Both of them were lying in bed, but sleep wouldn't come to either of them.

They both faked being asleep.

Laura was breathing heavily.

She was actually waiting for Morrison to explain.

"Did Forrest say something that upset you?" Laura asked.

Morrison closed his eyes.

“Laura, stop asking. This is all on me..." Laura said.

Laura turned to face him. "You don't want me to ask? Then, are we still together?"

Morrison looked confused. "What do you mean?"

"There's clearly an issue. If you're not willing to address it, I'L take that as a sign you no longer want to be with me," Laura stated sharply.

Such moments were crucial for all couples.

It was the same whenever they argued.

Morrison was taken aback.

"I... Seeing you, I couldn't help but picture you with Forrest. The jealousy and anger overwhelm me. I can't bear the thought of you with another man... But deep down, I know I'm new to your Life. How can I judge your past? But it just feels terrible, really terrible..."

The more he spoke, the lower his voice dropped, eventually turning hoarse.

“Laura, I'm sorry. It won't happen again."

His tone was resolute.

Laura stared at him, blank for a moment, then confusion clouded her eyes.

It should have been obvious. Instead...

She remained silent for a moment.
