Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back!

So, she started to loosen up.
Sometimes, she'd sit cross-legged; other times, she'd lie flat on her stomach; occasionally, one leg would be up on the couch while the upper half of her body sprawled across the carpet; and at times, she'd just start stretching into yoga poses while sitting.
Phillip's gaze would occasionally catch her in these odd shapes, always lingering for a few seconds before he silently looked away.
One night, deep into editing photos, her stomach rumbled with hunger. She thought of whipping up some food for a midnight snack, wandering the kitchen like a ghost, only to discover that Phillip didn't stock any of that stuff.
As she rummaged around, the lights flicked on, revealing Phillip in his navy pajamas, leaning against the wall, "What are you up to?"
"Just hungry, thought I'd make some pasta."

Phillip paused, "Too hot?"
"You really can't cook," Tina said, lifting her face, "They are undercooked."
No excuse from Phillip.
In the end, they had to wake the maid to cook some food.
This revelation of Phillip's culinary shortcomings somehow made Tina feel a bit closer to him.
Occasionally, she would ask Phillip via text to bring her some snacks, to which his replies were usually concise, a simple "Okay."
Then, over something trivial she could no longer remember, they found themselves chatting more than usual one day, ending with Phillip wishing her a good

It was the first time their conversation had spanned more than two screens. One weekend, Phillip invited her to a gathering with his friends.
"They're old friends of mine. You'll probably see them around, so might as well meet them now."
Understanding the importance of socializing post-marriage, Tina eagerly agreed, even buying a new dress for the occasion.
A rust-red cocktail dress that
highlighted her figure, curls
cascading over her shoulders. She steadied herself against the wall as she slipped into black strappy heels, looking up, her face radiant. S
She hadn't bothered with makeup when they first met. But meeting his friends warranted full glam.
Phillip's gaze lifted from her feet, "Thought you didn't like heels?"
"Never said that," Tina retorted, slinging her purse over her shoulder, "Let's go!"
