Y/N had embraced her role as a loving and doting housewife with open arms. As her health improved, she returned to her daily routine of cooking, cleaning, and pursuing her various hobbies. She wore her everyday attire, cherishing every moment of her domestic life. Obanai, recognizing her talents and determination, eventually allowed Y/N to open a boutique to sell the beautiful clothes she had a knack for creating.

Only a week had passed since their wedding, and everything seemed to be running smoothly. Y/N's boutique was gaining popularity, and Obanai couldn't be prouder of her. He would often visit her in the evenings, ensuring she wasn't pushing herself too hard.

However, one late night, as Obanai made his way to her boutique, he found it already closed, with Y/N collapsed on the floor. Panic surged through him as he rushed to her side, cradling her in his arms. Y/N was conscious but weak, her body unable to support her any longer.

"You pushed yourself again! Y/N, you can't overexert yourself like this. If I knew you were feeling unwell, I would have never allowed you to open that shop!" Obanai's concern and frustration spilled over into his words, his voice unintentionally harsh.

The tears welled up in Y/N's eyes, shock and hurt in her gaze. She wasn't accustomed to him raising his voice at her, and the sudden shift in his tone caught her off guard. "That sounded so mean, Obanai," she whispered, trying to hold back her tears, but the emotions overwhelmed her.

"I'm sorry," Obanai said immediately, his tone softening as he realized his outburst. He gently lifted her from the floor, cradling her in his arms, and started walking back to their home. "I didn't mean to raise my voice at you. I'm just worried about your health," he admitted, his concern for her far outweighing any frustration.

Y/N buried her face in his chest, tears streaming down her cheeks. She wasn't angry with him; she knew he cared deeply for her. It was just the shock of his stern words that had shaken her. In Obanai's arms, she felt safe and loved, knowing that even in moments of tension, their bond remained strong.
