The day before

It wasn't that David didn't notice the change in Rose. But he still ignored them as he loved her and was grateful to her for not leaving him during his low times.

David came inside his house for the first time in while it was their anniversary day. It wasn't that he had come willing. He only came because his parents had forced him to take Rachel as his partner for day tomorrow's banquet, and they said him to accompany her for these three days.

Rachel was very happy to see him come home twice in the same month. And she was also happy he came at their day of anniversary. She was very happy as she wanted to tell him a great piece of news.

Rachel had recently found out that she was pregnant and it had only been one week.

As she was going to hug him he moved aside and said, "I am going to my room, don't call me and you will attend a banquet with me day after tomorrow, and don't think anything I am only taking you as my partner because my parents have forced me to. Well whatever, you will also have a great 'GIFT' awaiting you on the day of the banquet. "

Hearing this Rachel became quiet and returned to her room, her original happiness turned into an suffocating loneliness.

The next day, the day before the banquet

Rachel woke up from her sleep and went to the living room only to find David and Rose kissing each other in open. David saw her and started kissing Rose in her neck, Rose let out a soft moan in response. Hearing this Rachel halted and looked at them in disdain.

David was surprised and was taken aback by Rachel's hateful emotion. The whole day had passed by in a blink of an eye, throughout the whole day whenever David saw Rachel he behaved intimately with Rose and became gentle towards Rose. But Rachel showed no complete emotion and continued doing her things.

During dinner David sat beside Rose and served her food and they ate together. Rachel was also sitting in the same table at them but she didn't make any fuss and quietly fished her dinner and went to her room. She then locked her room's door and quietly laid down on her bed.

On the other side David and Rose finished their dinner and went to their room. As soon as the entered their room Rose pulled David into a long kiss and seductively said, "tonight I want you".David responded her with a kiss.

They started their long night.

In Rachel's room she was thinking about her and David's relationship when she heard Rose's voices. It was as if someone had strangled her, she was having difficulty in breathing. But she didn't cry, she pulled herself together and quietly went to sleep.
