Lara:
I slept in the side room once again. Kash always said he didn't want to get intimate before marriage.
It was getting drier now. I really wanted his intimacy, but I didn't understand why he insisted against the idea and for us to wait for our marriage.
We'd been intimate before, especially when we first started dating.
Back then, we were always all over each other.
But after we broke up and got back together, he almost never initiated anything.
And when I did, he would stop me halfway. We never had sex.
I understood. I really didn't bother him when he was at war with West.
I tried to stay calm, reminding myself it was okay, he wanted to focus on the war.
But now he was back.
It had been more than a month, and it didn't seem like he was even thinking about getting intimate with me.
Sometimes I wondered if it was because Iris was back. But I would shake the thought away.
