The next few days passed quietly.
For the first time since their marriage began falling apart...
Adrian stopped asking Vivian the same question.
“Can you forgive me?”
Instead...
He simply showed up.
Monday morning.
Vivian came downstairs dressed for work.
As she reached for her car keys, Adrian spoke.
“Breakfast is on the table.”
She looked over.
It wasn’t elaborate.
Just toast, scrambled eggs, fruit, and coffee.
“You made this?”
Adrian nodded.
“I looked up a recipe.”
She sat down.
The eggs were slightly salty.
The toast was a little darker than it should have been.
She took another bite anyway.
Adrian smiled to himself.
It wasn’t much.
But she hadn’t walked away.
Tuesday.
Vivian worked late finishing a presentation for an international client.
By the time she left L&B Interior Studio, the parking lot was almost empty.
She sighed.
Her phone battery had died.
Just as she wondered how she’d get home...
A familiar black sedan pulled up beside her.
The passenger window rolled down.
Adrian looked at her.
“I figured you’d work late.”
“You’ve been doing that all week.”
Vivian frowned.
“How did you know?”
“I asked the security guard what time employees usually leave.”
She looked at him for a long moment.
Then quietly got into the car.
The drive home was peaceful.
No awkward apologies.
No pressure.
Just soft music playing in the background.
Halfway home, Adrian noticed her rubbing her temples.
“Headache?”
“A little.”
Without another word, he lowered the volume of the music.
He even took a quieter route to avoid traffic.
Vivian noticed.
She didn’t say anything.
But she noticed.
Wednesday.
Chris walked into Vivian’s office carrying two cups of coffee.
“I brought your favorite.”
Vivian smiled.
“Thank you.”
Chris placed one cup on her desk.
Then frowned.
“Wait...”
“Didn’t Adrian used to bring you coffee?”
Vivian looked down.
“He never knew what I liked.”
Chris blinked.
“What?”
She smiled sadly.
“He always ordered black coffee.”
“I don’t drink black coffee.”
Chris stared at her.
“You’ve been married for years.”
“I know.”
That evening...
Vivian arrived home to find a cup waiting on the kitchen counter.
Beside it was a sticky note.
> Vanilla latte.
Chris told me it’s your favorite.
I’m sorry it took me this long to learn.
- Adrian
Vivian gently held the warm cup in both hands.
She didn’t smile.
She didn’t cry.
She simply stood there...
Wondering why something so small...
Could make her heart ache so much.
Thursday morning...
Vivian walked downstairs, expecting another quiet breakfast.
Instead, she found Adrian standing in the kitchen, staring at his phone with a frustrated expression.
She paused.
“Is something wrong?”
Adrian looked up.
“I think I burned the pancakes.”
Vivian glanced at the frying pan.
“I don’t think they’re burned.”
He looked hopeful.
“You don’t?”
“They’re beyond burned.”
“They’re charcoal.”
For a second, Adrian stared at her.
Then...
