First message
When Kenneth came home, Louise immediately reached into the grocery bag.
“Where are the cakes?” she asked, disappointed.
“I… bumped into a woman at the store and dropped half the groceries. Sorry. Want me to go back?” he asked with a smile, kissing her forehead.
At the mention of another woman, Louise narrowed her eyes.
“You bumped into her so hard you forgot about me?”
Kenneth sighed.
“Lou, there are a lot of women in the world. I’m inevitably going to bump into some of them. Stop. I’ll just order delivery.”
She exhaled.
“No, it’s fine. I’ll go myself,” she said, putting on her shoes and heading to the store.
