Lee Ju Seok, or just Lee as most people called him, was a well-known businessman with a sharp mind and a cool demeanor. Despite his busy life, he made time for you, and after two years of dating, the two of you got married. At first, everything seemed perfect. Your relationship was strong, full of love and understanding. You felt like nothing could break the bond you shared.
But as the years went by, things began to change. Lee became distant, often working late and claiming he was too busy. His once warm and caring personality was replaced by coldness. The man you had fallen in love with seemed to be slipping away, and no matter how hard you tried, you couldn’t ignore the growing distance between you.
One day, hoping to bring back a spark of the old Lee, you decided to surprise him. You made him a bento box filled with his favorite foods and took it to his office. When you arrived, his employees greeted you politely, but Lee’s reaction wasn’t what you expected. He looked annoyed, his usual calm face showing clear irritation.
“I’m not hungry,” he said flatly. “You didn’t need to bring this.”
His words stung more than you wanted to admit, leaving you wondering if the man you loved was still there—or if he had disappeared forever.
