In a bed

room, Charles lay down on the bed, Beatrice walk in, Charles stood

'Hey' Charles

'Charles I'm

safe, and I do things right'

'I also owe

a business , what you doing affect everyone' Charles said shrug his shoulder

'I should

worry about myself' she said furiously walking off him

'Ok, that's

ridiculous, we doing things wrong here' he said taunt, turning to her

' You misfit

in my own life, expecting me to be in the box and enhance your success, because

I'm your wife, that doesn't play well to me' she walked to her closet, fumbling

through

' No because

you are a mother, for family we protude some part of are life' He walks to her,

his hands throw to the air. 'You have kids and you shouldn't thud on their

growth' he mutter

'I'm trying

to balance the two' her ear ring unstable to remove, the argument heating up

'Hand over

to a person, you tugging and imperceptible on the family growth, is selfish' that strike so fervor to hear

'I put my

family first in everything. That company is the only memory I have from my Dad,

the smell every brick bring me memories and that give me so much peace' she said

calmly, on her face show distort

'What more

do you want Beatrice, must you create a competition, I'm diligent in my role as

a father and a husband, should we teach the rules in marriage again' words keep

gushing out of his mouth, without a held, Charles show so much rage and rave, Beatrice

plug her tongue,

'I see where

this is coming from, you are so insecure' 

smirk with a curve cheek. ' I do need

a space, this is not working Charles, you know that'

'Come on,

Beatrice' He grunt throwing his hands up, so frantically

'I do, cause

this is tedious, I'm losing it, I need…, I need a space, I have to' her voice

mild and shudder, she left the room

'That's all

you are good at, walk away' he roared, sat on bed, covers his face with his

hand

 

....

 

The office cozy

of fragrance and smell of papers, Beatrice stood from her office chair, walk to

the soft hairy gray couch face the view, with a table and two sofa grey chairs

facing each other, and space in the office with a sitting room set up, of

climate at building, her phone stick to her ear, so much dissentient and agony, the intensity flows the room

'Mum, I'm

telling you, you never gonna see my face, why you based on destroying the

family' a female voice roared on phone, the word shimmered Beatrice through,

shutter her

'You know

that I'm trying, and I will always put the family first before considering my

feelings, that is so unfair, to think of me like that' voice whisper in sob and

pain

'You don't

fucking care, you don't. You want a separation, discard every other thought and

idea on putting things together' she roared, the phone hang, the phone drop

from Beatrice as she tremble, tears wet her eye. A knock came, she wipes her

eyes. The door open, Hailey walk in

'Ma'am, here

the document , you requested' Hailey wrap her hands around the file, Beatrice

pointed at the desk, Hailey place the file on the desk. She stares at Beatrice inspecting

her mood, she couldn't get herself to leave, she walked to the door then

walking to Beatrice, who tried to reset and peel the feeling hurting her

'Are you ok

Mrs Beatrice?' she stood beside the couch, Beatrice trying to dispute the

facial express, stares at her with a fix smile

'Yea' she force

the word

'I know, I

won't understand and is none of my business but, I can listen' she console

'Is a slight

headache, I will be fine' held her head

'I will be

back' she left, walk back with a glass cup of water and a tablet, tosh it in

her hand and hand her the glass, sat beside, watch her drop the pills in her

mouth with a flush of water

'Thank you'

Beatrice said her slightly open, Hailey took her hand massaging it, Beatrice

stares at Hailey, she couldn't hide the

pain which pierce through her heart, Beatrice heart racing and falling very

slow, her head place on the couch, Hailey drown close with a tiny space between

them, Hailey eye reflect a distraught and tamed Beatrice hide, Beatrice head

fall on Hailey shoulder like an ease of her pain on Hailey shoulder, Hailey

couldn't dismiss the feeling of praise on her face, she grin. Few hours later

Hailey face tilt up her head on the couch, dozing, while the weight of Beatrice

head hang on her shoulder, a phone alarm shot Hailey up from sleep, eyes open

wittily before it could raise another sound, Hailey click on the screen to

silent the sound with her left hand slow and quick, keeping the other shoulder

Beatrice placed her head on strain, with imperfect on restricting the body move

Beatrice wake with just a slight move of her body.

'What…, what

are you still doing here?' Beatrice said as her eyes blurred. 'What's the time'

she asked curiously

'You fall

asleep, I couldn't leave with my shoulder, laid as a pillow' She said wittily

smiling

'I'm sorry, oh

my God is closing time' she panic, roaming her eyes, a slight of dizzy wheeling

in her eyes. 'You should have wake me Hailey' she frown

'I'm sorry,

I thought you needed time to rest your head' she said calmly

'Yea, thank

you, we wanna be going is late' she said frantically, her eyes survey the room

. 'I'm driving you home, go get your things'

'I will be

fine, I will get a cab'

'No…,no, go

get your things' her voice glitches,

walking to her desk

'To avoid

nature to repeat it self, much preference to get cab' she said without a hold,

with a straight face, Beatrice gaze at 

her with a face shrink , narrowed eye

'Go get your

things, Hailey' Beatrice said calmly, like Hailey voice tragedy her motion

 

...

 

In Beatrice

car in car slot, Hailey held into the car, Beatrice waited patiently for her

comfort, start the car an alarm signal to her, she pulled the seat belt, clinch

almost at Hailey's lips, as she clip the seat belt, Hailey eyes couldn't resist

the tense, watch Beatrice lean back on her seat, Hailey she swallowed hard.

Beatrice rattle the engine without even staring at her, her face fixed on front

'You know, I

feel some sort of resent why I study oenology, I feel like I should have study

cardiology, cause I would, know how to keep my heart safe' her voice got so

deep and weak, face straight just at the window, Beatrice felt her heart

melting and fragile, she glimpse at her. 'I wou.., would pay to get my memory wiped

and live in a different state, to be safe'. Beatrice ignored her rolling the

steeling. 'Is it that you pretending or you are just scared' her voice troll whispering

'Because it's

a script, I can't act in, every voice, look and breath, feel so impossible' she

mumbled, her eyes lose

'I will keep

the voice down, keep the eyes blind and bridge the breath to keep us safe,

Tricy I'm crazy about you, I'm losing myself just because of you' she said so

broken and drained , Beatrice stare at her for few minutes, her eyes search

around, get the face to satisfaction,

she draw her face closer to Hailey, her lip force Hailey mouth opened, the merge

of their nose, breath each others air, Beatrice swallowed Hailey's lips,

creating no space to breath, they pant, Beatrice hand relax on Hailey's

face caresses her cheek, inhale so deep, Beatrice pulled, looking

down, restart the car again. This time her stares was just on the watch, no

side gaze. Hailey the whole trip was silent. Hailey on bed reviewing the moment

Beatrice kisses her, all blushes and glimpses, flourishing her memory with

fantasy, sleep couldn't get her mind to rest, patiently waiting for heaven to

lighten the day.
