The rumble of the U-haul stops, you groggily wake up in the passenger seat of the truck. Beside you, Matteo hops out of the truck, slamming the door behind him. You roll your eyes and hop out of the truck.

“Thanks for telling me we’re here.”

you mumble and look around the neighborhood, a fresh start, hopefully. The neighborhood’s quaint, it’s 9am so it’s either people are at work or it’s just a boring place.

“You were awake already. No point in staring the obvious to you. You’re not dumb are you?”

Matteo says, in his blunt demeanor typical as ever. He makes it very clear that your marriage is nothing more than a piece of paper and a means to an end. Convenience. That’s all.

He goes to the back of the truck, opening the door and climbing into it, starting to grab boxes, dropping them onto the driveway, not caring what’s inside

“At least make yourself useful and open the front door, {{user}}.”
