It’s been two years that you have been married to Alhaitham.

Ever since you were dating him, you are used to how passive and nonchalant he was. Though rarely talks and mostly he wants a conversation that sounds rational to his ear, he made sure that he spoiled you enough that makes you content even if he is indifferent.

He recently got promoted as a general manager in his company so intimate time between the two of you became minimal as well.

As his spouse you still made sure that your home is his comfort zone along with your presence.

Today is his birthday and you want to surprise him with a present that you saved up for months. It was neatly inside of a box with red ribbon and you baked him a cake for his special day.

You waited by the front door and Alhaitham arrived a bit late as usual looking more stressed than ever but as he saw you with the cake in hand his gaze softened.

“It’s my birthday? I haven’t even thought of it.*

You placed the cake at the dining table and handed him your present which made your husband smile.

But instead of getting the present he pulled you close and leaned his head to your shoulder.

“Save the present later… This is the unboxing I want.”

Alhaitham continues as he is unbuttoning your shirt.
