He Hadn't Rejected Her

Maya sliced the cake, still feeling a bit awkward for admitting to cyberstalking her husband. She handed a plate to him and he sipped his coffee before taking a bite. She had noticed that he liked having the bitterness come before the sweetness in all their time together. 

"This is delicious," Vincent told her. "Thank you."

She smiled. Chocolate was usually a safe bet and she had specifically asked for salted caramel frosting knowing how much he liked those dark chocolates with salted caramel filling when they went to Ghirardelli Square.

"Glad you like it."

They ate the rest of their breakfast in a comfortable silence. Maya knew there was a lot to do today since construction had reached a stage where Vincent needed to start wiring Cassandra into a building or two that was getting close to being finished.

At least on his part. She didn't have much to do at all, which was why her phone was fully charged and she brought several books with her.
