Busy

"I don't know the reason for keeping his identity secret, but I know Daniel's mother," Rudi replied proudly.

"How do you know who Daniel's mother is?" Laura asked curiously. Rudi froze for a few moments and remembered that the topic of Claudia was sometimes a source of contention between him and Laura.

"Yes, let's just say that I know her from Herman's connection," Rudi replied briefly. He didn't want to start a new problem by saying that Daniel's mother was her ex-wife's friend.

Laura looked at Rudi suspiciously but she quickly dismissed such thoughts when she got nothing from Rudi's expression. She sighed. She couldn't continue to feel suspicious of her husband. Even though she was a little traumatized by what happened in the past she didn't want to continue to be prejudiced against Rudi. She gave him a second chance and the man came back into her life. All this time her husband had never let her down and gave her what she wanted.

"Honey, you're not thinking anything strange, are you?" asked Rudi as his hand began to touch Laura again. Laura woke up from her thoughts and found Rudi already behind her. He gently embraced her naked body and caressed her belly.

"I was just thinking about Mary," Laura lied.

"You shouldn't think too much about Mary when we are naked and hugging like this," Rudi said as he kissed Laura's shoulder. Laura closed her eyes and sighed softly, enjoying the man's gentle kisses on her body.

Rudi smiled mischievously when he saw Laura no longer resisting his touch. He turned her around and started a new round of their game.

Renessa looked up at the already dark sky with some trepidation. She walked hurriedly to her car and got in. She had to make a stop at the cake shop on her way to Daniel's apartment.

She had just finished doing a group project with some of her college friends. Since it was midterm exam period she was quite busy and it had been a week since she had updated him with the excuse of being busy preparing for the midterm exam.

I hoped he would not get angry at me for pushing him away a while ago. Renessa smiled as she remembered their last conversation at that time.

"Dear, can't you just take a break from your study for just an hour for me?" Daniel's voice sounded pitiful. He sounded really desperate and Renessa had to hold back a chuckle.

"I can't, honey. I'll keep thinking about you when I call you. I won't study after this because I will keep missing you," Renessa replied. She tried to stifle her laughter at the man's pleading tone.

"So we won't communicate during your exams in two weeks?" Daniel still sounded incredulous at Renessa's decision to stop their communication while he was in exams.

"I promise I'll come to see you when I finish my last exam," Renessa tried to persuade him.

"Okay," Daniel finally said after a long pause. He sounded resigned to his fate and sounded discouraged.

"You know that you can also come to the apartment if you miss me, right?" he quickly added after that.

Renessa could not hold her laugh anymore and chuckled, "I'm sorry honey, I probably won't have time to meet you or contact you. But I'll definitely reply to your messages, I promise."

Renessa smiled to herself remembering their conversation. The two began to grow closer and Renessa was no longer awkward about being spoiled for Daniel. Their relationship could even be considered quite bold.

Daniel often looked at her greedily and always tried to touch her body, he was ready to go further but Renessa was still afraid. The society where they live in would shun her and pull her down when they realize that she was doing this before the marriage. She had tried not to make a mistake where her father and his new family could use to pull her down. She had to be very careful with this.

Therefore, when Daniel tried to make an advance on her, she always moved away. In the end, they would stop after a brief making out session. Renessa did not want to tease the man and herself more than this.

Renessa took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly. Last night, she had finally made a decision. It was a very bold decision. After their brief separation, she didn't want to hold back anymore. She was going to give him her virginity for their two-year anniversary. She just could not keep pushing him away and after some thought this is their personal problem. No one did not really care about their bed problem and those who seemed like they cared might just be curious about their life.

Renessa felt her hands start to sweat when she thought about this. She knew she was going a little overboard with her decision. But she already knew Daniel and his family. Daniel's family had even welcomed her as his wife as if they were already married. They always invited Renessa to every family event and considered her part of their family.

This is what made Renessa believe their relationship was only a matter of time before Daniel proposed to her. Renessa knew Daniel was waiting for her to finish college as soon as possible. Daniel told her almost a year ago that he wanted to marry her as soon as possible, but his mother told him to wait for a bit since she was still in college.

Renessa stepped into the pastry shop near Daniel's apartment. The man was a fan of chocolate and he loved the brownies at the bakery. Renessa had ordered a cake there and was just picking up her order.

After making sure that everything was just the way she wanted it, Renessa finished her payment and headed to Daniel's apartment.

Renessa parked her car in the parking lot and opened the message sent by Lucia, Daniel's mother.

Lucia had told her that Daniel would probably be home late at night as he was busy preparing for a movie shoot.
