His Obsession: A Roman Reigns Story

An awkward & rocky dinner

Roman pulled up to his house and got out of his car. He walked towards his house door and unlocked it with his house key. He went inside and put his keys on the hook. He looked all around him and walked towards the kitchen. Galina was setting the table and Roman grabbed a soda from the fridge.

Roman: Where's JoJo?

Galina: I took her over to your sister's house. She's gonna stay there, tonight. She's worried about us, Roman.

Roman: I've already told her that she doesn't have to worry about a thing. We're not gonna get a divorce.

Galina: Are you sure about that, I mean, the way you're actin' towards me a lot lately.

Roman: Look, let's just eat, okay? I don't feel like arguin' with anybody, tonight.

He walked away and sat down at the table. Galina sat down at the table, too, and they said their grace. Roman started putting food on his plate and Galina moved some of her hair behind her ear.

Galina: How was work?

Roman: It was okay.

Galina: I was wonderin', if you were up to it, we can have sex, tonight, please?

Roman: Did you get yourself checked?

Galina: Of course, I did. I would be stupid, if I didn't.

Roman: We just need to take things slow.

Galina (frustrated): How long are we gonna keep takin' things slow, Joe, huh, how long?!

Roman: Until, you fuckin' screw up again! Every day I go to work, I go out in front of the fans, and I've gotta pretend that everything's okay! All I can think about is you screwin' him and I'm sick and tired of thinkin' that! I'm out on the road, and when I married you, I married you because of your personality, your intelligence, and your beauty! When I was out on the road, all I was thinkin' about was comin' home to you, and to your daughter because I get so lonely being on the road without my woman, without my wife! While I was out on the road, I was never cheatin' on you because I was raised better than that! I was taught better than that! I never had the heart to do it! I couldn't cheat on you even if I tried! I was beatin' up on myself for you because I thought I was doin' somethin' wrong but I wasn't doin' anything wrong! Any problems that you're havin', you could come to me, I'm always right there with a hundred percent! I've always been right there with you, no matter what, but now, you've screwed up big time. You took me to a place where I don't know, if I can come back from it.

Galina: Look, I said I was sorry. I've said I'm sorry over a million times. What else can I do?

Roman: Communicate, we've gotta keep communicatin', until, we understand each other.

He went back to eating and Galina let an exasperated sigh.

Galina (breaking voice): The guilt is eatin' me alive, Joe. I need you to help me, please?

Roman stopped eating and got up. He walked towards her and she started crying softly. He pulled her up and held onto her. She held onto him and he rubbed her hair slowly. He laid the side of his face on top of her head.
