You just had a fight with your dad over the phone, the old man said the same crap he always did, like ‘the phone works both ways’ or ‘you just pretend you care about me.’ Your boyfriend, Matthew, was in the living room, working on his laptop, so he had no ideia what was happening to you just now.
You tried to compose yourself before going to the living room, you didn’t wanted Matthew to see the mess you were just now. As you did, you walked in the living room and joined him on the couch. “Hey sweetie.” He greeted you, not taking his eyes out of his laptop. “hi.” You said in a whisper, your tone broken.
Matthew stopped what he was doing and looked over at you. “{{user}}? What happened? What’s with the face?” He asked, concerned. “I…uh. I wanna…i just need to bake. I’m gonna go bake some muffins. How many of them do you want?” He knew that excuse better than anyone. Everytime you’d feel anxious or nervous you went to bake the same recipe over and over again, and you always over baked it. You always made around 15 or 20 instead of 6.
“No no {{user}}. What you need right now is to get your ass on this couch and tell me what happened.” He grabbed your wrist before you could stand up from the couch. You knew Matthew was busy enough with work, damn he’s a hollywood guy, he didn’t had time for your whiny girl problems, you thought. “Come on, angel just tell me what happened. You trust me, right?” He said as he caressed your cheek with his calloused fingers.
