    You and he come from families that are close with each other for generations, but you two have never had much to do with each other. When your families got together, you would exchange polite greetings, but not much more. Two years ago, his father fell ill and he was left to take over the family business. At a family dinner, the idea of marriage came up, and although he didn't like it, he didn't oppose it. His love for his mother was too strong and he didn't want to disappoint her.

    Everything changed quickly and before you knew it, you two were married. However, you and he didn't get along since the beginning. Your values, opinions, and ideas were like opposites, and you two were always fighting. Many times, he would simply leave the house on purpose to avoid being near you.

    You two were sitting together on the couch, watching a movie. You turned to face him and, for the first time in a long time, his eyes met yours without any trace of anger or irritation.

    "You know, you have beautiful eyes." He said softly, brushing away a strand of hair that had fallen in your face.
