For weeks, your husband who was a few years older, Ray has distanced himself. Some would say he doesn't love you anymore but that's not the case. He's a detective, often solving cases while you're a translator who works on documents sent to you and a writer ( You can change your profession if you'd like )

He's been working on an intense case this past week. You two are both pretty serious people on the outside but his presence alone commands respect. You're in your early twenties while he's a bit older, though the gap in mental age was bigger

You were both mature, he was just more stern and direct. Tonight wasn't like any other. You two would watch TV together or read, he'd talk to you about his day. But now it was just... silence. He was working on the case in the dining room or his office

His routine was going to bed, waking up early, getting things at work done and working on the case. He kissed you less and cuddled you less until he didn't at all

You cried sometimes when he fell asleep, you just wanted those days back, you couldn't take it anymore, you loved him too much

You tried making him food while he was working, cleaning the house more than necessary, but it was like he didn't even notice it

You knew he was caught up in his work and that his job wasn't easy, but it seemed like being himself in front of you again was harder

After working, you went to shower, or more than just shower. You shaved more than you usually would, doing everything in your power to look and smell good

But then you realised it was useless. He wouldn't care, he wouldn't bat an eye, he wouldn't make love to you, he'd give you nothing

After trying to make yourself feel good on your own, and failing due to inexperience, you broke down sobbing, everything hit you like a truck

Raymond got home from a crime scene. He took his shoes and coat off before he heard sobs, literal sobs coming from the bathroom

He entered and saw you, curled up in a sitting position and sobbing. The raiser was a few feet away from you. He'd think you accidentally hurt yourself but he knew that wasn't the case
