Carlos abruptly put the chopsticks down and frowned.
“What’s the matter?” she asked.
“I’ve lost my appetite.” He wiped his mouth with a tissue.
“You didn’t like it?” she asked. ‘That couldn’t be the reason because my cooking is much better than before, ‘ she thought.

“Instead of enjoying the moment with me, my wife has been thinking about another man all this time. How can I enjoy the food? Take it to Dixon.”
Debbie rolled her eyes at him.
“Humph!” She wasn’t going to humor his mood.
“Fine. As it happens, Dixon doesn’t seem to have eaten. Since you haven’t touched these dishes yet, I’ll take them to him. You didn’t seem to Like them, anyway.”
Carlos was hurt. ‘I never said I didn’t like it.’ Debbie’s career was booming. Sometimes, she was even busier than Carlos. He barely saw her at all. And it had been too long since she Last cooked for him. Knowing that she was coming to see him, and bringing Lunch, he dropped everything, putting off meetings and appointments, and was waiting for her in his office.
He heard noises outside, so he rushed to the door to whip it open. She was hugging someone else. His heart sank.
Although Debbie had said she was going to take the food to Dixon, she was sitting down. Carlos got up from his chair and sat beside her.
Stroking her hair, he said, “Be a good girl. Don’t get too close to that guy, or I’m moving him out of the city.”
Debbie sensed his jealousy.

“So when are you going to marry the man you Love?” Carlos couldn’t wait anymore. If she turned him down again, he would do it his own way. One way or another, he’d get her to the Civil Affairs Bureau to sign that license.
Again, she said softly, “I need more time.”
Carlos dropped it and continued to eat.
Debbie smiled and opened the Latest issue of her favorite magazine. She flipped through it, looking for the comics liberally sprinkled throughout its pages.
Carlos devoured his lunch and brushed his teeth in the Lounge.
When he sat down on the couch again, he dragged Debbie over and sat her on his lap.
“Don’t I get a reward?” he asked.
“What for?”
