"Calling will give you the same result and it will save you your precious time." Bette said.

"Well.. not really." I said as I moved closer to her desk. "I’m sorry." I finally said as I took a deep breath.

"I don’t know why I acted that way." I said and Bette just looked at me obviously not satisfied with what I have just said.

"Well.. I think I know why I acted that way." I said as I tried to exlain to my girlfriend my actions last night. "When you told me that my mother may know about us I initially thought that you are imagining things but then you started to give me proofs as to why you think that way and I sort of got scared," I paused. "because as you continued mentioning evidences the more I believe that, yes.. She might already know about us. And I got scared." I said as I made my way towards her.

"Remember the fight we just had a few months ago that led us to decide to live together?" I asked Bette not really waiting for her answer. "We said that we don’t want to end another day without hugging, kissing or saying ‘I love you’." I paused again as I reached for her hand. "Last night we didn’t hug or kiss each other goodnight. I didn’t even said I love you before I go to sleep.. And this morning when I called you I said I love you but you didn’t answered me back." I said as I saw Bette’s face beginning to frown again.

"Baby.. don’t worry I am not blaming you.. It’s my fault that you haven’t got the chance to kiss me goodnight since I turned my back on you. And it’s not your fault that you can’t say you love me because you are still obviously mad but–" I paused again as I took her face to make sure she looks at me. "baby.. I don’t want to waste another minute not being able to kiss you and hug you." I said as I inched closer so that our lips is almost touching. "I’m sorry.." I said as I looked at her in the eyes. "I love you.. Please tell me you love me too." I said as a tear escaped my eyes.

"I love you.. Please tell me you love me too." Tina said as if pleading for me to say the words that I wanted to tell her as soon as I ended our call earlier.

But instead of saying the words I let my actions speak what I am feeling. I pulled her face closer to mine and I kissed her softly on the lips. As soon as I felt her lips on mine I felt her her tears coming down from her cheeks.

"Oh my god.. The woman I love is breaking down in front of me." I thought to myself as I pulled away from our kiss. I wiped away the tears that are still falling from her eyes.

"Shhh.. Baby.." I said as I cupped her face to look at me. "I love you.." I said as she smiled and she moved her head towards me and she started to kiss me again.

"Just her kiss makes me cry.." I thought to myself as I felt my eyes starting to tear up too.

"It breaks my heart to see you crying.." I said as I pulled away from the kiss. "Stop crying baby.. I’m not mad anymore."

Tina wiped the last of her tears and she began to stand up.

"I have something for you." Tina said as she grabbed something from outside my office. "Here these are for you." Tina said holding a bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolates.

"I am beginning to get used to you giving me these box of chocolates and flowers." I said as I read the card attached to the flowers.

"I’m sorry." Was the only thing that was written on it.
