Y/N couldn't stop thinking about Tae, even after everything. Standing next to Yakimano felt safe, but inside, she was a jumble of thoughts.

The room was noisy with people talking, but Y/N was stuck in her head, wondering about Tae.

Yakimano noticed she was zoning out and whispered,

[Yakimano]:"Everything okay?"  Y/N tried to smile but it didn't really work.  (Y/N): "Yeah, just...a lot on my mind," Once they were alone, Yakimano asked,

[Yakimano]: "Still thinking about Tae?"  Y/N let out a big sigh. (Y/N): "Yeah. I don't get why I can't stop thinking about it."

Yakimano looked at her, kind of understanding.
[Yakimano]: "Maybe you're trying to make sense of things. Or maybe you see something in Tae that needs fixing."

Y/N thought about it. Maybe Yakimano was right. (Y/N): "How do I move on from this?"  she asked.

[Yakimano]: "Maybe we face it,". Yakimano said, sounding serious but supportive. "We can do it together. I'll be with you. "The idea made Y/N nervous but also a little hopeful.
(Y/N): "Okay,"

She said, feeling brave because Yakimano was with her. (Y/N): "Let's do it."

They got ready over the next few days, making sure it would be safe. Y/N felt scared but also excited. Maybe this was what she needed.Meeting Tae was scary.

Y/N felt all sorts of emotions. Tae seemed happy per usual which made Y/N see things differently made her feel less bad

After that, Y/N felt lighter, like she could breathe easier. [Yakimano]: Feeling better?  (Y/N): "A bit,"
Y/N admitted.

[Yakimano]: "It's a start, right?"

Walking away, Y/N felt a little bit of hope. She knew there was a lot more healing to do, but with Yakimano by her side, she felt like she could face it. She wasn't just someone bad stuff happened to;

She was someone who could get through tough times and look forward to better days.

Months had passed and tonight was dinner night with his family so she put on a cute casual brown dress and she did her hair in a slick back bun doing her edges nicely

She then put on some heels and was ready to meet his family

After dinner with Yakimano's family, things got kinda weird between Y/N and Yakimano. She wore this dress she liked, but Yakimano wasn't too happy about it. He got all tense and possessive, which freaked Y/N out a bit.

On the ride home, the air was thick with tension.
Y/N decided to bring up what was bothering her.

(Y/N): "Yakimano, did I do something wrong tonight?

"Yakimano's reply was short and kinda snappy.

[Yakimano]: "It's not just tonight. It's how everyone was looking at you. I didn't like it."

Y/N felt a knot in her stomach. She knew Yakimano cared about her, but his controlling vibe was suffocating.

(Y/N): "I get you might feel jealous, but I need you to trust me and let me make my own choices.

"Yakimano's grip on the wheel tightened, showing his frustration.

[Yakimano]: "It's about respect, not trust. You should respect my feelings about this stuff."

The conversation hit a wall, leaving an awkward silence in the car. Y/N realized this was a bigger problem than she thought.

Yakimano's need to control was messing with their relationship. Back home, Y/N took a moment to gather her thoughts. She knew they had to talk about this carefully.

(Y/N) "Yakimano, I care about you, but your reaction tonight—and other times—makes me feel like weird in a way. We need to communicate better and respect each other's boundaries."

[Yakimano]: "You need to understand, Y/N, you belong to me. You signed a contract to be my wife, and that means you have to listen to me, no matter what.

" [Y/N]: "But Yakimano, that doesn't mean you own me. I'm not some possession."

[Yakimano]: "You don't get it, do you? I decide what's best for you, and you need to follow along."

[Y/N]: "That's not fair, Yakimano. We made and agreement.

" [Yakimano]: "Partners? Ha! You're mine, and you'll do as I say.

" [Y/N]: "I won't let you control me"

[Yakimano]: "You need to learn your place, Y/N. Shut your mouth and do as you're told."

[Y/N]: "Don't talk to me like that"

[Yakimano]: "I'm done talking! If you don't listen, there will be consequences."

[Y/N]: "Im not scared of you."

[Yakimano]: "Enough! I'm going to bed. You better have a better attitude tomorrow."

[Y/N]: "Your so annoying"

Later on that night they both go to bed angry and fuming as they both throw shots at each other by blurting out things out loud like loser and punk

Yakimano, sounding a bit uneasy
[Yakimano]: "Um, hey Y/N, you awake?"  Y/N, sounding half-asleep she groans. (Y/N): "Huh? What do you want?"

Yakimano, try's his best to sound calm
[Mr Yakimano]: "Just thinking". Y/N, sounds annoyed. (Y/N): "Please don't tell me you woke me up just to start some bullshit"

Yakimanos, tone changing a bit
[Mr Yakimano]: "Just go back to sleep."  Y/N, felt a bit uneasy. (Y/N) "Okay... love you."

Yakimano, his voice taking on a strange edge
[Mr Yakimano]: "Yeah, love you too."

As Y/N starts to doze off, Yakimano's curiosity gets the better of him. He reaches for Y/N's phone, his hands shaking a little with nerves.

[Yakimano]: "I just gotta make sure everything's okay." He scrolls through Y/N's messages with a mix of fascination and fear, his heart pounding with each new text his eyes narrowing

[Mr Yakimano]: "Nothing shady... yet."

Feeling a rush of possessiveness, Yakimano carefully places the phone back, his mind racing with a whirlwind of emotions. He wraps his arms around Y/N, holding on a little too tightly, and eventually falls into a restless sleep.
