Chapter 56


    The soft jazz music filled my ears. My husband’s face was set alight by the romantic candlelight dinner


    we were currently


    enjoying


    I had finally made it to date night. With casting having wrapped two weeks ago and both our leads


    found I was taking it little easier before we had to start actually shooting


    Thest two weeks had been hell and I had not been the best wife to this incredible husband of mine,


    so when he came home from his trip from Vegas I told him we had ns.


    We had a few date nights here and there in thest two weeks but they had all been done at home. But


    this time I wanted to n something extra special for us.


    He reached over the table and inteced our fingers together. “You look beautiful my love”


    “Thank you, baby” I smiled, tightening my gmp on his


    I tried to put in that little extra effort because I wanted to look good for him. I kept the face makeup light


    but I opted for a blood-red lipstick. I even thought to wear a nice sexy ck dress that hugged my body


    perfectly


    It had been a while since I’d gotten all sexy for my man and I wanted him to feel special.


    I booked us a private room in the famous La Visca restaurant near Cbasas


    “How was Vegas?” I rubbed my thumb on the back of his hand


    “Good. I met with Corina while I was there. Well, actually I met her at the airport when I was heading


    home. She was flying out for a shoot in Bali


    My stomach dipped. My sister was also another person I hadn’t been giving attention to and she


    deserved it most after all she was going through with that idiot of a husband she had. Dealing with


    Ashton was its own personal hell


    “How is she?”


    Damon shrugged “As good as she can be I guess. But I can tell she’s sad. I see it in her eyes”


    I winced. “I’ll call her after our date.”


    “You should,” he tore his eyes from mine and looked down at my hand, well more specifically the ring


    on my finger. “When I put this ring on you it was all for show. I never once in a million years thought that


    I would have the pleasure of having you


    as mine.


    “I was always yours, Damon.” My voice came out low, I was too afraid to burst the small intimate


    moment we had created between each other. “Even when I didn’t know it fully in my heart. There was


    always a part of me that belonged to you.”


    He lifted his eyes to meet mine. The brown in them rose dancing against the me. “From that day


    when you found me 1 knew that you would be my sun, my moon my whole fucking gxy.


    His words were like sweet honey to my ears. Everything he was saying moved something in me. Even


    now when we were almost a year into our marriage he still affected me like it was the very first time.


    That was how I knew that this man would be


    my one. He set something inside of me on fire


    “You’re my universe, Damon” I tried to speak past the lump that had lodged itself in my throat. “And I


    am so sorry that 1-


    My words were cut off by the buzzinging from my phone. I looked down at the screen and saw that


    it was Steve from production


    “I’m sorry babe but I need to take this.” I ripped my hand from his and grabbed my phone standing from


    my seat. “Hello?”


    “Hey Adide, I’m sorry for calling in the evening like this.”


    “Oh no it’s fine,” I said looking at my husband who was staring at me with a nk expression on his


    face.


    “Are you free to talk? I have some news for you.”


    I actually wasn’t free to talk but this was Steve-aka my boss-and if he needed me I had to be at his


    beck and call. That was how my brain was choosing to reason it


    “Oh no. I’m not busy” I got up from my seat and made my way to the sliding door that led out to the


    balcony. The restaurant was set by the beach and as soon as I exited the room I was met with a rush of


    calm waves and the cool California


    breeze


    “So we got the approval on filming in the location in Vancouver so will you be set to leave tomorrow to


    view them?”


    This was such short notice but when it came to this project the sets were everything. If we could avoid


    building certain things then it we


    mean less money chowed away at our budget. So the only logical answer to give was


    my God! That’s so at

    and of course. I can” The level of excitement coursing through my veins was indescribable. that was


    out of the way. Things were truly moving smoothly now. “Okay, I’ll buy a ticket and

    “Awesome, you’re the best Adrde. I knew we made the right choice with you. Thank you!”


    “Of course, no problem at all. Bye, Steve”


    “By Adide He hung up the phone


    I did a little dance locking up at the heavens and


    had led to this very moment night here


    sing together. All the tears and the sadness


    I turned to go back into the room but found my husband leaning against the doorframe looking less


    than pleased. My smile


    sediately dropped and my mood turned sumber

    “Damon?”

    I watched him leave the dinner space and walk out the door leaving me standing on that balcony alone


    in the dead of night.


    Things were looking so good for me professionally but my personal life wasplete shit and I didn’t


    know who to me but myself. I needed to do something fast if I wanted to save this marriage.
