A long time seemed to have passed, but it also seemed to have happened in the blink of an eye.
Zena held the quilt and looked at Xavier, who was vomiting with his upper body naked and his back hunched on the edge of the bed. She couldn't laugh or even say a word.
"Ugh!"
Listening to him vomiting in pain, Zena didn't know how to describe her mood at this time.
She suddenly regretted what she had said just now. In that case, she would still have the confidence to love him.
However, deep in her heart, she was somewhat glad that she had said that she wanted to have sex with him again, although the result let her down.
After a while, Xavier no longer felt disgusted and uncomfortable, and he stopped vomiting. However, he did not turn around for a long time.
He remained in the position of lying on the edge of the bed and staring at the carpet in front of him with self- mockery. The pleasant surprise he had last night had completely disappeared, and all he had was tiredness and helplessness in heart.
Still, he couldn't make it...
Therefore, did it mean that he couldn't have the future and the warm home that he had been looking forward to for a long time?
After a few minutes, Xavier wiped his mouth with a tissue. Then he turned around, pulled over a corner of the quilt, and covered himself.
"Zena..." His voice was filled with endless sadness and powerlessness, "Now, have you changed your mind?"
Zena pursed her lips and didn't know what to say for a while.
She grabbed the clothes on the head of the bed, put them on hurriedly, and then arranged her messy hair. After she calmed down, she said, "Xavier, you... must be too tired today, so you're like this. You could do it yesterday, couldn't you?"
Xavier closed his eyes and put on his clothes, "Zena, don't make excuses for me. Both of us... know whether I've really got better or not."
Yesterday, it was probably because he was stimulated by those hurtful words that he could have sex with her. Otherwise, he wouldn't be like this today.
"I..." Zena opened her mouth, but she couldn't say a word to refute him.
"So, Zena..." He smiled coldly, "What do you think now? Do you want to change the date or... break off the engagement?"
If it weren't for what had happened just now, he might think that changing the date of the wedding would be good for both of them. If they could get along for more days and make sure that he had really got better, everything would be perfect.
Well, he was a perfectionist, but... he wasn't perfect.
The fact that he couldn't make love like a normal man was the most terrible turkey in his life.
Hearing this, Zena's heart skipped a beat. She opened her mouth and wanted to comfort him, but her mind was in a mess and she could not say anything, "I..."
What should she say? His words were not unreasonable. Should she keep waiting for him? Then who should be responsible for her unhappiness in the rest of her life?
Should she leave him? Should she give up her love for him which had last for more than ten years? She was not willing to do so.
She was so hesitant. Who could give her an answer?
Looking at Zena's actions and expression, Xavier understood what she meant, and he felt so pain in his heart. All the pain and helplessness in his heart was gnawing away his confidence and pride.
However, he could not blame her. The one who should be blamed was himself.
"Zena..."
"Hmm?" Zena responded to her slowly.
