Lydia's POV
A few days later, on a Sunday morning, I woke up next to him gleefully. However, my smile faded when I remembered how he was yelling at someone on the call. I couldn't hear him clearly, it was muffled by the door. I'm not someone who eavesdrops on others' conversations as well.
However, I did inquire him about it on the same night. He dismissed me completely, forcing me to turn around in the bed as he switched the lights off and we cuddled until we fell asleep. This same sequence of events happened last night as well. When I asked him what was going on in his head, he simply avoided talking about it and shushed me until I gave up and fell asleep.
The curtains are closed and we are cuddled up close to each other in the coldness. The winter this year is going to be harsh, weather reports predicted.
