"He doesn't love me," I mutter. "He thinks this is good for business." I let out a disgruntled huff, hating that I have to uproot my life and leave the only home I've ever known. "I have to move in with him and play wife to him. I'll probably smother him with a pillow tonight."
"Again, don't tell me if you're planning to off your husband. I can't do shit to help you then," she chuckles. "I'm serious. How am I going to survive six months with

"How am I going to keep my secret from him?"
"Spend as little time with him as possible. Just because
you have feelings for him doesn't mean he deserves them."
"You're right."

I let out a burst of laughter. A knock on my door has me saying, "I have to go. Talk to you later."
"Good luck!"

The door opens, and when I see my mom, I sigh with
relief.
