The Love That Passed

Colleen’s POV

Jared left for work and I was in my room thinking about what had happened to me and Jared. It has been a week since that incident happened and until now, I still can’t believe that it does.

That was unexpected. I never thought that it was possible for us to be intimate. One of the reasons was my condition. I was just so thankful that he was gentle.

Even after that, we still sleep in a separate room. I didn’t want to go into his room on the second floor because I felt like it was too tiring for me. I remember when we woke up that day;

*** Flashback ***

“Did you sleep well?” he asked when I opened my eyes. At first I was disoriented and thinking why was he in my room, then I heard him say again, “Don’t tell me you already forget what we just did.” then I remember what just transpired.

Because of that, I got shy and tried to get up but he stopped me, “Where are you going?”

“I need to pee,” I answered.

“Make it fast and come back here.” he said then I got up. He was so demanding, why is he so demanding? I went to the bathroom and did my thing. I didn’t know that doing that was messy and until now, there are some of our juices that were dripping down my legs. I cleaned up real fast because I didn’t want him to wait.

I went out of the bathroom and I still found him lying on my bed. I walked my way to the closet to get my clothes but when I was about to get one, Jared stopped me.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

“What are you doing?” he asked. He got up from the bed really fast and he was in his birth suit. I know my face is red now.

“Getting my clothes to wear,” I answered looking at him, confused. But instead of saying something, he carried me which made me scream.

“I am not gonna do anything, I just want us to stay in the bed and talk.” he said looking at me. He was handsome, but I never saw him smile. I wonder how handsome he was when he did.

“We can do that after we get dressed.” I replied.

“I want to see you naked, don’t you want to see me like that too?”

“What??” I exclaimed. Then he put me down in my bed and then joined me. I covered myself with my comforter and I heard him chuckling. I looked at him because I wondered why he did that and then I saw the side of his lips raised. Did he just smile? No it was just my imagination, I think.

“We should have talked after we did that but you slept on me.”

“I feel tired and whenever that happens, I sleep.”

“Tired for a round. I guess that’s your limit.”

“What limit?” I was confused.

“Just like what we did earlier, after we cum together, you are tired. I guess there’s no round two when we do that again.”

“Oh, that. I am not allowed to do that. I’m sorry.” I said I was full of regret. I like the feeling and I myself want to do it over and over again.

I could feel him looking at me but I didn’t bother looking at him. I know that he was curious. “What do you mean?”

“Uhm, I am not healthy enough to, you know.” I replied. I heard him sighed and I felt guilty. How can I not, when I cannot fulfill my duty as his wife fully. I think he was disappointed.

“Are you sick?” he asked and then I nodded. I wanted to cry that we are talking about this now and I didn’t want where our conversation was going. I didn’t want to tell him about the money that I was borrowing from him before.

The way I look at him now made me think that he will feel guilty about it. So no, I shouldn’t tell him that. “Stay in my room from now on.” he replied and I can’t do that. I didn’t want to go up and down the stairs.

“I am fine here, I already told you that this room is perfect for me.” I replied and then he looked at me. Now I can see that he was angry.

“You still want to have a separate room after what has happened to us? I thought that after this, you will not be stubborn enough and agree with me.” he said and I looked down.

“I can follow you but not on certain things. Here, in this room, I get to go out in the morning and get the morning sun I needed. The kitchen is just a few steps away and the living room. Everything was down here.” I replied.

“My room is on the second floor. Isn’t that enough for you to stay there?” He asked and I looked down again. After what had happened, I wanted to stay in his bedroom and sleep with him. But it was really tiring for me. I only went to his room when I prepared his clothes for work the following day and after that, I was down here.

“I’m sorry,” I replied, not looking at him. I heard him sighed deeply then he got up and pick-up his clothes and put them on. I was looking down and didn’t want to watch him leave my room.

“Colleen,” I heard him call my name.

“Hmm,” I replied, humming but I didn’t hear him talk and I stayed in my position. I was sitting hugging my legs with my forehead on my knees. Then I felt him raising my head.

“You’re crying.” he said then without knowing, I touched my face and felt tears on my cheeks. I was about to wipe it when he stopped me and wiped it himself then he kissed me. It was deep and passionate and I responded to him quickly. We were catching our breaths when we stopped. “Think about staying in my room. I will give you time for that.” he said and left. I was speechless, but even after giving me time, I know that I will still choose to stay here in my room. I sighed and got up from my bed to get dressed. I should be ready for dinner.

After that, Jared left the house and didn’t eat at home. I was so hurt because I thought we are OK now, but it turns out not. I had dinner by myself and got back to my room and didn’t say anything even if I saw Betty looking at me.

*** End of Flashback ***

Arrgghhh, it has been a week already and he has not talked to me ever since. I miss him and there’s nothing I can do about it. I still prepare his clothes but we haven’t seen each other again, just like before.
