" You never listen "

Soundtrack : Ice Cream by Ciara Newell.

" You were not like this when i first knew you " Priscilla said after the long silence.

" You never listen ..anymore ", she continued as Steve step into the toilet, slamming the door behind him.

Steve and Priscilla were 4 days away from their 9 year's wedding anniversary. The first 2 years were sweet. The 3rd were even better, when Little Sara joined the family. After a deep discussion, Priscilla decided to quit her job and fully concentrate her time on being a full-time mother and a full-time housewife. Slowly Steve starting to burdened by the weight of responsibility.

After a few months, Steve and Priscilla started to argue. They argued every time Steve came home late. They argued when Steve drank. They argue when the credit card bills came. From here, romance were all gone. It was only responsibility. Doing your part right.

Steve knew her wife were right. They never talked anymore. The only time they were not in silence when they were facing each other, is when they were shouting at each other. But still, he couldn't figure out why they were not as happy as they used to.

I watched a play with a friend last week. The play were called " Crazy Little Thing Called Love ". One particular part of the play were so.. true, if i could use a word to describe it. It's an argument between a marriage couple in a bedroom. My friend were crying and according to her, it happens a lot, even to her own family.

A friend of mine used to tell me that it's nothing wrong to argue once in a while as long as it's a healthy argument. Another friend of mine told me that a relationship can never last long if t

there is no argument at all. If argument always involves two person shouting at each other, then what help does it contribute ? When a marriage couple starts to shout at each other, the only person that will be listening is their son/daughter. And it creates a very negative thinking in them as they grow.

If you love her/him, taking a step back and listen to him/her isn't a hard thing to do. Communicating isn't that difficult of a thing to do.
