They buried themselves in work when it was time to get off work and the went home together.

The days went by in a blink of an eye and it was already weekend. Courtney decided to lazy around at home and decided to watch a movie today since she has been working so hard on the case against Jonathan Charles she decided to take a break during the weekend after taking her bath and having her breakfast she went to the living room to watch a movie she was watching an action movie with a big popcorn that she was eating by the side. David came downstairs in his home clothes and saw her watching the movie he was amused when he saw her so engrossed in the movie Mrs Williams decided to lazy around huh he said standing in the middle of the television making it difficult for her to watch the movie David Williams after making me work my ass for a whole week move aside let me continue with my movie Courtney shouted and threw a pillow at him he moved aside and sat down beside her mind If I join you Courtney he asked what if I say no David she retorted back well even if you say no wife am going to accompany you to watch this movie David said I know the king of hell don't have any interest in watching movies so why do you want to accompany me to watch a movie she asked well you are right I don't watch movies but you love watching movies and I will accompany my wife in whatever she loves doing David said truthfully she didn't say anything again and focused on watching the movie. David has been tired from the week's work he leaned on Courtney shoulders and slept off Courtney wanted to push him away but when she saw the dark circles under his eyes she didn't have the heart to do so and focused on watching the movie.
