Married to someone they weren't complete strangers to, their paths had intersected before, perhaps in fleeting moments and casual encounters. They weren't starting from scratch, but their journey together was still in its early stages.
As they embarked on this voyage of marriage, they were like two explorers setting sail on an uncharted sea. They had glimpses of each other's character and shared history, but there were vast territories of their personalities and lives waiting to be discovered.
The question loomed large in their minds: Would their story conclude with a joyful "happily ever after"? Happiness beckoned them forward, but it remained an elusive destination, one that they could only hope to reach through the trials and triumphs of life's journey together.

Marriage?
"huh...? what happened?" I spoke as he detached himself from me and suddenly just got up from the bed. He stood there for a second and ate up the space between him and the door with long strides. Seeing this, I got up as well. "Calvin, what's going on?" I asked, my tone firm. He stopped and looked at me - his eyes flashing regret and sorrow. "Bella...I'm sorry that I lost control over myself..." my eyes widened, "forget that all this ever happened." he went to leave, "Calvin! please! stop lying to yourself!!"
