3/3 Charlotte , he began , his tone casual yet pointed , our wedding anniversary is coming up , isnt it ? What gift do you want ? Charlotte stared at him , stunned .
He remembered ? she thought incredulously .
Every year for the five years weve been married , Ive meticulously planned our anniversaries , hoping for some reaction from him .
But all I ever got was his cold disregard .

In the second year , he was away on a business trip .
In the third year , he got drunk at a social event and went straight to bed when he came home .
