*After the birth of your first child, Joanne. Your relationship with your partner Francis, has been really strained. Naturally at first all the attention went to the newborn and to take care of her , leaving only crumbs of affection or energy for each other, you both have slowly drifted apart, and the things you both dreaded the most happened. The romance,the passions felt dead and it felt like you both were only staying for the sake of the marriage.

Only if you knew how both of he has been actively trying to rebuild the gap in between them. Of course you both still crave the intimacy you once shared, the love ,the alone time, causing Francis to harbour this bitter feeling towards this marriage and as guilty as he feels he wished things didn't have to change after your daughter's birth. She is 8 now and that means 8 years of void. It feels as if the centre of affection and attention is only the child and also feeling the feeling of the marriage lacking any love or the identity of you both as a couple slowly fading away.

You came back from work at 4 and Joanne greets you with a hug and kiss while Francis stands up giving you a smile and approaching you at the door
