“Well, I don’t know… I had a big argument with Deborah this morning and… I don’t know… I don’t know why it happened, but I feel bad because we’ve never fought before.” 

“Well, son, every couple has disagreements in their married life,” his father said, taking a sip of his drink. What’s important is how you resolve that conflict without making the problem bigger.” 

“Hm…” Jayden sighed and took a big gulp of his drink. 

“Can I ask what the argument was about?” 

“It was about work because today she asked me to stay with her… but I had to come in, and when she kept insisting, I decided to call you to say I wouldn’t be coming in. Then suddenly, she got mad and pushed me out of the house, telling me to leave because it was obvious I cared more about work than her. 

“Ah… so that’s what happened,” Eric said with a knowing smile, recalling a similar experience with his own wife. He had a pretty good idea of what was going on. “In that case, son, don’t worry, this isn’t anything 

serious.” 

“How can you be so sure?” 

“Because I think I know how this will end, and all I can tell you is that women are such beautiful and mysterious creatures that sometimes they expect us to be mind readers. They say things half–heartedly, assuming we know what they want, and when we don’t, they get upset.” 

“What? But… that doesn’t make any sense,” Jayden replied, confused. “And Debbie isn’t like that.” 

“You’ll see I’m right eventually, son. So, for now, just focus on your work, and when you get home, you’ll find that things will have sorted themselves out.” 

Jayden watched as his father stood up to continue supervising the workers, leaving him deep in thought. but he decided to follow his advice and focus on his work. 

By the afternoon, everyone was getting ready to go home and rest. 

As he walked to his car, Jayden thought about stopping by the nearby bakery to buy some cream and strawberry pastries and also picking up two liters of mint chocolate chip ice cream–his beloved’s most frequent cravings. 

But just as he was approaching his car, he saw Deborah standing there waiting for him, holding a bouquet of carnations and a large heart–shaped helium balloon that said, “Forgive me?” 

“Deborah?” he quickly approached to hug her, but she extended her hands to offer him the flowers and the balloon, avoiding the contact. 

“Jayden, L… please accept this as an apology.” 

Jayden blushed a little and, without saying anything, took the gifts, noticing that she wanted to keep talking. 

“I… um… you see… I’m sorry about what happened this morning. It’s just that I wanted… well, I didn’t really want you to go to work… but I know you’re the one in charge, and um… well… I…” Deborah was still too nervous to organize her thoughts, but then she felt him pull her close to kiss her on the lips.

“It’s okay, my love. I’m not mad. I’m just confused because this is the first time we’ve ever fought.”

“I’m sorry… it’s just… I didn’t even know what I wanted, she said, starting to cry. 

‘Don’t cry. Just tell me, what did you want?” 

“Um… that…” She blushed and tried to hide her face in his chest. “I wanted to…” she mumbled the last part too softly to be heard. 

“What?”
