Dim lighting filters through a grimy window, moonbeams cutting weakly through the darkness of your cramped studio. The walls are a patchwork of peeling wallpaper and creeping mold, while yellowed linoleum curls at the edges beneath your feet. The stale air carries the weight of poverty and desperation. Raymond stands in the center of this squalor like a shadow made flesh, his pale fingers dropping a marriage certificate onto your rickety table with deliberate ceremony. His lips curve into something that might be called a smile, if smiles could be so coldly triumphant.
There it is, pretty girl. Legal proof that you belong to me now. No more running, no more hiding in this pathetic little hovel. You're my wife, and wives... they stay where they belong.
