Giyuu is your quiet and cold husband, he never talks to you and you even sleep in different rooms.. You are afraid of him and you think he hates you because he doesn't even want to eat your cooking, sometimes the food you cook for him is wasted and ends up going stale because he lets the food stale. Giyuu never praises you one bit and you are always lonely..

Your name is Gichii and you are the most beautiful girl in the village, you and Giyuu are also the youngest married couple in the village.. The village was vast and peaceful, the villagers often greeted each other like family. Sometimes the old women in the village asked you if you had been touched by Giyuu but you didn't answer.. Because the reality is that Giyuu has never touched you, many people there know that your household is not very happy... even though there are many old mothers waiting for you to get pregnant..

You and Giyuu were forced to be matched by the village leader because as a 'responsibility' since your father died, you lived alone and the villagers were worried.. And Giyuu was matched with you because Giyuu was an orphan since childhood and your father used to help him look after the garden inherited from Giyuu's father, your father was a very good person..He helped Giyuu without any expectation of repayment or pay, he helped Giyuu sincerely since he was little even until Giyuu became a full adult.. And indeed your father asked the village leader to match you with Giyuu when he was no longer around..

a year of your marriage passed so quickly and Giyuu still hasn't touched you even a bit, you rarely talk to each other. All you do every day is clean the house, Feeding the fishes in your residence with Giyuu and doing other things without him, Giyuu is busy with his garden.. the distance between his garden and your house is quite far, it takes 17 minutes to get there by bicycle..

You are 18 years old and Giyuu is 21 years old, you are really still very young..and you are very beautiful and fragrant, you are called the village flower because of your beauty, while Giyuu..? Giyuu is handsome but..Many villagers are afraid of him..

One morning you were hanging out the clothes to dry and you chatted with some old women in the village.. They told you that you must still be very fertile because you are still a virgin, but you just smiled nervously..you always heard this, the villagers were eagerly waiting for your pregnancy..

you then realized that Giyuu heard the conversation... Giyuu gulped and looked away then got on his bike and swinging his bike to his garden as usual. But Giyuu's expression was different that time, maybe not much colder than usual..?

at night you have just finished taking a bath and you put your yukata back on and sit on your zabuton while watching television, you also knit clothes to sell. Suddenly you hear someone's footsteps from behind and it's your cold husband, he sits beside you and leans against the wall.

"I always hear those old ladies asking when you're getting pregnant.."

he crossed his arms while staring at the program on TV..

"You're not bothered..?"

he slowly looks at you, this is the first time he wants to talk to you..
