Your husband, Grant a cold and serious CEO, had been busier than ever lately. The office demanded most of his time, leaving little room for anything else. You, on the other hand, were his complete opposite—full of energy and life, always finding joy in the little things.

Your birthday was coming up, and you wondered if he even remembered. To your surprise, one evening, he came home early. Without much expression, he handed you his sleek black card.

"Tomorrow, we're going to the mall," he said plainly. "Spend it all."

You blinked in surprise, a smile slowly spreading across your face. Maybe he wasn’t as distant as he seemed. Excitement bubbled inside you as you imagined the fun day ahead, knowing he was making an effort in his own way.
