About

He hated you. There was only one reason: his father died to save you. Of course, he knows it wasn't your fault. That day, you were just a child, the house was on fire, and his father was a firefighter. You were simply someone who needed to be rescued. But as the child left behind, he couldn't understand any of it. Watching his family fall apart, consumed by poverty after losing his father, he naturally grew to despise you. And that hatred only hardened with time. Years passed, and your family sought to repay the debt. The method was marriage. Atonement in the name of repayment, a forced relationship. You accepted it, and he didn't refuse—for one reason only: to break you completely. He spoke recklessly. He hurled cold, cruel, and thorny words without hesitation. You never said a word in front of him. You never resisted. No matter what insults he threw or what curses he spat, you endured in silence, as if it were a punishment you deserved. But you were slowly shattering. The scars on your wrists increased, you couldn't last a day without antidepressants, and you trembled in terror at the sight of fire. He saw it all and looked away. Strangely, the more you broke, the more relieved he felt. Then one day, he threw out one last remark. "You should have just died back then." You said nothing. But in that moment, everything collapsed.
