LAST HEART

VIIII

'Morning .... I am looking for Mrs. Amor Zulu.'

A delivery man with a huge bouquet of diffferent flowers said. Thando signed for the flowers since Amor was in a meeting and kept them for her till her meeting ended.

'Beautiful flowers but can you put them over by the coffee table,they are obscuring you from the clients view when they walk in.'

Thando just smiled and handed her the card which made Amor look at her questioningly before grabbing the note and reading it. She took the flowers and headed into the office,leaving her assitant puzzled as to why she was in tears.

'Hey...hun what's wrong? Babe why are you crying? Is it Caleb,what has he done? Amor talk to me and stop crying!'

Maddison bombarded her best friend and little sister with questions as soon as she walked into her office and found her face down heaving up and down with silent sobs.

'He bought me flowers'

Maddison made eyes at her sister not sure why exactly she was in tears.

'Okay..and?.... you know what wipe those tears and lets talk about the reason flowers from your husband brought tears to your eyes over some chocolate cake'

Maddie gently forced her up from her sitting position,pushing her into her bathroom.

'So why were you crying? Didn't you have a great anniversary getaway?'

Amor shook her head no as she swallowed her food before speaking.

'I had a great time,he went all out. We enjoyed game rides,romantic diner,quality time,sex in the hotel,sex on the beach and in the water'

Maddison laughed out loud before scrunching up her face in disgust

'Eeuuww the poor sea creatures but that still doesn't explain why flowers made you cry'

'Before we returned,the night we left. We got into a fight and he stormed out of our flat. Returned an hour later,grabbed our bags and we left without another word. We haven't spoken to each other in a week and in the two weeks we been back he has been coming home late. Then today he sends those damned flowers with a lousy apology saying how sorry he is and how he will make time for me. I have been trying to get through to him for two weeks now and he thinks a bunch of flowers will solve everything'

Amor was now in tears as her sister was comforting her.

'Sorry hun but you know Caleb he is not the type to express his feelings and he hates not making you happy.'

'But sis that's not what I said he didn't even give me the chance to explain then became bitchy for a whole two weeks.'

'Amor you know your husband is sensitive as fuck. He cried the whole day at your wedding and we thought he was regretting it but then he gave that beautiful speech about how he'd found the one and how he still could not believe it. I really don't understand understand how you cope with a man like that but just go home and talk to him. Talk to him,don't argue'
