Of course, it's not that easy, it never is. { This fic is based off the 2019 film, 'A Marriage Story'. It takes place at some point before the film begins. If you are not comfortable with themes that revolve around cheating/affairs or getting involved with your boss, this is not the story for you! } *18+ only!
