Chapter 5: Forgotten

He gently strokes my back as I lay down in bed, holding me close. His lips move down to the crook of my neck as his hand moves up and down my bare thigh.

"Oh, Lucas..."

"I want to make you happy, Dianna. I want to give you a child." His soft lips continued to caress my neck, down to my chest.

"You're so beautiful, honey." My body arched, when I started to feel 'him' in my womanhood.

"It makes me want you even more." My fingers dig into his shoulders as his mouth presses against mine passionately. My heart races in a rush and I feel like crying out with happiness as he pushes me onto my back with a kiss so powerful.

"Ohhh, L-Lucas..." I closed my eyes, I bit my lip when I felt his length.

My body trembled, as he continued his movement, his lips could not be removed from my chest. We exchanged hot kisses and deep moans until I felt the heat that came from him take over my being.

"Mmm..." I slowly opened my eyes because of the strong sunlight coming from the window in our room. I stretched out my hands.

"Honey?"

"L-Lucas?" I groped the side of the bed where I was lying but when I turned around Lucas was gone and like before he went to work early again.

I stood up from lying down, I could feel that my insides were wet below. I fell on my forehead and took a deep breath realizing that it was all just a dream.

Until I arrived at the office, I had no appetite for my every move, although my co-workers always greeted me.

"Dianna?" I heard Chelsea's voice.

"Come in," I said weakly.

"Coffee? I made you some, because I noticed you looked like a zombie hanging on the air, maybe you need something to wake you up." I smiled at him and put the coffee cup down on the table.

"Are you okay? I mean, you're feeling lethargic? Is it because Lucas can't drive you here anymore?" I smiled bitterly.

"Hello? Speak up!"

"I talked to Lucas about us having a child."

"Ah, really? So, what did he say? Did he grab you for a kiss right away or maybe he was so excited that he inserted his weapon into you right away?" I leaned against him and leaned on my swivel chair.

"He's not ready yet."

"He said he wanted to focus on the problems with their company first."

"What?!"

"That Lucas! What if the problem doesn't end with his work? Maybe you're in menopause and he still has no plans to have children with you."

"I can't force him, Chelsea. Besides..."

"What?"

"He promised me. As long as the company is stable, we will continue with our plan to have a child."

"Oh, I really don't know, Dianna. Don't you doubt your husband?"

"I mean, don't you really notice anything?" My heart pounded, I averted my gaze from her.

"N-Nothing. Chelsea, she's really really busy with work. And she promised me, and I can wait."

"I know my husband. I know that he also wants us to have a child."

"Well, if that's your decision. Of course I can't do anything, I don't own your husband's dick." I threw the empty folder at her.

"Crazy woman, get out now! Maybe someone else will hear what you're saying. That'll be so embarrassing."

"Oh! I'm just being honest, Dianna! I just want you to be happy too. Just don't let your husband hurt you."

"And I wish..."

"I hope you are right, and my suspicions are wrong."

That's what I did, I waited. I also pray every day that their company will be stable. I just thought that what he was doing was for us too.

The day of my birthday arrived, which I always look forward to because on this occasion the surrounding is filled with joy, although in recent years our family has not been able to attend because they are on abroad.

I also don't feel like there's anything missing, because I'm with my husband and he never fails to make me feel how special I am. But now I can't deny that something is wrong, that something has really changed.

I woke up early, I didn't see him by my side. I didn't even think about anything negative. In my mind, with every step I took out of our room I was more eager for the surprise I might find. I have been thinking for a few days about what trick he will do to make my birthday memorable again this year.

"Good morning, honey!" I greeted him enthusiastically, and when I got close to him, I gave him a tight hug.

"I guess you woke up early today?" he asked, adjusting the hem of his work clothes. My gaze landed on the things he had prepared.

"Where are you going?" When he looked back at me, he still couldn't believe it.

"Dianna, what kind of question is that? I'm probably going to work." My eyebrows met slightly.

"B-But, aren't we going somewhere, and then you have a surprise for me?" The edge of his lips lifted.

"Seriously? I think you're still sleepy, Dianna. Maybe you were dreaming while you were awake."

"No, Lucas. You're joking me right? It's a special day. You always get some off from your work to give me surprises every year, during this day."

"Special day?" I hesitated, hoping that maybe he was just kidding me, after all, this is what is trending on social media these days.

"You really need to have your breakfast, Dianna. I am going. See you later."

My shoulders fell when he still didn't respond about my birthday and I couldn't believe it even more when he took his bag and walked out of our house. I immediately followed him.

"Today's my birthday, Lucas. And you just simply forgot it for the very first time," I said with tears running down my cheeks.
