Chapter 7

I woke up in the morning, feeling all sleepy still. I woke up beside McLain, he was still sleeping. I watched him sleep. It was a beautiful sight. His face was so cute to wake up to, and then when it becomes the first thing you see in the morning, it is beautiful to witness that. I was getting used to seeing him every morning but it is never a tiring sight as I have never gotten tired of always seeing his pretty face every morning. I sat there on the bed, looking at how he slept so calmly.

Trust me, I had no plans to get involved in any argument with him as I quickly tapped him that it was morning already. I did not want him waking up and asking me why I did not wake him up. I was not going to let that happen. McLain would not mind that it was still very early to tell me if I failed to do something. I was always careful about his sleep time.

He woke up after I tapped him and maybe wanted to say a thank you as he looked at me but it never came out of his mouth. He just dashed into the bathroom to take his bath. I was expecting him to at least say some words about him being a grateful person as I did not make a mistake this time. I watched him pass me and went to the bathroom to take his bath, such a hard nut to crack.

" Such an ungrateful being" I cursed under my breath. He could have thanked me but look at how ungrateful he was. What If I intentionally did not wake up one day, he would have the boldness to talk about how stupid I am?

I sat on the bed, I saw a book by the corner of his bed, picked it up, and decided to read it. I like the designs. I dropped the book and went to the cupboard, the one that was beside McLain's side of the bed. I opened it and saw other books there, they were mainly business books. I picked some to take a look at them. I dropped them and closed the cupboard. I went back to bed. Picked up the one I had dropped on the bed and began flipping through the pages.

He came out of the bathroom looking all hot. I could not take a good look at that hot body of his as he quickly went into the dressing room. I had to keep my attention on the book.

I continued to read the book.

" You should go take your bath" he shouted from the dressing room.

" Going somewhere?" I asked him

" Do not stress me, go take a bath" he yelled at me. I was not stressing him in any way. That was just a question for Earth's sake, what is wrong with this man, is this how it was going to be for me?

Guess I do not have to ask questions.

I went to take my bath. Which I did and came out. I was with only towels tied to my body. The water was still dripping from my hair.

He gazed at me, I knew I was so a

appealing, I saw the way he looked at me. He swallowed as he turned, backing me. I smiled as I went to get dressed, why did he turn his back on me, was I too hot for him to stand still and look at me? I smiled to myself. I was appealing to him. That's a step.

I came out and he looked at me, looking rather shocked.

" What is this, what are you putting on, Emily?" He asked me. I wore a dress, what did it look like for Earth's sake?

" Should I change it?" I asked him instead, looking confused as to why he was asking such a dumb question.

" We are heading out, get something proper, you can not go out with me looking like this, do you know who I am and the profile I hold? Emily, go get something better than this and wear" he said to me looking at me with a disdainful look. I was once again annoyed.

I went back to the dressing room to change my outfit. I did change it and came out only for him to shake his head feeling disgusted at me. It was not what he wanted. But that was my best clothes.

They were my best clothes. I did not have what he wanted me to wear. I looked sad as he expressed his displeasure by sighing.

" Did you hear what I said, I said we are going out, and you should be properly dressed, not wearing some low-quality outfit to follow me around, you can not go out with me looking like this" he said to me, his eyes looking at me from my head to my toes.

" They are my best clothes, and I just have these to wear," I said in a low tone, I did not want to cry as I spoke in a low tone.

" Do not worry about it, we will get some outfits for you on the way," he said to me. It made me smile, I quickly forgot that I was about to cry. This was one of the moments when he was being kind to me.

We went downstairs to have breakfast. It was a sandwich, fried potatoes, coffee, and a plate of my favorite fruit placed in front, a plate of pineapple.

We finished having our breakfast and we went outside.

We got to where he had parked his cars.

We stood beside it till a young man came, he must be the driver. McLain got into the car, leaving me outside.

" Get in," he said to me, I wasn't going to take it, I wanted the gesture of him opening the car door for me.

" Aren't you coming down from there to get the car door for me?" I asked him. I shake his head at me.

" Seems you aren't interested in coming along," he said as he gave a signal to the driver to drive, I waved at him to stop as I got into the car. Such a human.

We drove out of the house. I have not been to the big towns. My life had been work, house, and work again. I haven't taken a tour anywhere far from my workplace or my house. Grandma would not let me.

I enjoyed the nice views of the City.

The car came to a stop at a big mall. I have heard about it but never came here.

Little inside my heart, I was glad I married McLain, not so glad though because McLain was in no way close to who I wanted.

We got out of the car and I walked with him into the mall. Outside the mall didn't do justice to how inside was bigger and even more beautiful.

The ladies that were there, that had seen McLain enter the mall tropped to meet him.

" He is so handsome, I wish I could get a night" I heard one of the girls say. I felt disgusted, like throwing all I ate for breakfast to her face.

They began to touch. McLain who seems to be enjoying all of it, smiling at the ladies. I was angry at how silly he looked. I raised my hands and hit him in his arms.

" What was that for?" He asked me as he turned to me. I kept a straight face at him. He somehow understood it as he signaled his driver to take care of the shameless Ladies.

We moved to a private space instead. There, McLain gave the order that he didn't want to see anyone else in that space.

We sat there, it was a beautiful place. Then a lady walked in, she was holding a tray in her hands. She brought it for us, keeping it on a glass table.

" For you both," she said sweetly. I suspected it was part of her job to be extremely sweet to customers, guess she was only taking chances on McLain because I didn't get such a gesture from her.

Minutes into shopping, a lady walked in, behind her was the storekeeper. She appeared sophisticated. She looked like someone of a high profile.

"What's this, thought I didn't want anyone in here?" McLain asked

" Sweetheart, why wouldn't you want me here, heard you were here and I couldn't keep you waiting," the lady said to him, coming to him

McLain pulled her hands from his body.

" Look, I do not know you, and I would love to have a private space, leave here now"

" And if I choose to stay?" She asked him, Sitting down in one of the chairs, she picked up the biscuits that were on the tray and ate them.

I looked at McLain and back at the lady. Guess McLain is in for it.
