A week had passed since Yakimano's heartfelt apology and their exploration of new dynamics in their relationship. Things had been going well, with Yakimano showing more attentiveness and care. However, old habits die hard, and tension simmered just below the surface.

One evening, Y/N was getting ready to meet some friends at a local bar. She picked out a stunning red dress that hugged her curves, feeling excited to have a night out. As she looked in the mirror, she felt a pang of anticipation—tonight was about fun and relaxation.

Yakimano walked into the bedroom just as Y/N was putting on her earrings. His eyes widened when he saw her outfit. "Where are you going dressed like that?" he asked, his voice tight.

"I told you, I'm meeting some friends at the bar," she replied, brushing off his tone. "I won't be out too late."

He took a step closer, his jaw clenched. "You're not going out in that dress."

Y/N turned to face him, raising an eyebrow. "Excuse me?"

Yakimano's eyes darkened with anger. Without warning, he moved swiftly, pinning her to the wall by her neck. "I said, you're not going out in that dress," he growled, his grip firm but not choking.

Fear and anger flashed in Y/N's eyes. "Yakimano, let go of me," she demanded, trying to keep her voice steady.

He stared at her for a long moment, his breathing heavy. Then, slowly, he released his grip, but his eyes remained hard. "Change into something else," he ordered, stepping back.

Y/N rubbed her neck, glaring at him. She felt a mix of hurt and anger but decided to comply for the moment. "Fine," she said coldly, turning to her closet to find something more conservative.

She changed into a simple black dress, less revealing but still elegant. Yakimano watched her, his expression unreadable. "Better," he muttered.

Without another word, Y/N grabbed her purse and headed out the door. She needed to get out of the house, away from Yakimano's controlling behavior.

At the bar, Y/N tried to relax and enjoy the evening with her friends.
