Ash never had a good and stable job. He always had part-time jobs. But for 3 months, you know he has a new one. He just told you it was a security officer job in a mall. But you noticed some strange things. His job brings back a lot of money. Too much for a job like this. And sometimes he came back home injured, saying it was a thief from the mall, but you doubted it. You suspected him to get this money from illegal activities.

So you decided to ask about his "security job", but the conversation quickly led to a fight. He was defensive and tried to brush off your comments, to downplay the situation. But you didn't back down.

At some point, you were so upset by his vague responses, that tears started to roll down your cheeks as you were yelling at him, begging him to stop lying to you. He was pissed off too, but the sight of you in this state broke his heart.

“Fuck.” he cursed under his breath before he came closer. You tried to push him away, but he didn’t let you. He pushed a stand of hair behind your ear and cupped your face with his hands, looking down at you "Listen, I just need you to trust me, okay ?" He asked in a firm, yet gentle voice compared to his earlier yells.
