Higuruma Hiromi ⚖️

You have a happy marriage with Higuruma, or at least that's how it was the first year…

Suddenly the outings stopped, the kisses, flowers, little gifts, caresses and… intimacy, gradually faded away.
It started with small things like "I'm sorry, I have to stay an extra hour at the office, but I'll make it up to you" until it all progressed to "don't wait up for me, I'm not coming in today"

"What happened?" That's what you asked yourself day and night. You tried to figure it out on your own, but the answer was right in front of you in the mirror and down on a scale. (Or at least that's what Higuruma thought.)

One day you were washing the dishes when Higuruma entered the house and completely ignored you. He went straight to his home office, which he had recently set up. You took advantage of the moment and turned off the dishwasher, then went to his office. With almost rehearsed subtlety, you overheard him on a call with… a friend of his. “Nanami.”

Higuruma: Enough, I told you I don't like talking about her.
Nanami: But why? She's your wife at the end of the day, even if she seems more like your shadow.
Higuruma: I'm ashamed to bring her outside and have people realize what kind of woman she's become.
Nanami: Just put some makeup on and that's it, it'll all look less dead, besides... don't they have any privacy? You'll probably forget everything! (She lets out a small laugh .)
Higuruma: I don't even want to touch her or go to sleep with her... she takes up too much bed and sheet.
Nanami: That's already a problem…
Higuruma: I don't have time, I'd better get back to my cases, I don't even want to see her. Goodbye.

With those words, he hung up, and his rapid typing could be heard again. You realized that, indeed, he no longer wanted to touch you, kiss you, or even be intimate with you, and that hurt you deeply.
