But He regretted his words as soon as he saw how his wife's face fell and she looked completely broke

She looked down and nodded

"5 minutes... " She whispered, her voice hoarse and weak from all the shouting and crying

"And about that night..... "

He started looking down

Her face shot into his direction, fresh tears brimming in her eyes and her face utterly flushed , while all the memories rushed back

No please...

~Flashback: 2 months ago~

She looked at her reflection for the 1000th time, making sure her dress, make up, hair was perfect. She can't afford even a single strand of hair being out of place. Not today atleast

She had to look beautiful today

It's his birthday

She doesn't know what has caused it but she felt her relationship with her husband slipping right from her hands, her husband has been drifting apart

She felt it whenever she tried to initiative anything

A kiss ? A hug?
He didn't even return a simple "I love you" of hers anymore

She didn't know what happened

She didn't know her sister happened

But today she was determined to save her marriage

It wasn't some random friend she could let go

It was her husband

Her Andrew

Her thoughts were disturbed by a knock on their walk in closet's door

"Sia... Are you in there? "

Her heart thumped after hearing his voice. No matter if she's known him for 7 years, he still made her nervous. As hell.

"C-coming" She stammered

She swayed the door open, coming face to face with the most gorgeous man she's ever seen

He looked different today

His eyes a bit red, hair messed up and his  pink plump lips slightly open in confusion

He could not take his eyes off his wife

She looked so beautiful

"Why did you call me so urgently? I thought something was wrong"
He rasped out

"Andrew.... Hi" She said smiling softly

He was worried for her. A side of him she hasn't seen recently .

And she wanted to keep it that way for as long as she could

"Hi..?" He whispered back

Reaching out for her hand as she took tender steps out of the closet

But instead he got shocked when she engulfed him in a hug

She was afraid he might back off but he didn't instead he wrapped his arms around her small waist

"Happy birthday love"
She whispered in his ears before closing her eyes and resting her head on his shoulder

He closed his eyes as he felt her warmth making him pull her more close to him
