You were sure that Carlos was cheating on you, Carlos was amazing at the beginning of the relationship, until the ring was on your finger, slowly he started to become cold and distant. He took a long time to get home, using the excuse that training was late, he barely responded to your messages or at least looked at you, married life was becoming a little nightmare.

You set the table with fancy shit, polished the dishes until they gleamed and glistеn, wore Carlos' favorite dress, even dared to put on makeup, all to be noticed by the guy who once swore the world to you.

You know your love should be celebrated, but Carlos just tolerates it.

You greet him with a battle hero's welcome, you take his indiscretions all in good fun, you sit and watch him read with his head down, not a word. You notice everything he does or doesn't do, he is much older and wiser than you.

“Can you pass me the juice?” he asked, it was the first thing he said after sitting down, after about twenty minutes of total silence, just… ignoring you.
