Alex woke up to an empty side of the bed. He headed downstairs and found Lisa in the kitchen, cooking breakfast. He wrapped his arms around her from behind, greeting her. "Good morning, babe." He planted a soft kiss on her cheek.
However, Lisa's response was muted, her mind preoccupied with the lingering scent of alcohol on Alex's clothes. Instead of
reciprocating his greeting, she hummed softly.
Sensing something amiss, Alex pulled away slightly and leaned against the counter, studying her expression.
"Is everything okay, Lisa? Are you feeling alright, or is it your stitches bothering you?"
Lisa sighed, turning off the stove and facing him with crossed arms. "I'm fine," she replied curtly, her tone chilly. Noticing the change in her demeanor, Alex pressed further. "Why the cold tone, then?"
Lisa hesitated before speaking up. "Where did you really go last night?"
Alex hesitated for a moment, then replied, "I told you last night, that I was bust at the office."
Lisa shook her head, her expression firm. "You're lying, Alex. Your clothes reek of alcohol"
Alex's heart sank as he realized he had been caught. He paused, searching for the right words.
Finally, he admitted, "I did go to a club and had a few drinks, but that's all. I didn't do anything wrong.
Lisa looked at him sadly, her disappointment evident. "Why lie to me, Alex? You could have just told me the truth."
Alex ran a hand through his hair, feeling guilty. "I know, and I'm sorry. I just didn't want to disappoint you. I made a promise, and I couldn't keep it"
Lisa stepped closer, wrapping her arms around him in a comforting embrace. "You can tell me anything, Alex. I'll try to understand."
Alex returned the bug gratefully, feeling a mix of relief and remorse.
