YANK!
Aphrodite put a cup of coffee on the table now occupied by Francisco. The man looked up at Aphrodite who had just arrived at her study.
"I make coffee so you're strong to do all your work" said Aphrodite.
"Well, thank you. You're really considerate." Francisco grabbed the cup of coffee and sipped it slowly. "It tastes good, the sweetness is fitting. How do you know my taste when I never asked you to make coffee?"
"Do you really like it? I made the coffee according to what I used to make when I was working and working late."
"It looks like we are destined to be together, the proof is that we have the same taste." Francisco put the cup in his hand back on the table.
"Haha. Never mind, it's better now that you focus on working so you can finish quickly and you can rest."
"Then you rest first. Don't wait for me."
"No. I'll keep you here until all your work is done."
"Later you get sick."
"No, just relax."
"Alright if you insist, I will allow you to accompany me to work."
"Thank you."
Aphrodite turned around, walked over to the sofa. Sit while leaning on his back.

Jordan closed the door of his room, stepped over to his bed. Throwing his bag towards the sofa along with a suit attached to his body then lay down for a moment on his bed. His head looked up at the ceiling of his room which was now illuminated by the light of a lamp that was so bright, shining beautifully adorned the entire room.
Tiredness wrestled with his body, and his body was now filled with sweat that poured from his forehead to his body.
"Today my mind has really gone awry" he murmured slowly as he looked at the ceiling of his room. The next second Jordan woke up from his place, sat for a moment on the bed before finally deciding to take a shower and change clothes so that after that he could rest and gather all his energy to return to work tomorrow.
...*...
The clock kept ticking on the wall, not a word could be heard filling the room. There was only the sound of a computer keyboard and the sound of a slow mutter from Francisco who was busy with all the office work he took home. Occasionally there was a sound of paper back and forth along with him who double-checked the contents of the file in his hand.
The clock had shown ten o'clock over twenty minutes, already hours Francisco sat in front of his computer on, doing all his office work.
Francisco rubbed his eyes slowly, his eyes felt tired from staring too long at his computer screen. For a moment he turned his eyes to something else. He glanced at the clock hanging on the wall and found it was already night.
"It turns out that last night, I was unconscious" murmured Francisco quietly. His essence turned to Aphrodite who was now lying on the sofa. "Dite?" Call him but there was no response or answer from the woman who is now his wife.
"Gosh, I deserve to call you not to answer. It turns out you're sleeping." Fransisco smiled looking at the calm face of Aphrodite.
"You seem so exhausted." Fransisco memonolog, he moved carrying the body Aphrodite took him to his bedroom and lay his body on the bed and did not forget to cover his body with a blanket there to dispel the cold air of the night.
"Sleep well, and may you have a good dream." Francisco landed a kiss on his forehead.
Soon he left and returned to his study, only a few other things left and his work was done. After that he can sleep and gather all his energy to return to work tomorrow.
Arriving at his study, Francisco grabbed his cup and took it to the kitchen and replaced it with a glass that he then filled with water. After that, he just returned to work and completed his office duties.
...*...
Time passed, a sudden thirst coming down his throat made Aphrodite wake up from her sleep.
Aphrodite opened her eyes, and she was shocked when she suddenly found herself in her room and not in Francisco anymore.
"Geez, why am I here? I remember I was still in Frans' study and accompanying him to work, but why am I suddenly here?" Aphrodite rolled her eyes around. Francisco was not beside him.
"Frans is still working, huh?" Aphrodite's Mumbles. He stared at the clock on the wall which now shows at two in the morning.
"It's so late, is Frans still working? I have to check it out." Aphrodite came out of her room, stepped into the Francisco study to check on her condition. But his steps stopped once more thirst caught his attention.
"I think I'd better have a drink after that check Frans."
Aphrodite went to the kitchen to get a drink before going to the Francisco study to check on her husband.
Aphrodite placed the glass in her hand onto the table. The next instant he stepped into the Francisco study to check it out.
"French?" He called slowly while pushing the door inward, but as soon as the door opened and he stood in the doorway. Aphrodite found Francisco, now sitting in his chair in a deep sleep, perched on his desk with an arm in place of a pillow.
"I thought he was still awake, but he fell asleep here."
Aphrodite walked over to Francisco, looking at her handsome face that looked so calm. Aphrodite shook Fransisco's shoulder gently trying to wake him up and asked him to move to sleep in the room.
"Frans.." he called back to shake Francisco's shoulder but the man was still sound asleep, not even disturbed by Aphrodite's voice at all.
"You must be very tired because you just got in there's a lot of work you have to take care of." Aphrodite muttered softly.
"I can't possibly move you into a room like you moved me." Aphrodite smiled faintly. He then went out for a while, took a blanket in his room to cover Francisco. Lower the AC temperature slightly so that Francisco is more comfortable. After that Aphrodite returned to her room, not wanting to disturb Francisco's slumber.
He decided to go to bed so that tomorrow he could wake up early and return to his activities, preparing all the needs of Francisco before leaving for work tomorrow morning.
"I have to sleep and recover all my energy for tomorrow. I had to get up early so Frans wouldn't be late for work" he muttered softly, pulling a blanket over his body and trying to sleep.
