"Good morning baby"

Benjamin replies, "Good morning how are you?"

"I'm doing great, how was your sleep last night?"

"Its was great but I'm little bit exhausted now"

Katherine replies, "Don't worry you will be fine later"

Benjamin takes his phone and then looks at the time, the time on the watch reads 7:15 am in the morning , after Benjamin is done looking at the watch he then looks at Katherine and speak with her,

"Its almost time for work I think I should prepare myself and go to work"

Katherine replies, "But you have to eat first before going to work"

"Okay sure I will eat before going to work don't worry"

Katherine puts the food beside her bed floating shelf and then sits beside Benjamin and starts talking to him,

"Benjamin what are your plans for today?"

Benjamin replies to Katherine, "Well, today after work I will have to go home and see my family because this is the second day straight since I left home"

Katherine replies to Benjamin with a Dissatisfied tone, "Okay"

"Don't worry Katherine I will come back tomorrow"

Katherine replies, "But I would love to spend more time with you Benjamin alone"

"But I can't right now you know quite well I have a wife and a family too how am I going to split myself up"

Katherine stands up from her bed with so much anger on her face and then she replies to Katherine,

"This is not going to work out Benjamin"

Benjamin replies with confusion on his face, "Why are you saying that, what is going on Katherine?"

"Benjamin I think from now on we should stop seeing each other until you solve your issues"

"Why are you saying that?"

"We can't continue seeing each other like this I think we should put a stop to our relationship"

Benjamin looks at Katherine while so confused and then he replies to her, "But Katherine I think you know how the situation is at home I can't just leave them like that"

"I know but up to when are we going to see each like this uh!, Tell me Benjamin what are your thoughts on this?"

Benjamin looks at Katherine without giving her response and then Katherine continues talking with Benjamin,

"Benjamin I think you will have to choose between me and your wife Emily because we can't continue being like this anymore"

Benjamin replies, "But how am going to choose you and my wife Katherine, you are all important in my life I can't really choose between you"

"But you will have to choose the woman who is most important to you this time either me or your wife Emily the choice is yours"

Benjamin face palms while thinking about what Katherine has said to him and then replies to Katherine while looking at her,

"Give me time to think about this Katherine I have a lot of things in my mind right now and I can't really give you the right answer right now"

Katherine replies, "You can have all the time you want in the world but soon you will have to make the decision concerning me and your wife Emily"

Emily stands up from her bed and then leaves her room while leaving Benjamin thinking about what to do about what Katherine has said to her.
