The moment she laid her eyes on Saul, her boyfriend, her smile grew wider. It had been over three weeks since they had last seen each other. She thought she would end up going crazy from missing him so much. Saul had just returned from a business trip during which he had been so busy the two of them barely even spoke. She immediately leapt up and wrapped her arms around his neck to pull him in and smother his face with sweet, little kisses. What she didn’t notice was the way he hugged her back was half-hearted. She also failed to notice how reluctant he seemed to accept so many kisses from her soft lips. It was as if he hadn’t missed her at all. Marisa was too wrapped up in her happiness at seeing him after so long to realize the feeling wasn’t mutual. “I fixed lunch. I made sure to have it ready for you,” she mentioned happily before pulling him inside the house with a firm hold of his hand. Another thing she didn’t notice was how loosely he held her hand in return.
