Defending Yourself

Anya buried her tiny body in Aiden's arms. The man tightened his embrace and smelled a faint scent from his wife's body. His heart felt peaceful. He's home ...

"Do you miss me?" His warm breath tickled Anya's ears, but the woman felt comfortable.

She nodded her head while still burying her face in Aiden's chest. Then she looked up and looked at Aiden with teary eyes, "I'm causing trouble again." She said weakly.

"Hmm..." 

When Aiden walked in, he heard Ben screaming, saying that he found the missing recipe in Anya's bag and asked someone to call the police immediately.

"Aiden, I didn't steal it. I don't know why the recipe was in my bag." Anya hurriedly explained.

"I know." Aiden's voice sounded calm, making Anya feel his calm too. She didn't panic anymore, as long as Aiden was with her. 

"Do you believe in me?" Anya's eyes were sparkling, emitting a bright light.
