142 Canst sleep without you in my arms (1/2)
Gabriel was in the villa. It's early in the morning and it was sad to sleep and wake up without his wife in his arms. It's not the first time but he can't just sleep without her. He didn't know how. He was worried to the bones and it would only stop when he sees her.
He drank another glass of wine. Though it was morning and his wife would probably hate it when he do that. He wanted to call one of his people to follow her but she warn him not to. He didn't even know where she went and he's so worried. It's been more than twenty four hours and he has no news about where she is.
Checking his phone again, he went back inside their room. He put down the wine and sat down on the bed. Then he lay down trying to sleep and since he had a light sleep, he woke up in three hours and found himself going to the bathroom to have a bath and to get ready to work.
On his way to work, he keeps checking his phone. Then he saw that it was Saturday. He exhales and look at himself. He's not himself anymore because of his troublemaker wife. He changed his clothes and just lay down on the bed and hug her pillow. It smell nice and it was comforting.
Then suddenly, his phone rings and he look at it immediately and answer it.
”Sabrina?”
”Hey, Hubby. We are on our way to France… something big happened. But I am fine.”
”You better be.” He warn her. ”Come home quickly.”
”I'll be home in seven days. I need to make a few arrangements. Catriona have a billion on top of her head.”
”I can manage to arrange people to protect her.” He said. ”You know that I can. Just come home, please.” He begs.
”Gabriel, this isn't simple. How about the laboratory? I want to see progress. Probably to kill time as well. You can also go to your friends and do whatnots just don't fck anyone.”
”You know that I don't like it.” He wean. ”Baby, come home quickly. Finish it. I don't like it when you leave like that.”
”I'm sorry.”
”Don't be sorry. I'll be in France let's meet up.”
”No. Gabby, don't come here.” She warns. ”I am okay. Just don't come here. I'll be there quickly as soon as I am done with this.”
”What happened to Catriona?” He asked curiously.
”I'll tell you when I get home.”

Tony notice that Veronica has been quiet. She hasn't taken a bath yet and she's standing on the door of the balcony. Thinking deep with her phone in her hand. He has finish cooking and he haven't heard from her. He wrapped his arms from her back and kisses her neck lightly.
”What's wrong?”
”Nothing.” She answer.
”Then let's eat.” He knows that something is wrong but he didn't want to ask further.
She ate a little and if he didn't tell her to eat more, she wouldn't. She's thinking so deep and she look worried. He scoop her face and check if she has a fever.
”Tell me, what's wrong?” She didn't respond. He bath her after their lunch and still, she wasn't in her right mind. She stays on the bed, wearing his shirt and still holding her phone.
He notice it all. So maybe to divert her attention, he start working on kissing her. Maybe seducing her would make all of her worry disappear. He caress her face and kisses it lightly.
”Baby…” he murmurs as he pull her phone and put it away. ”What's the matter?” She only look up at him. ”Come on, I'm worried.”
”It's nothing.”
”You always say that.” He pull her shirt up and she willingly let him take it off. ”I'll make love to you… maybe it will help you for a while.”
”Will you?” She pushes him down and straddle him. He fixed his eyes on her and brushes her hair back. She kiss him and he kiss her back but it ends there. She lay over him and hug him. His woman needs comfort than sex so he wrapped his arms around her and keep kissing her head.
