Not a hug, not a kiss, not even a tender caress, like he used to do before. I stared at him silently as he walked out of the room. I understood the wedding had worn everyone out \u2014 guests, family, the endless rituals \u2014 but still, it was our first night married. We had been together for three years, we had overcome so many trials to be together.<\/p>\n<p>At ten o\u2019clock at night I thought I would be back in a few minutes. But the clock struck eleven, then eleven-thirty, and he still didn\u2019t appear. Anxiety is starting to get over me. I opened the door carefully, without turning on the light. In the hallway a yellow light was leaking from Elena\u2019s room, my mother-in-law.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/readmore.cx\/?p=12385\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7889\" src=\"https:\/\/readmore.cx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_7148-300x75.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"75\" srcset=\"https:\/\/readmore.cx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_7148-300x75.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/readmore.cx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_7148-768x191.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/readmore.cx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_7148.jpeg 905w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"pvc_stats_12384\" class=\"pvc_stats total_only  \" data-element-id=\"12384\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/readmore.cx\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On my first wedding night, my husband told me, \u201cI\u2019m tired\u201d and didn\u2019t sleep with me.
