CHAPTER 58

At night. Benjamin was sitting on his bed and watching the Lost Love series with his wife. She was sitting in her bed.

She was watching season four, so she glanced at Benjamin. “How can you understand it when you start in the middle? You are just watching it to get my attention, aren’t you?” “Why do you ask when you already know?” Benjamin chewed on roasted almonds rather angrily. Because of her, he had to watch the show in which Selena was one of the main leads. For him, it was a torture.

“Because I don’t like what you’re doing,” Rebecca said. “I can’t put complete focus on the tv show.”

“Huh? I’m sitting like six feet away from you!”

“Still, I can’t focus because of your chewing noises and scratching your beard every other minute. Why don’t you just sleep?” Benjamin could only sigh. “I don’t understand why you need to ‘focus’ while watching a romantic drama. I can easily guess the screenplay. The main leads get together after some long struggle and then easily break up because of some forced mistake or some stupid misunderstanding. Rinse and repeat. The acting and the comedy is okay, but there’s no real surprise or weight to the scenes. I can’t understand how this series became a huge hit.”

Despite all that he said, Rebecca didn’t seem to care. Either she was just so immersed in watching the tv-show, or she acted like it. Either way, it felt like he received an invisible slap from her.

“Whatever,” Benjamin covered himself with the blanket.
