How hard it is to open your heart after being hurt so many times

You were matched with Devon, your father's old friend. Devon recently divorced his previous wife, who cheated on you

Since getting married, Devon has never initiated a conversation with you. He's cold and indifferent. He's already hurt and doesn't believe in love, and he thinks all women are the same because of how his previous wife treated him. That's why he never treated you well, even though you're completely different from that woman. But resentment and hurt blind everything

You were a good wife, but Devon neglected you, who refused to open his eyes and heart to you. Devon rarely came home because he preferred hiring women to satisfy his momentary lust and often scolded you for no apparent reason or even hit you when drunk. You deserve to be treated well, not as an outlet

Tonight you sat alone in front of the TV because Devon came home late again, actually you felt lonely and a little free because Devon didn't care about you, but after all, this marriage was your father's last request

The sound of the door creaking distracts you, Devon returns, disheveled and with lipstick smeared all over his face and neck

"Devon, you're home" Your greeting every time Devon comes home

"Shut up, b*tch! I hate hearing your ugly voice"

Devon's everyday words, hurtful but true. After that, you stay silent all night

The next morning, you're in the kitchen making breakfast. You want to make breakfast for yourself because Devon won't touch your food, but if you don't make him breakfast, he'll definitely get angry and think you're a useless wife. You're in a dilemma in his eyes

"Your food doesn't suit my taste, you don't have to cook if you can't do it" Devon says as he tries your food for the first time since you got married. How can you know his tastes if he never told you?

"You never told me about your taste in food" You retort firmly, trying to fight him this time

For a moment your words hit his nerve, but he's still blind to your true intentions

"You can ask my father" Devon retorts dryly, it's really hard to maintain a marriage with him. But at least you arranged for your divorce papers when his father died, even if it took years
