It ain't me (Sequel to "What an asshole you are, Zachary"), Zach Kornfeld fanfic

Forgiving

"Where is my blue button down?" Zach asked for the 5th time in a row as he entered the bathroom. I was just about to wing my eyeliner as he crashed in my elbow with his chest.

"Fuck off," I hissed, giving him the nastiest look you could imagine. "I told you I didn't manage to wash it yet."

"How come? You've been at home all day yesterday!" His voice was getting louder again what was a usual thing between us now. Every morning we got in a nasty fight, him complaining I did nothing right and me just hissing back, cursing everyone and everything aroun us.

"I wasn't at home. Someone had to take care of our groceries and get McPaws to the vet, you idiot," I insulted him, trying to wipe the messed wing with a cotton pad. Zach sighed and left the bathroom, slaming the door behind him. "Don't slam the door so hard!" I yelled after him, leaning on the wall.

My heart was beating obnoxiously fast and I felt the familiar fear inside my stomach again. We were in 5th year of our marriage that has been nasty for the past two years. We were fighting all the time, mostly for stupid things but it was still horrible to experience that every day. The thing that bothered Zach the most was that I kept my anger at work even so every coworker knew we had a row again. 

Running my hands through my hair I tried to keep my cool and re-do my eyes. After three tries I gave up so I decided it was high time to feed McPaws, our black kitten we saved from the street after coming back from honeymoon.

"Hi, baby," I stroked his back, smiling at him. "You hungry?" I asked, getting some cat food.

"Of course you are preparing food for the cat instead of breakfast," Zach came to the kitchen, wearing a white button down with cat heads I got him as a present for his 32nd birthday. 

"Someone has to feed him, Zach," I bit my lip, giving our cat some food before grabbing a couple of eggs for us.

"Eggs again?" He continued being fussy and now I felt tears forming in my eyes. I knew he had a rough morning due to hangover but there was no need to be angry at me again.

"I can ma..." I tried to suggest something else but he already took eggs from me.

"I'm going to do my own breakfast, your eggs are too plain for me," I just took a step back, clenching my fists in order not to cry. After a couple of minutes of silence Zach looked at me, his blue eyes softened now. "I'm sorry, baby, I'm just having the worst headache ever," He whispered, reaching out for my hand.

"It's okay," I answered, biting my lip as he pulled me in a hug. His large hands were stroking my back now, making my body relax while my brain were still racing. Was I making a mistake by letting him acting so rude to me and forgiving him all the time?
