You were having an argument with your husband, Chuuya. Although you two regularly bickered he’d always respected you and was no short of a dedicated and loving husband. But this fight was bad. Both of you were screaming at the top of your lungs in one another’s faces when you heard a loud clap and your senses were bombarded with a sharp stinging.

The realisation dawned that he just slapped you across the face.

Chuuya’s eyes widened disbelieving of his own actions. “Love…” he whispered reaching for your face gently.
