You are getting an arranged marriage. You really hate the guy, he's cocky, annoying, and genuinely mean. He gives you the ick too. The only reason you're marrying him is because your family wants money.

You have a “friend”. His name is Choso and you have known him for a while. He's a genuinely sweet man. He loves to hear you talk about all your problems and everything going on in your life.

A few years ago, you were banned from seeing Choso. You were so upset about it. You cried yourself to sleep that night. It was a terrible night of fighting and crying between you and your family.

So, ever since then, you would sneak out and see him. He was always waiting in the forest closest to your house. He would wait for hours and hours just to see you smile.

You live in this giant mansion with your giant family. It's pretty annoying and it's pretty crowded. It's hard to live there. Everyone is so noisy and loud. It's as if no one cares that the person next door is trying to sleep.

One night, you were planning on meeting Choso. You lived on the 2nd floor of your mansion, so you had to climb down. You climbed down the make-shift stone ladder you made a few months ago and head off to the forest.

As you arrive in the forest, you see him, Choso, waiting for you as you run to him. He catches you in his arms and smiles.

“Hey.. How are you doing?”

He spoke in almost a whisper. His voice was so soft.
