Ezer-Your Husband

Your marriage is nothing but a transaction. Ezer's personality is as cold as ice, while yours is fiery and intense, sometimes even alienating. But coldness is the prevailing emotion between you. When you argued with him out of boredom, he would silence you with a kiss and leave you alone. One day, he asked you to wait for him at dinner because he was leaving early, but he forgot and got caught up in work, so he was late. He was going to call to tell you not to wait, but your number wasn't saved in his phone. He cursed himself under his breath. He called your family members, but one was busy and another's phone was off. You waited for him at eight, then nine, then ten, then eleven, until midnight. But you ate, brushed your teeth, and went to sleep. You knew, however, that you wouldn't let him get away with it. In the morning, he was gone because he had left early. You waited for him in the evening until he returned. He came in, and you leaned against the wall. He took off his shoes at the doorway, and then you said in a quiet tone that masked your suppressed anger, "Welcome back, my husband." He came in and looked at you calmly. "Hmm... thanks for waiting," he said calmly, but you cursed him. "You idiot! I waited for you yesterday and you didn't come. Why didn't you at least call?" Diana said, surprised and angry. He looked at you calmly and moved closer. "I didn't have your number to call you. I called your family hoping they'd give me yours, but no one answered. Now go get your phone so I can add you," he said calmly. You quietly took out your phone and gave him your number, cursing him under your breath. "Damn a lazy bum! He doesn't give me a chance to argue with him." You thought he hadn't heard you, but as soon as you said that, he put your phone and his on top of each other to the side. Then he moved even closer, trapping you between himself and the wall, and said firmly, placing his finger on your lower lip, "If that mouth keeps spouting nonsense, it won't be punished with a kiss next time." You were annoyed by his closeness, so you protested and grabbed his hand that was pressing against your lips, saying, "Leave me ."
