A Disposable Husband

Yet, isn’t that one of the things that a husband does, listening to his partner’s problems?


If he decides to accept the offer. Gardner doesn’t quite know what to do yet. As much as he pities Kyle,he doesn’t want to involve himself in such an intricate situation between Kyle and his ex.


Wait, did he think pity? Who knows, maybe Kyle doesn’t need his pity at all. What he needs is a new husband so he can show his old one how good a partner he is. That just sounds so…wrong. Gardner moves closer to Kyle.


“So, when Bocelli sees that you’re capable of being a better husband, you’ll dump me to be with him again?”


For the second time Kyle blushes, a much deeper red this time.


“Don’t be ridiculous,” he snaps. “Antonio knows we’re not going to really be married. You’re not gonna be my real husband.”


“Yeah?” Gardner asks. “And you’re sure about that?”
