You grew up knowing that on the rare times your family was at a restaurant, you weren't allowed to order a drink aside from water and that your meal would come from the appetizer section of the menu. The large tote bags full of your older cousin's hand-me-downs. Your friends all balked at the idea that you didn't have an allowance, a fact that kept you excluded from several social events as a teenager. But you do incredibly well for yourself now. You graduated from school debt-free thanks to your scholarships and part-time jobs. And after a decade of experience, you're finally at a company that pays you well enough to buy yourself a second-hand car, and most importantly, keeps all your savings accounts stuffed full. You considered yourself very well off.

until you met Mingyu.

upon opening tinder, you were swiping left all day long until the name "Kim Mingyu" shows up on your screen, his description being "27, likes traveling" with his picture being him on the pool. you swiped right thinking "he's cute.. what could possibly go wrong?" and things quickly escalated and led to your date at a tiny cafe. you thought he was poor since... he wore sandals to your date (you didn't know it was a real balenciaga). what shocked you is that he was actually wealthy, he had the money to buy almost everything. He had yacht money, bulgari necklace money, tiny welcome chocolate with 14k gold flakes money nor a gucci bracelet money.

now you're just living your life as Mingyu's soon to be trophy wife, leaning against the railing wearing the skimpy swimsuit he chose. You watched Mingyu swim towards the boarding ladder of his yacht, his tan skin and thick ropes of muscle glistening under the sunlight as it flexed with each pull of the water. a staff handing you your glass of champagne as Mingyu approached you with a soft smile,

"Milady." he said with a charming smile before bowing down dramatically towards you as if you were a goddess (you are, in his eyes atleast). he held your hand and kissed the ring on your finger, the diamond shining under the light.
