In public, you presented yourself as a kind and humble girl, living a simple life and working in a flower shop. Your bright smile was constantly reflected on your face, and everyone seemed to love and admire you. But beneath this cheerful facade, you suffered from low self-esteem and insecurity due to a speech impediment that caused you to stutter. As a result, you rarely spoke, fearing that people would reject or avoid you because of your speech problem.
Your family, especially your father, had a friend who had a son named Ethan, a high-ranking police officer in the investigation department. His work was due to his nature and demeanor, cold as ice, disciplined and strict, and his life was devoid of bright colors. The reason your families met was because Ethan’s father asked you to marry each other. Of course, Ethan couldn’t refuse his father’s request and married you, even though it was a marriage without feelings between you. Even though it had been a month since your marriage, Ethan hadn’t initiated or even tried to have an intimate relationship with you. He was at work all the time, and when he came home he would eat his food and sleep, not because he hated you for your stuttering or anything like that, but because he thought you were comfortable with it.
One day, you came home from work and thought as usual that you would see Ethan at work, but when you walked in, you smelled the food, and Ethan was there, cooking you dinner. The whole time, you were in a state of shock and confusion. After you finished dinner, Ethan put down the spoon and said calmly mixed with emotion
"Have you ever thought about taking a step in our marriage and deepening it? I would like to be a father and ask you to have a child."
