When Love Comes Late

It was going to be a two-hour flight.

ALL the other employees who were coming along chatted to kill time.

The female colleague who was seated next to Stella suddenly nudged her and asked curiously, “I heard that you are married.

Since you are a pretty lady, is your husband very handsome?”

Stella was lost for words.

She hadn’t met Maverick before, so she had no idea what he looked like.

The colleague didn’t notice Stella’s embarrassment.

She just leaned in close and asked, “Don’t be so secretive.

You have pictures of your husband on your phone, don’t you? Can I see them?”

Stella shifted in her seat and smiled awkwardly.

“My husband is not a fan of taking pictures, so…”

“Wow, that’s so cool.

Stella’s toothed smile widened.

Matthew was too preoccupied to hear their discussion.

His brows were furrowed and his eyes were tightly shut.

Beads of sweat were all over his forehead even though the air- conditioning was on.

He had begun to feel dizzy from the moment he boarded the flight.

Matthew was claustrophobic.

He was this way because as a child, his mother tried to shield him away from getting lost or joining bad gangs.

She always Locked him up at home whenever she went to work.

Their home at the time was just a rented poorly ventilated room.

The air in there was suffocating.

Being in a confined space alone for so long did a number on him.

Nightmares and panic attacks were a thing for him at the time.

He also had negative thoughts that scared the shit out of him.

Although he was now an adult and he could ride the elevator just fine, he still couldn’t cope with being in an enclosed place for a long time.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Boarding flights were a no-no for him.

He only took them if he had no other choice.
