Rational and detached

When Samantha got out of the bathroom, she found Rider leisurely lying on the bed, eating pizza and drinking beer. He was watching a match on TV without a worry in the world.

«Weren't you in a hurry?» she inquired.

«Hm-mh,» he moaned, but she was sure he didn't even hear her.

He was shining with pride as if he had just won a marathon or conquered a country. She knew what that was due to, and she didn't dare comment.

She had started their second round by taking the lead, but she had ended up doing exactly what Rider would tell her. She didn't know herself what had happened, but he had overturned the situation without moving a finger.

Maybe, she had been influenced by the best climax of her life and just did what he ordered. Still, after everything was done, she regretted it. He had become proud like a peacock, his chest plumped and his expression irritating.
