20 Vol 1 : Our First Fight ⭐

"Mama said what?" Faye confirmed once again, what did she hear when Claudia said she bought a honeymoon ticket.

"Mama bought you honeymoon tickets~" Claudia repeated innocently.

"Ma, me and Denis don't need it!" exclaimed Faye in frustration.

What are they on their honeymoon for? In that case, Denis can monopolize Faye during their honeymoon. At home, at least, Faye can get to work avoiding Denis.

"You both deserve it. Mama wants to quickly hold a grandson. Good if a boy can accompany you too, Fay~" said Claudia happily, even demonstrated how to hold a baby without shame there are some people who pay attention to her.

Faye coughed thinking about what her son and Denis would look like, was it like her with wavy hair or Denis who had straight hair, "Ma! I have a restaurant to take care of. Who will replace me if I go on a honeymoon?"

Faye took a day off, her phone still receiving messages from her employees. What about a honeymoon that can take more than a week?

"Mama here~" said Claudia, unwilling to give up on her stance.

Faye patted her forehead.

Taking over a job isn't as easy as turning the palm. The point of the honeymoon is a nightmare, her work can pile up when she gets home. Then she stood up, "I go if Mama keeps offering things that don't matter."

"But Fay—"

"That's enough. I'll go," Faye said coldly. She walked out, unfortunately, blocked by Denis, "What do you want?"

"Fay, I understand you're angry, but it's not good to just leave your Mama," Denis tried to advise.

"You don't understand Denis, my Mama will always offend this even though I say enough, the best decision about my Mama is better off until she thinks what's wrong with it," said Faye, explaining calmly even though her heart was burning with irritation.

"But—"

"Get out of my way!" said Faye coldly, immediately Denis stepped aside to give away for her to pass. When she got downstairs, she glanced back and realized that Denis wasn't following, seemingly choosing to have lunch with Claudia.

'I don't care.'

Faye continued out of the restaurant. She intended to go to her restaurant which is nearby. unfortunately, Denis's scream stopped her steps.

"Fay!"

Faye did not respond only to stop because it was useless to run away, and right on her guess, Denis blocked her way again by standing in front of her, "What do you want?"

"I'm coming too."

"I thought you wanted to eat with my Mama?" Faye asked without hiding the irritation in her tone.

"I just apologized to your Mama about your behavior, and could not eat together either," explained Denis calmly.

What did Denis do?

"You don't have to apologize!" exclaimed Faye angrily.

Denis slowly got angry too, "Getting angry with your parents may be natural to you, but leaving without politeness is not taught in my place, Miss Faye. You are my wife, after all, your attitude indicates what kind of teaching I teach."

"Contract," said Faye with a bored yawn, "are you done with your lecture? I'm leaving."

"You know what, Faye? Just go," said Denis coldly, feeling disrespected, "we have our own lunch. I'm tired of seeing you."

Faye clenched her fists, before she could answer, Denis had gone in the opposite direction with his hands put in his pants pocket.

Denis gave advice as if he knew the relationship between Faye and Claudia the best. As if he was the most correct, even though Denis himself was doing the dirty work with her, contract marriage.

Faye walked again slowly, thinking about what Denis had said. The more steps the more guilty for all of this, it may be true that she acted too much and was rude to Claudia.

Denis did not do anything wrong and even apologized for Faye's impoliteness.

Faye's heart said that Denis took her husband's status very seriously.

Denis sometimes says he likes her, but sometimes says it is a contract marriage, so Faye is confused about whether Denis's heart is actually with her or not.

Faye takes her cellphone, writes a message asking Denis where he is now, then sends it. Then walk again to her restaurant to order food and see the conditions there.

***

Unexpectedly, Denis replied to Faye's message while waiting for her order to be completed.

Denis replied that he was at home relaxing watching television, giving insinuations to Faye with the addition of the sentence: calm himself.

Faye felt this was an opportunity to apologize, decided to cancel eating at the restaurant, asked for food to be wrapped, and ordered one more portion for Denis.

Faye didn't really know Denis's tastes so she ordered the same menu and immediately got out of the restaurant, stopping the cab so she could get home sooner.

'Must want.'

Faye tightens her grip on the plastic filled with food, hoping that Denis hasn't eaten lunch or at least isn't full yet.

It didn't take long to get to her house, it only took ten minutes to arrive.

Faye gets out of the cab, gives a pretty big tip to the driver, gives goodness in the hope her plan goes smoothly.

"Thank you very much, miss. Have a nice day," said the Driver.

"I hope too," said Faye.

The driver lifted his navy hat respectfully and left.
