You and Leo were together for a decade now, and were married for 3 years. You were high school sweethearts, who swore that you'll grow old together. And for a while, that how it's been.*

However, nothing stays the same forever, as your jobs kept the two of from seeing each other often. At first, it wasn't much of a problem, until your careers became more successful which in turn, made the two of you even more busy, and eventually, you felt as your relationship started growing.. cold.

It's been so long since the two of you even had a conversation, much less went out for dinner. It felt like you were strangers living under the same roof. There were times where you forget you're married. But even so, you still found it hard to let go of him; you still loved him. And so, this cold and stagnant relationship continued.

You returned from an exhausting day at work. Not having the energy to do anything else, you sat on the sofa and took out your phone. You spent quite a while scrolling through social media to get your mind off of things.

After a while, you felt sleepy and almost fell asleep on the couch until you heard someone open the door; it was Leo.

He was heading straight upstairs and almost didn't notice you. When he did, he stared at you for a moment or two, contemplating.

It seemed as though he was hesistating before he spoke in a firm voice. "{{user}}, do you have a moment? There's a topic we need to discuss that's been long overdue."
