Chapter 756 - 756 Things Normal Couples Do



With great effort, he hauled his ass to the bathroom where he washed up. The cold water running down his body was enough to calm his head and by the time he came out of the bathroom, Marcel felt less overwhelmed by his problems.

Lying down on his bed, Marcel hugged the pillow that was in the position where Arianna should have been. Shit, he hated this distance between them. He missed her so much like the air he was breathing. Marcel missed pulling her warm body close to him at night. When things return to normal and he is back in his bed? At this rate, he would not be able to sleep tonight.

As if he conjured her or something, Marcel’s phone rang at that moment and he picked it up with lightning speed, his hope leaping in joy when he saw it was Arianna calling.

Marcel didn’t answer immediately else she begins to think that he was desperate for her calls. He cleared his throat and hesitated a bit before answering. Sadly, before he could press the answer button, the call ended and his face fell.

What the heck …?

He was flabbergasted. The call didn’t even last a minute. Did she not intend to call him or does she want him to call her instead? No, he was not going to call back.

Marcel intended to prove that Arianna missed him more than he missed her. So he ignored the missed call and waited for her call. It was quite unfortunate that his cell did not ring nor did it light up with a call. And when his phone did light up, it was a message from his network provider and that irritated the hell out of him that he blocked the message immediately.

He waited and waited all to no avail. Fine, he would put down his pride and call. However, Marcel withdrew his hand as soon as it touched the phone lying on his bed while battling with his mind.

.....

Arianna had sworn she would be the one to put in extra effort in their relationship, so why should he call her? He had to wait till she called back, right? However, the minutes went back and the tick-tacking sound from the wall clock in his room was enough to drive him crazy.

That is it.

She won!

He was the weak one in their relationship, so what?! He loved her so much.

And just like that, Marcel lost a battle Arianna was not even aware of. He called her.

Meanwhile, Arianna could not sleep that night. The argument with her mother kept playing continually in her mind and bothered her. It was at moments like this that he wished Marcel was by her side.

And speaking of Marcel, Arianna decided to call him. However, in the middle of the call, she realized how selfish her action was. What if he was busy with work? Knowing Marcel, he would give up everything just to speak with her. They talked earlier already and she didn’t want to bother him anymore. So she ended the call right away.

But to her relief, Marcel called back and her heart missed a call. Arianna picked up the phone without hesitation.

“Hello?” She said,

“Hello, Arianna? I saw your missed call” Marcel intentionally told her, waiting for an answer.

“Oh, that. I assumed that you were busy earlier and let you be or weren’t you?”

“Huh?” Marcel was stunned and here he was thinking that she was holding back on her feelings for him. Who knew she was being considerate?

“I mean, weren’t you busy when I called?”

“Of course, I was,” Marcel lied without blinking. Well, what was he supposed to tell her? That he had been anxiously waiting for her call like a fool?

Arianna sighed, “That means you’re still busy with your work, it has not been long since I called -”

“Of course not, I’m not!” Marcel said quickly when he sensed her beginning to change her mind about speaking with him.

“What?” Arianna was a tiny bit confused here. Was he or was he not busy?

“I mean,” He explained to her, “I was busy at first, but now I’m free,”

“Is that so? Good then. We’re free to talk.” Arianna’s voice sounded excited through the phone and Marcel was actually pleased she wanted to talk to him. It wasn’t until now that Marcel understood that communication was vital in a long-distance relationship.

Damn, how did his relationship get to this point? They were living in the same city and yet so far away from each other just like the moon and the sun revolves around the earth yet can never meet unless in the case of an eclipse…. Jesus Christ, what was he even talking about in the first place?

“What are you doing now?” Arianna asked, bringing back his attention, thankfully.

“Lying on my bed and waiting to drift away to dreamland. You?”

“What a coincidence,” Arianna chuckled, “I’m in my bed too, and waiting to sleep off. In that case, let’s sleep together then.”

Unfortunately, Marcel’s mind went down the dirty lane and although he caught himself at the last minute, his silence had given him away to Arianna.

She explained quickly, “I mean to say, let’s sleep off together, you know, at the same time. Neither is it possible to sleep with each other with the distance between us ....” Arianna trailed off.

Marcel snorted laughter, “I know what you mean, Arianna.”

“And yet you let me continue speaking like a fool?” Arianna shook her head with a sigh.

But Marcel told her, “You are not a fool, Arianna and I like hearing your voice. It’s comforting.”

At this part, Arianna melted from the inside. How did Marcel suddenly become so cute?

And just like that, the both of them ended up discussing frivolous things as normal couples do till midnight.
