"Is that how you come home, Colten?" My voice expressed both worry and longing, words slipping out without me noticing. My heart was filled with both anger and concern about his condition. I wanted to understand what happened to him, getting drunk. But even with all that, my love and longing for my husband stayed strong, even if I felt a little resentful. Especially since it was so late and he still came home in this condition.

I was upset because I hoped he would come home in the morning like he said before leaving for work, but he didn't keep his promise.

The words tumbled out of my mouth like stones, heavy with worry and frustration, as I watched him disregard my presence and continue with his task. It was as if a sharp blade pierced my chest, leaving behind a throbbing ache as he paid me no heed and proceeded to remove his shoes.

I also felt thirsty and hungry, sensing my husband was keeping something from me. I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease; he hadn't told me anything, but I had a hunch. I let out a deep sigh, hearing my husband's voice at the bar counter. He was probably drinking again, and there must be something bothering him that he wasn't telling me."Julius, update me from time to time. You can't just let everything we've worked for go to waste. If you need to play dirty, do it. That mayor is good at that anyway!" I couldn't help but feel sad at what I heard. I've already told him to avoid meddling in government affairs because they play dirty, and I don't want him or our children to get into trouble.
