101-It's Fate Again

I clearly underestimated my boyfriend and my husband. Despite such a serious issue, they both were engaged in a staring contest now. None of them wanted to back off.

"Ok, guys,” I clapped to get their attention, "Can we sort it out like adults please?" "There is nothing to sort it. You are my wife!" Justin said not moving an inch.

"Exactly, Mr. Deluca." Gerald was proving to be a true friend, "She might be your wife. I might be her boyfriend. But I am not leaving her side unless she asks me to do so."

Now their eyes were on me.

"Ashley. You should tell him that we are still married!" Justin said without even bothering to look at me.

"I will, Justin." I said and earned an affectionate smile from him until I finish it off, Ì will exactly do that if you can give US some space... Some privacy."

He frowned and looked at me, "It shouldn't take that long to tell him that..." "Justin!" I forced some warning vibes into my voice, "Can you please wait outside? I need to talk to Gerald."

Justin kept looking at me and then just to make Gerald jealous he came forward and kissed my forehead, "I am waiting for you in the parking." He was about to turn around when Gerald spoke, "You can leave, Mr. Justin. I will drop her home.” Justin was about to open his mouth in protest when I gave him a don't-mess-with-me look.

"Gerald, honey. Can you wait for a little bit?" Without waiting for his reply, I held Justin's arm and almost pulled him with me.

"Where are we going? And why this as*hole was calling you, his girlfriend?

You called him HONEY! Kitten!"

Instead of responding to any of his whinings, I stopped, once inside the reserved parking lot.

"Justin," I knocked on his car so that he could unlock the door, "Go home, baby. I will call you once I will reach home."

He went quiet after that. I had this sudden urge to touch his jaw that he was clenching with all his might. The nerve ticking there, I wish I could trace it with my finger.

When he was inside the car and was about to close the door, I leaned down and kissed his cheek, "Justin."

Instead of looking at me, he stared ahead, "Go to him, Ashley. He might be waiting!" Oh, great. He was mad at me. Without giving any explanations, I straightened, 1 "I guess you are right!" with that I banged the car door and went out of the parking lot without a backward glance.

Gerald was standing at the same spot where I left him.

"I can’t believe this," Gerald shook his head, "It seems like a romantic movie trailer being played before my eyes."

Gerald shuddered and chugged some coke from his can.

"I know, right?" I said while toying with my noodles. We both were in the university café that was almost secluded at this hour.

"So, you decided to barge into his engagement party where he was not getting engaged?" he remarked in disbelief, "I never knew you were a zero zero seven!" "Ah! You underestimated me, Gerald? Shame on you!" I threw a noddle piece at him that he dodged successfully.
