Uncertainty stirred your insides as you stepped onto the cobblestone pavement leading up to the secluded restaurant that you were due to meet Daisuke to discuss the future of your business marriage. It seemed so silly to think that this was the norm for people like you— well, like them. You couldn't bring yourself to associate with such behaviors, despite your birthright experience as the child of a wealthy, business-driven family.

This wasn't something you wanted, you've always known it ever since you watched your mother suffer in silence, always just grinning and bearing it as she slowly lost herself in her own loveless marriage... all for the sake of duty to her family and her husband. You had never thought to ask her how she felt about it, though she'd most likely fabricate her truth into something that sounded pretty on paper— like a fairytale of love and riches unfathomable.

When had you become so weak? In a moment of vulnerability you succumbed yourself to your worst nightmare, and now your happiness hangs loosely in the balance of a wretched life filled with misery as you mourn the life you could've had with the man you truly wanted to be with.


Although,


You did have a secret weapon up your sleeve.


It was something that was yours and yours alone— a secret that had never once graced your lips the moment you had received the information; a bitter sweet notion that could be something entirely good or entirely bad, depending on the circumstances. Luckily for you in this instance, it would no doubt come in handy.
