_____________________________...When I reached back to the apartment that night, my legs were asleep. The emotional stress that I was in was wearing me completely out. It didn't help that the cruise that ended just yesterday had did its bit to my muscles and bones.I was just too tired.The whole house was dimly lit.What was Rowan up to now?A part of me told me he was doing something romantic and the pathetic part of me wished he was doing something romantic."You are home." Home. Was this my home?Rowan walked over to me, taking small tentative steps. He had a washcloth over his left shoulder and a sprinkle of flour on his hair. "Were you cooking?" I asked him. I did know he could cook in the last two months but I did not think that I would ever see the day when I came home to him welcoming me like this. "Homemade pizza. With Mexican toppings, your favorite." My weak legs did not have the power in them to hold me up when he said something like that. I almost stumbled and h

_________________________________...I stepped out of the bath and changed into a lavender set of pajamas, not bothering to blow dry my hair. I knew good food was waiting for me and I didn't want it to keep waiting for me. I hurried out of the room and stopped when I heard Rowan on the phone. "I don't know what else I am supposed to do. She won't take the bait." I felt my entire body go cold. Take the bait?"What else am I supposed to do? Lick her shoes? Do you know how hard it is to pretend to like someone you loathe? But I need her on my side so I have to do this shit!" He was pacing around the living room so I hid myself away from his field of view. I felt the unshed tears sting at the edges of my eyes but I was not going to cry. He had already made a fool out of me. I was not going to let him make me a pathetic fool. "Ashton, you don't understand. She is disgusting! She is so annoying. I can't. You know I would rather spend my time with someone else." Disgusting? Annoyin

____________________________...I woke up in the morning feeling every bit of pain and sorrow I felt the night before. But I had also found a newfound courage and determination to give it back to Rowan. I had been civil to him yesterday night at dinner at my parents' but he was going to have to deal with this new me from now on. I was going to make him wish he had not asked for another year of this facade. I did my morning business and dressed myself in my usual suit pants and a white shirt. I put on my red lipstick and twisted my hair into a side knot before exiting my room, only to bump into a sturdy wall immediately. I flailed my arms as I stumbled backward but before I could fall, strong muscular arms wrapped around my waist and pulled me towards them. My eyes made contact with the enthralling ones of my husband, and I felt anger boil throughout my body. "Careful there, pumpkin." He gave me a lazy grin. "We don't want anything happening to that perfect ass of yours." I na
When My Husband Regretted 47. ~Rowan~
____________________________...It had been exactly one month since Rory and I accidentally slept together again and I wanted to celebrate it because it was a turning leaf for our relationship. But Ashton here did not think it was the brightest idea. "You are not a fifteen-year-old schoolgirl in her first relationship, Rowan. Act like an adult, won't you?" He laughed. "You are making it way too obvious how smitten you are for your wife." I grunted as I sat back in my chair. It was so easy for him to say whatever came to his mind because he had succeeded in using the cruise event to get Shannon to admit her feelings for him. It was not that I was not happy for him. I was very much happy for my best friend to have found his happily ever after. But I just envied him a little. I wanted teeny tiny happy ever after as well. "The first step to getting what you have been trying to get is admitting your own feelings to yourself." He said, his index finger pointed upward as he walked over

_________________________________...The car ride churned my insides and when we reached the parking lot, I shoved open the door and rushed to a waste bin, emptying whatever was left in my gut. It was not my brightest moment and even though I did not want it, Rowan was at my side in an instant holding back my hair and rubbing my back."You are gonna be okay, pumpkin." He whispered. "We will see the doctor in a minute."Somehow, instead of providing any sort of relief, his words just annoyed me. I knew I was going to see a doctor. I did not need him to tell me as much.I shoved him away and stood up straight only to sway due to light-headedness. Though he was initially shocked by how he was pushed away, he overcame that pretty quickly and wrapped his arms around me. "We will get you some water."He seemed really concerned.Well, I guess it was only human to worry about someone even if you did not like them, when they were sick. There was nothing more to it."I could use some water r
When My Husband Regretted 49. ~Rowan~
______________________________ . . . I paced the waiting room for the nth time before Rory came back out. Thank God she did because I was going to barge in there before I had an anxiety attack if she had taken any longer. "What did the doctor say? Are you okay?" I grabbed her by the shoulders and slightly shook her in the nervousness. "Whoa, calm down Keller. My head's spinning!" She grabbed my arms. She looked a lot paler than she did when she went in and it was starting to scare the shit out of me. "What did the doctor say?" I asked her again. "Over-exertion and sleep deprivation along with shitty food is never a good combination." She said. I paused. I understood the over-exertion and the shitty food but where did the lack of sleep come from? The Aurora Keller I knew always made it a point to get eight hours of sleep. "Sleep deprivation?" I questioned. "I have a Chinese drama addiction. Sometimes I go overboard with it." She shrugged. I nodded, though I did not c

__________________________________________...Rowan shut me up and took me home. Though I kept protesting, even I wanted nothing more than to come home and lock myself up in my room.I had just received the best news of my life and I was here trying to hide it from everyone when I should be screaming it out at the top of my lungs.All through the ride back home, I thought where all of us stood in all this. I don't know what Rowan was planning. I just knew that he was trying to make it seem like he was smitten with me or something.Oh, wait.I sat down on the bed.That's it.That's what he wants.He wants to make it seem like he is smitten with me so that when the divorce happens, no one thinks it is his fault.Wow.This man really was something else. And Ashton was in on it, which was the worst part. No, that was not the worst part. The worst part was that I had played right into it and went ahead and even slept with him multiple times. If it was not for me overhearing the phone ca

__________________________________________...One minute Rory was roasting me with her witty comments and the next thing I knew, my wife was a sobbing mess."Baby!!" I wrapped my arms around her trying to comfort her. I may not be an experienced father and I have seen enough shows and movies to know that this was her hormones.My baby was pregnant with our baby and I had to take care of her and- Ouch!She elbowed me in the gut and pushed me away from her."Go. Away. Rowan!" She glared at me.Okay, she was angry now. And anger was not good for the baby. I needed to calm her down."Alright alright... Whatever you want, pumpkin!" I held my hands up in surrender. "But won't you tell me what's wrong?" I asked her."You. You are what is wrong!" She yelled at me. And then she stopped crying, wiping away her tears and turned to the ice cream. What just happened? Get it together, Rowan. This is what is going to happen for eight-nine months from now on. "Did I do something to piss you off?"
