"Why are you mad at me after we met your friend?" Michael asked then touched Sarah's arm so Sarah would look at him.

However, Sarah immediately moved her arm, as if to get rid of Michael's hand.

"I told you it was nothing!" Sarah finally turned to look at Michael, unconsciously raising her voice in annoyance. By now she was quite stressed and worried about what would happen on Monday, but Michael kept on bothering her.

"Then why are you behaving like this?" asked Michael who was also unknowingly raising his temper, slightly provoked by Sarah's actions.

It seemed like Michael immediately noticed that and hastily adjusted his facial expression.

"I mean, if something's bothering you or I'm doing something wrong, you can just say it, don't give me the cold shoulder like this," Michael continued, calmer this time.

"Just run the car," Sarah said with a lazy look then turned back to the window beside her.

Seeing his wife's attitude, Michael gritted his teeth, suppressing his emotions. What actually happened to Sarah that made her act like this?

Suddenly, something crossed his mind.

"Are you mad at me because I introduced myself as your husband?" asked Michael who seemed to have realized what had happened.

Seems like what Michael said was quite right on target as Sarah's body reacted slightly. She then immediately turned around and looked at Michael.

"I guess I was right. Wow… you're acting like this because of that?" asked Michael looking incredulous.

Sarah bit her lower lip, trying to keep quiet, it was true that she was currently acting like this because Michael introduced himself as her husband.

"Then… What am I? Your cousin? I knew you would say that I was your cousin!" Michael said coldly, staring intently at Sarah.

Even though he cut Sarah off, Michael could hear the word cou coming out of Sarah's lips, which stands for cousin.

Sarah fell silent, what Michael said was once again on point.

Her brain had been thinking hard about how she should introduce Michael to her co-worker.

If she said friends, how can friends between men and women shop with trolleys? All she could think of were cousins.

Come to think of it, she could probably be witty and tell that Michael was her boyfriend, Michael might be a little surprised, but she could jokingly say he was her boyfriend for the rest of life.

However, she panicked earlier and couldn't think calmly.

"It's not like that..." Sarah said feeling a little guilty.

"Then why? Did I embarrass you so you don't want to acknowledge me as your husband?" asked Michael who had been provoked by emotion and unconsciously acted aggressively.

Hearing Michael's tone of voice, which seemed to be sarcastic, made Sarah become emotional too.

"You know I'm not like that! Since when was I embarrassed to be seen with you?" Sarah asked back, raising her voice.

"After all, she already introduced herself as my co-worker! Why did you introduce yourself as my husband even after I told you what could happen?!" continued Sarah who finally let out what was on her mind.

Right now Sarah was really worried, even though what she was doing was approved by Michael's parents, still what she was doing was wrong.

Although she didn't know if there was a law that could punish her, surely people would talk about her again and might look at him with disdain.

Sarah didn't want to feel what she felt when she was in school, being looked down upon and talked about behind her back just because she was an orphan.

Michael was silent when he heard Sarah's words.

Was he really wrong this time? He just didn't want Sarah to introduce him as her cousin.

He said the right thing, but it looks like he was wrong again.

"Just run the car!" said Sarah when Michael just kept quiet and then immediately looked back at the window, his face still looking a little annoyed.

"Wifey… I…"

"For God's sake, Michael! Just run this damn car, or I'm out!" Sarah snapped back at Michael in annoyance.

Right now she wanted to be alone and think about what she should do with her coworker, but Michael kept pestering her.

Michael was a little surprised, not expecting Sarah to snap at him.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself from getting angry, before finally grabbing the steering wheel and driving the car.

On the way to their apartment, the atmosphere in the car was very quiet, not like before. Sarah kept looking at the window, while Michael focused on looking ahead, they continued like that until they finally arrived at the apartment.

When they arrived at the apartment, Sarah still looked annoyed, but she still helped Michael carry their groceries into the kitchen and started organizing them.

"Wifey..." Michael called when they had finished. He couldn't stand the current situation anymore.

However, Sarah just kept quiet and immediately went to the second floor.

Michael sighed when he saw Sarah acting like that.

Was he really wrong this time?

Michael wondered.

No matter how Michael thought about it, he totally felt it was unfair to be treated like this by Sarah when what he said was a fact.

Michael sighed, then decided to follow Sarah to the second floor.

As soon as he got there, he saw Sarah was already asleep on the bed and pulled the blanket up until her head was out of sight.

"Wifey," Michael called softly and walked over to the bed. He then decided to sit on the side close to Sarah's feet.

"..."

"Are you that angry?" asked Michael again, not understanding why Sarah was like this.

He knew Sarah might get a reprimand or something from the hospital, but a month had passed since his accident, and at that time, Sarah had no other choice.

Michael sighed as Sarah remained silent.

"I'm sorry," Michael said, then immediately stood up and left the room. It seems that now his wife wants to need some time alone.

He felt it was a little unfair, but he decided to apologize, and hoped Sarah wouldn't give him the cold shoulder again.

When she felt the door was closed, Sarah immediately pushed the blanket over her head, then changed her position into a sitting position and sighed softly.

She knew she shouldn't have behaved like this with Michael, but she did feel annoyed that Michael had to tell her co-workers that he was her husband.

Sarah sighed again.

It seemed that this time she had acted a little childishly. She was upset, but she shouldn't have treated Michael like that.

"Ahh… I don't know anymore!" said Sarah then went back to sleep and pulled the blanket.

On the one hand, she wanted to go out and apologize to Michael, but on the other hand, she felt proud to do so.
