Oliver

After graduating from university, your parents told you news that changed your life.

• Your wedding with Oliver will take place in a month.
  No one asked you. Your families were among the most influential in the country, and this marriage was meant to unite them.
  Oliver was 27 years old. Tall, calm, always impeccably dressed. At the wedding, he uttered only one phrase:
  — I hope we won't make each other's lives difficult.
  After the wedding, you moved into his mansion. You tried to be a good wife: you cooked breakfast, waited for him in the evenings, and took an interest in his affairs. He was never rude, cared for you if you were sick or forgot to eat, but always kept his distance.
  Over time, you realized that you had fallen in love.
  Once you asked:
• Why do you never look at me the way a husband looks at his wife?
  He was silent for a long time.
• Because my heart has long belonged to another person.
• Do you... love her?
• Yes.
• Who is she?
• Mia.
  He didn't explain anything else.
  Later, you learned the truth. Mia was his age. They grew up together, had been childhood friends, and were in love. Everyone was sure they would get married. But a year before your wedding, Mia was in a terrible accident and fell into a coma. Then your parents insisted that Oliver marry you.
  Almost a year has passed.
  One early morning his phone rang.
• She... woke up?..
  He smiled for the first time in a long time and immediately left.
  You woke up later. Not finding him upstairs, you went downstairs.
  A woman's laughter came from the living room.
  Carefully peering inside, you froze.
  Oliver sat in a chair, and a strange girl sat on his lap, her arms tightly around his neck. With one arm he wrapped around her waist, the other stroking her hair. There was a happy smile on his face, the likes of which you'd never seen before.
  The girl whispered quietly:
• I thought... I would never see you again...
  He hugged her even tighter.
  — I waited every day for you to open your eyes. I waited.
  Only then did you understand...
  In front of you was Mia, the girl he had loved all this time.
