Lena had been waiting for Darian for hours now. He had promised to show up while they go shopping together, but she had gotten all set for ta hours now and Darian was yet to arrive back home.
"Did he say that he would come with you?" Isabella asked, secretly gaping at a worried Lena, who placed her hands on her chest.
"Yes, he did. I guess he has a lot to do at work." She responded, smiling.
Though, she was really upset that Darian hadn't picked her calls nor called to inform her about the cancellation of the appointment they planned out, but she chose to remain calm at the instant.
"Maybe there is a lot to do," Isabella nodded her head. "So, how did you feel when the Doctor told you that you are having a baby girl?"
"On top of the world, I was so happy I couldn't contain my joy. This is what I have always wanted, you know? A baby girl as my first child, I do have plans for her, great ones." She chuckled, adjusting the dress that was slipping off her shoulders.
"I see that you are elated and that gladdens my heart." She smiled at Lena. They dived into other topics and talked a whole lot until Darian finally showed up.
Lena got off the couch and glared at Darian, she really was mad at him but she managed to take the suitcase from him after letting him kiss her.
"Did you have a nice day at work?" Isabella asked Darian and he nodded in response, not saying too much to him. Conversations between them were still awkward.
Isabella had been trying her best to form a bond with her son, but it seemed Darian was drifting very far apart from him.
She noticed how distant he was, but she didn't push it too forward. She knew that it would take a them a lot of time to get back together and be close like they should be and she was waiting until he was ready for her.
"Did you eat at work?" She asked, feeling like she was doing too much. She pressed her lips together when Lena gazed at her. "You should go in with your husband." She said teasingly.
"Yes," Lena linked their arms with a smile on her lips. Darian led the way to the room and she trotted behind him.
When they got into the bedroom, Lena lowered the suitcase on the vanity table and folded her arms around her chest.
Staring at Darian as he striped himself in front of her. He looked back at her and smiled but she didn't return the smile, he easily figured out that something was wrong with her.
"What's wrong, Lena?" He asked.
"Nothing, nothing is wrong." She said immediately his question dropped. Her voice was harsh, he knew well that everything was wrong.
"Lena, I know well that something is wrong. What's with the face?"
"You know, Darian. I was wondering if our plans meant nothing to you." Sitting on the bed, she crossed her legs on top.of each other and fixed her eyes online.
"Is there a problem?" He asked her.
"Do not ask me that, Darian."
"Oh, how would I know what I did wrong if you don't want to talk to me about it?" He whined.
"We planned to go shopping today, didn't we?" She glared at him as he tried to recall. He scratched his head and smiled. "You've been at work since morning today."
"There was a lot to do at the office today, Lena. I am sorry, but I totally forgot about it." He sighed and smiled again. "I will make it up to you, how do you want me to make it with you?" He asked.
"I know that you've been working but you didn't even talk about it when you got back home. You don't seem to be interested in this, I will go alone then. I will just assume that you don't want to talk to me and I will just be on my own until things are good with me again."
"Why are you sounding like this, Lena?" Darian shook his head. "I am sorry for keeping you waiting, Lena. I promise to go with you now, are you down for it?"
"No, I don't want to go anymore," She said and he laughed.
"You know that I put you first, don't you?"
"I knew that until today. I thought I was connected with you but maybe it's all a fib now."
"Hey," he chuckled. "I put you first in all the things that I do and I am sorry for not remembering that we were to visit the mall today." He walked down to where she was and crouched next to her. He was half naked and she didn't feel too cool with that, but she didn't flinch when he was close and touched her. "We can still visit, right?" He asked and she nodded in response.
"Yes, we can. I made a list of the baby's things already. This is going to be fun and I want only you to come with me."
"I will come with you. So please stop getting mad at me. I don't like to see the angry side of you, I hate it so much." He kissed her hand and rose to his feet. "I will be back," he turned to leave the room.
Lena jumped to her feet, pulling down her Zipper at once.
The sizzling sound of the zipper caused Darian to stop at his tracks. He looked back to see Lena coming towards him.
"Let's bath together." She said.
"Oh, sure." He smiled, pulling her to himself. He pulled off her underwear and when they were both naked, he led her into the bathroom. "This is going to be great." He said and he shut the door that led to the bathroom.
There was nothing more perfect than bathing with his beautiful wife.
