He Chose a Woman Who Resembled His Late Mother Over Me

"Baby, why are you so small?"

It was after dinner when I was curling up against Louis’s arms and he rested his chin in the crook of my neck and suddenly murmured.

But his words frozed me.

I was 5’3” and he was 6’2”. We had been together for six years, so how could he suddenly be surprised by my size?

I forced a tease, "Really? After six years, you’re only just noticing I’m small?"

Realizing he had slipped, Louis quickly masked it as if nothing had happened. He scooped me up, pressed me against the wall and kissed me hard.
