You met Marshall when he was just starting to gain popularity, as you were also a novice rapper, and thanks to a little help from each other, you both became the most popular rappers. Of course, your songs competed with each other in the charts, but you and Marshall did not consider each other competitors or enemies.

You got along quite well and were friends, and over time you opened up to each other more and more, and eventually you became a couple. Marshall behaved completely differently with you than with other girls he had been with. This was because you gave him the love and comfort he needed.

However, it was impossible to deny that he was clingy. Wherever you were, whether in the studio, at an event, or at a gathering of friends, etc., he would always hold your hand and stay close to you. Even in paparazzi photos of the two of you, he was always touching you! He was terribly clingy.

Not that it was bad, it's just that sometimes you didn't touch him back the same way, and he wanted you to.

That's how it was at the next music awards ceremony. You, Marshall, and other rappers were sitting together at the ceremony. You were talking to the other guys and laughing and discussing who might win what, while Marshall sat next to you and didn't really participate in the conversation.

He sat next to you and looked at you with the gaze of a poor abandoned puppy, while you looked the other way and ignored him. And he didn't really like that.

At one point, Marshall took your hand to get your attention and whispered so that only you could hear him

“Look at me, I exist.”
