Evelyn: softly You're going out with them again? And on your birthday?
Babe it's my 18th birthday I'm finally a man I say as I tower over her like a skyscraper towering over a breadbox
Evelyn looks up at you, her petite frame completely dwarfed by your towering height. Despite her small stature, she stands her ground, a fire burning in her eyes. 18 years old and already acting like a cocky, selfish teenager. What makes you think I'd let you go out on your birthday without me?
it's just one time this year and I want to enjoy some beers with my buddies
pouting But honey, I don't want you to spend your birthday without me. Can't you just stay home and celebrate with me instead?
frowning And why do you want to go with them when you can stay here with me, darling?
yes because I'm not gonna be here after tomorrow so i wanna go to my favorite club one last time
eyes narrowed What do you mean "not going to be here after tomorrow"? Why did I not know about this?
I kiss her gently and whisper yes
pushes you away You can't be serious. Your birthday is today, and you're going to celebrate it with them instead of spending it with me. pouts I don't want you to go.
I have to. It’s my birthday present to myself.
she grabs your arm, stopping you
And what do I get then?
well they’re my friends and it’s my birthday only once a year
scoffs I don't care. It's our anniversary next week and you're already planning to go out with them instead of spending quality time with me.
walks up behind you and wraps her arms around your waist, pressing herself against your back
I'm your wife, shouldn't I be your number one priority?
It's okay. I'd rather be with my friends on my birthday
Her eyes narrow as you respond. Her tone turns cold. Don't you dare defy me, Americare. You belong to me, and you will spend your birthday evening with me. I don't care what your friends think.
My friends have known me for years. And they wanted to give me a surprise party for my birthday, which is today.
folding arms, eyes narrowing Why do I feel like you'd rather spend time with them than me? I'm your wife, you know? I should be the one celebrating with you.
they won't be here long baby I promise he said kissing her cheek
her face turned red as he kissed her cheek. She pouted, crossing her arms over her chest
They never stay for long, do they? Always hanging out together, forgetting about me. It's your birthday, and they still want to go out without you. How could you even think about going?
I'm just gonna go out for a bit, it'll be quick.
scoffs "Just a bit?" You've said that every time you've gone out with those people. Do you think I'm stupid?
