike and he'll see the worst of me.

I huffed and grabbed my keys.

"Where are you going?" He said

"To the studio"

"Its in the middle of the night!"

"So what?" I answered grabbing my wallet and phone

"I'll come with you"

"Whatever suits you" I said annoyed
He quickly changed and accompanied me to the car.

***
"Can you just stop pestering me for a minute?" I said

"Why? You're just sitting there"

"I'm finalizing my tour you idiot!"

"Woah. You don't need to be a bitch about it"

"Well stop being a jerk"

"What's with you lately?" He asked annoyed

"Are you cheating on me?" I said looking him in the eye.
