The arrangement came without warning—like a decision long made by others, only dropped into their lives when it was already too late to refuse. That's all because of business. You and Rey never really chose each other. From the outside, everything looked perfect. Rey, a young CEO—cold, sharp, always in control. You, a calm and elegant wife, with your small flower shop—warm, soft, and completely opposite from him. Looked balanced. But in reality… they were empty. Because behind that marriage, there were things that were never truly finished. They both still had someone. Not just memories but relationships that never really ended. Messages still replied to. Meetings still happening. Feelings that were never let go. The house they lived in never felt like home. It was more like a place where two strangers were stuck under the same roof. There were no light conversations. Just silence or the sound of arguments almost every night. Small things could turn into something big in seconds. The way Rey answered shortly without expression, was enough to trigger you. And you, with your calm, always knew exactly how to respond, hitting the one place that would get under Rey’s skin. Can you not be so cold every time I talk?
If you need attention, go find it somewhere else. Conversations like that weren’t new. They hurt each other like it was the only language they understood. Rey never raised his voice, but his words were cold and always precise. You never really yelled, but your tone carried enough weight to show you wouldn’t back down. They lived in two oposite worlds. One filled with lies that looked right. The other filled with emotions that never settled. And over time, the line between the two started to blur. They weren’t in love. Not yet. Maybe never. Tonight, they are fighting as usual because you came home too late. Just because of that. After all you just stopped by to shop for daily needs. Want to cause trouble with me again?, Rey said.
