If she resigns, she knows that Maximus will build her a hospital and she does not want that to happen. Luna did not talk back. It is very complicated.
How can I spend my day off with Maximus if my schedule would changes?
“I am home,” Maximus said when he arrived and met his mom. He hugged her and kissed her cheeks.
When they parted, he saw her mother’s face. She is curious.
“What’s the matter? why are you looking at me like that?” He asked.
“I am just wondering why you went home without your wife?” His mom asked.
Maximus flinched. He suddenly gets worried after hearing about his wife. Where is Luna? His hurt thumped after looking at his wristwatch. It is already past midnight. Where is his wife and why is she not home yet?
“Hey, son. Relax” Alina stepped towards him and patted his shoulder after seeing his son’s worried face. He really did care for his wife.
“But she is not home yet,” Maximus said. Maximus knows his wife’s schedule. He knew that Luna arrived home first before him. This is the first time that Luna will go home late.
“Why don’t you go to Lucas hospital? Surprise her and pick her up” His mother suggested and smiled at him, giving him a sense of comfort. Maximus nodded and went back to his car. He drove fast to arrive at the hospital. He tried to contact his wife, but she is not answering his call.
At the Lucas hospital, because Luna’s schedule was changed, she needs to go home late. It is hard to go home at this hour because there is no taxi at midnight. Luna was waiting for how many minutes now but there is no single taxi passing in front of her. Her battery phone is already drained so she cannot contact her family at home especially her husband, Maximus.
Luna heaved a deep sigh because of frustration.
A red sports car stopped in front of her. She was busy thinking about her husband. Maximus would probably get worried because she is not home yet. She was hoping that Maximus picks her up because she is already exhausted. She did not notice the red car in front of her until the car window slid down and the driver called her attention.
“Get in, there’s no single taxi that will pass this road at this hour,” Shawn said looking at her.
“No need, my husband will pick me up,” Luna said and ignored her.
Shawn sighed. He remembered before that Luna is a hardheaded woman. She will do what she wants if she is mad. Is she still mad at him? He just wanted to help him. Right now, she is mad because of him. What can he do? He just wanted to be with her and see her every day, yet Luna did not feel the same way anymore.
“Maximus is a busy man. He is probably sleeping already, tired from waiting for you” Shawn said. He opened his car door and waited for Luna to come inside.
Luna still ignores her. She does not want to ride Shawn’s car or get near to him. It’s uncomfortable. Shawn still waits for Luna. He did not leave her until they both heard a dog howl. Luna shivers and gets scared so even if she does not want to ride with Shawn, she does not have a choice. In the end, she went inside his car and let him drive her home.
Not so far away was the car of Maximus driving towards them. He stopped when he saw Luna went inside a red sports car and it drove away. He clenched his fist that was holding the steering wheel when he recognized the owner of the red sports car. It is Shawn.
Why did Luna get inside of his car? Maximus thought.
He felt jealous because of what he saw, and at the same time, mad because Luna did not wait for him and Shawn, his friend, was taking advantage of his wife.
He tried to dial his wife’s number, but she did not answer his call. Did she turn off her phone? He is starting to worry but he tried his best to calm down because he is already stressed from work.
He drove home after calming himself and saw the red sports car leaving the mansion. It passed beside his car. He did not bother to look at who was driving the car because he already knew who it was.
When he got inside the mansion, he went straight to their room. The family, especially her mother, noticed his mood. He is mad. Her mother thought that something had happened when Maximus went to the hospital.
Maximus opened the door of their room and saw Luna’s bag. She is taking a shower. When Luna finished her shower, she immediately saw Maximus sitting in the master’s bedroom. She was so happy to see her husband. She walks toward him.
“Baby–” She saw him standing up and heading towards the shower ignoring her. She thought that Maximus would hug her tight, but he ignored her instead.
She turned her head to look at him and entered the shower room. What is wrong with him? She thought.
Luna was already stressed from work because of Shawn. She needs Maximus to regain his happiness. She wants him to put her in his embrace and comfort her, but it turns out that Maximus was not also in the mood.
She dries her hair using a blower and waits for Maximus to finish his shower. When Maximus went outside the bathroom, he quickly dried his hair and went to bed without talking to his wife.
“Maximus? Are you okay? Is there a problem?” Luna looked at him. She was facing his back.
“Nothing. I am just tired” he answered then completely ignored her.
“But–”
“I do not want to talk anymore. Let’s go to sleep”
“Okay goodnight, I love you” Luna answered but Maximus did not respond.
Luna bit her lips and thought maybe Maximus was really tired from work. She tried to understand him, but she knew that Maximus was lying. He was probably mad at something, but she cannot figure it out. She wanted to ask him about his problem like what he always does to her whenever she is sad, but Maximus did not want to talk to her.
