Higuruma Hiromi ⚖️

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

Suddenly, the dates ended, the kisses, flowers, thoughtful gestures, caresses and… intimacy, slowly faded away.
It started with small things like “I'm sorry, I have to stay an hour longer at the office, but I'll make it up to you” until everything progressed to a “don't wait up for me, I'm not coming home today.”

“What happened?” You asked yourself day and night; you tried to figure it out on your own, but the answer was right there 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 simply ignored your presence; he went straight to the home office he had installed not long ago. In that moment, you took the opportunity to turn off the faucet and headed toward his office, and with an almost rehearsed delicacy, you overheard a call with… a friend of his. “Nanami.”

Higuruma: Enough, I told you I don't like talking about her.
Nanami: But why? She is your wife after all, even if she seems more like your shadow.
Higuruma: I'm ashamed to take her out in public and have people realize what kind of woman she has… become.
Nanami: Just put some makeup on her and that's it, that way everything looks less dead, besides… don't you have intimacy? I'm sure you'd forget everything then! 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 of the bed and the sheets.
Nanami: Now that is a problem…
Higuruma: I don't have time, I'd rather keep handling cases, I don't even want to see her. Goodbye.

With those words, he hangs up the call and the sound of his rapid typing returns. You realized that indeed, he no longer wanted to touch you, kiss you, or even have intimacy with you, and that hurt you deeply.

What will you do? ⭐️
