The morning light streamed through our bedroom windows as I buttoned up my blouse, watching Ethan knot his tie in the mirror. Even after five years of marriage, the sight of him still made my heart flutter.
“Happy anniversary, babe!” I said, wrapping my arms around his waist from behind. “I can’t believe it’s been five years already.”
He patted my hand absently. “Time flies when you’re building an empire.”
I pressed my cheek against his back. “I was thinking we could close the office early today. Celebrate properly in the evening, you know!”
“Can’t,” he said, checking his watch. “Big client coming in. Maybe this weekend?”
