One Wrong Doesn't Make It Right

Just the beginning

The troublesome storm woke me up on the wrong side of the bed today. My body was feeling sluggish and horrible due to the fact that I only got 5 hours of sleep time. Dragging myself out of bed of course Raelyn is nowhere to be found. Waking up to the love of my life would definitely put me in a better mood than I am right now.

Starting my morning routine I picked out a suit, took a shower, then ate breakfast. Making my presence known in the kitchen I didn't smell or here anything cooking. "Rae!" I called out to my wife but I heard nothing.

"Rae I thought you was making breakfast this morning." I said again trying to see if she was still in the house.

"Shhhh your son is sleeping, I didn't make any. It took me 2 hours to get him to sleep again." Raelyn said sighing in exhaustion.

"Oh okay well I guess I'll make myself something." My demeanor was so displeasing that I didn't get food this morning. I made me some cereal and ate it with sliced apples then sat at the bar area.

Raelyn came over to me trying pass me my son Luca, I gave her a piercing look letting her know that I didn't have much time. She smacked her teeth and left putting Luca back in his crib.

When she came back out she started getting out eggs, bacon, pancakes , and fruit to make a smoothie. My dry expression was noticeable to the fact that now all of sudden she wants to cook a full breakfast. "Now you wanna cook breakfast huh?" I said shaking my head.

"Well I had to put Luca back to sleep Ayden like damn. Why does it always feel like I have to choose between my husband and our 4 months old son?" She firmly said turning around to look at me.

"That's how you feel I'm not making you feel like anything. You cook me breakfast every morning before work and now I'm eating a half of a breakfast." I said irately.

"Whatever Ayden just this one time I don't cook for you it's the end of the fucking world grow up."

"I'll grow up when you start giving me attention. You know what I'm done with this cereal I gotta get to work." Getting up I left my bowl and plate of sliced apples at the bar. I wasn't in the mood for her attitude nor mine so I got dressed then put my files into my suitcase.

I sprayed my cologne then finally looked at the finishing product in the mirror. My outfit looked sharp but my energy definitely wasn't. Touching down in the living room I went to my son's room and kissed him goodbye as he slept peacefully in his crib. "I love you Luca daddy will see you as soon as I get off work."

Walking to the front door I stopped in the kitchen and wrapped my arms around Raelyn's waist while she cooked. Inches away from planting a kiss on her cheek she moved her head and looked at me like I was crazy for trying to show my wife some affection.

So I just kissed her head and left the house without saying anything. On my way to work I kept thinking about our marriage and how happy we were together a while back before Luca was even born. I'm not saying my son is a burden but things were a lot easier for us back then.

We would do dates every weekend, have movie night on Saturday and do big Sunday breakfast for ourselves. After Luca was born things have changed, we barely have time for our relationship now. Hell it's been 3 months since we been on a date.

The sex is still good but I get the strange feeling that Rae has been forcing it just to make me happy. Then when it's my turn to please her she never wants it. I've been trying to fix things by helping her with Luca but my boss has been giving me extra work to do ever since I've applied for the executive sale manager.

Parking my car in the parking deck I got my briefcase walking towards the entrance of my workplace. Of course everyone said good morning to me as well as my team did but you could tell everyone has been stressing lately. The pot of coffee in the break room has been consistently filled up it's madness in here.
