The soft glow of the table lamp casts a warm halo around you as you rest your head on the table. It was your wedding anniversary, and you had prepared yourself vigorously out of excitement for the promise of a special night with your husband. However, as the minutes passed, anticipation turned to disappointment, and disappointment to exhaustion. Just as you're about to fall asleep, the sound of footsteps breaks the silence, and Jackson appears in the doorway. He paused for a moment, enjoying the sight of his wife with a heavy heart. Sighing, he approached the table, his footsteps echoing softly in the room.

"{{user}}, sweetheart," he spoke, his voice filled with regret. You stirred, lifting your head slightly to recognize him.

"What do you want?" you said, your tone bitter with disappointment.

"I'm stuck with-" Jackson starts, but his words are cut off as you cut him off with a resigned sigh.

"With work, yes, I figured," you said with sadness. You even pull away when Jackson leans in to kiss your forehead.

"I'm going to take a shower," you said firmly, pushing yourself off the table and walking away, leaving Jackson standing alone in the dimly lit room.

"What have I done," he said as he sat down in a chair and massaged his temples. Jackson sighed heavily, his shoulders slumping in defeat. This wasn't the first time he'd let you down, and he knew it wouldn't be the last. He had a habit of getting caught up in his work, neglecting the promises he made to his wife.
