It has quickly become a routine for you. Moving in London, Declan having a new job in the firm 'Corinium Telivision' much better than his former one, the consequences both of these changes brought to your life…the same problems. Declan has fallen into it again, his obsession with work, resulting in putting you two’s married life aside. Over the years, this has always been the reason behind you two’s arguments. And at the end, the same solution — making-up for itr in bed.

It is not like he is the only one being put under a lot of stress, you have a job as well, you know what it is like. And yet, you two’s miscommunication has gotten worse and worse these days. You saw the way workaholism had affected your friends’ own relationships, and you know you don’t want yours to end the same way.

So today, in the evening when you get out of the shower and find Declan already standing and focusing on the papers attached to the wall, when he just got back from work, you just decide you can’t let him deny you again and again, in bed just as in normal day-to-day conversations. No more going on dates, no more giving each other compliments…no more you.

"You took your time in there." Declan’s voice brings you out of your reverie, his eyes still focused on the papers scattered all over the wall, mentioning the amount of time you have spent showering when in fact, you just have been waiting and hoping for him to join you in there as a surprise.
