Fiancée

Ashley

We reached our hotel after a small drive. I opened the door to our room.

“I like this teddy! It is so freaking cute!” I tried to lighten the atmosphere as I entered the room.

I didn’t hear any reply, instead the sound of the door being locked. I turned to face him.

“Chris?” I asked, referring to the lock. “You really don’t need to lock it”

“I will,” he replied.

I looked at him with an unsure expression, before going to the bed and sitting down. He was rather angry and I didn’t even know the reason.

“Why are you angry, Chris? I know you told me not to ask any questions, but I can’t let you be angry… please?” He took a seat beside me.

“I don’t wanna be angry, Ash,” he took my hand. His touch was harsh, and quite cold. “But I am”

“Just give me a reason. I will improve…”

He left my hand and took out his phone. “Do you know Jason?”

“Jason... um… oh! Ms. Heather’s assistant?” I remembered him.

“Yes,” he replied.
