All throughout today at work and on their way home but Gabriella’s mind was already made up, she could no longer deal with him and the troubles he threw her way.

Gabriella folded her hands across her chest, her gaze fixed on the empty space in front of her.

“Thank you for letting me stay here for time being,” Jayden voiced as he finally packed up his bags and headed for the door.

“Yeah,” Gabriella muttered, her face stoic and expressionless, she sat still where she was her hands still folded across her chest.

I would have fought for what I deserved!” Jayden said and Lydia shook her head with a small smile as she hit him playfully on his shoulder.“Didn’t you just hear what I said?!

    Three weeks later ….Saturday Morning ….“Heyyyy, my wife, how are you doing?!” Jayden yelled smiling brightly at Tori who just came to the backyard to spread her cloth on the line.“My runaway husband!” She called in reply with a small smile as she placed her bucket on the floor and began to squeeze out her clothes and spread them on the line.“And truly your husband will runaway!” Gabriella imputed playfully, stepping out into the backyard to join Jayden where he was packing up the clothes they spread earlier.“Because I don’t understand why you’re harassing my guest!” She said, Tori chuckled lightly as she turned to look at Gabriella.“Really, guest after one month, I know I told you nobody is taking your husband away from you, but at this point he is our husband!” Tori replied and Jayden bursted out laughing, as he placed the clothing peg in the basket Gabriella came with.“Well, I’m enough to go round for everyone,” he said, Gabriella hit his arms and rolled her eyes at him.“Eww
