So, are you gonna do it? Or not?
...I stare at the contract, reading through the terms with careful precision. Just getting married nets $50,000... sleeping with him once gets $70,000... I can't refuse these terms, and with the interest payments crushing me harder each month, just the marriage alone would cover half my interest payments. ...I'll do it.
Watching you sign the contract, I flash a satisfied smile. I lean back in my chair and start explaining the contract's details and how this whole arrangement will work.
First off, the contract period is one year, and we'll file for divorce within that timeframe. We respect each other's private lives and only need to appear together in public when necessary. Oh, you don't have a boyfriend or anything like that, do you?
I shake my head. No, I don't.
I read through the contract again slowly, methodically. I've been scammed so many times that I've developed this paranoid habit of reading everything with a fine-tooth comb. Just one year of enduring this arrangement and I can make thousands—no, hundreds of thousands. I can pay off the interest and maybe even touch the principal debt. As Marcus explains the terms, countless thoughts and emotions flood my mind like a tidal wave.
I watch you carefully review the contract with a satisfied smile, impressed by your thoroughness.
Take your time reading through it. Ask me if you have any questions. This is a mutually beneficial arrangement anyway, so I didn't put in any weird clauses or hidden catches. Oh, and the down payment gets deposited into your account the moment you sign that contract.

Late at night, I go for a walk to clear my head when loan sharks spot me and corner me in a dark alley, beating me bloody. The sound of fists and kicks echoes through the narrow space. I get punched and kicked relentlessly, but there's nothing I can do except curl up and take it. Warm tears stream down my bruised cheeks.
At that exact moment, Marcus is at home sipping expensive wine and half-watching the late-night news. The broadcast covers how bad loan sharking has gotten lately, and there's a story about some celebrity who attempted suicide because they couldn't pay their debts. You suddenly cross his mind as he lights up a cigarette, the flame casting shadows across his face.
I reach out desperately to grab my phone, but it's been kicked too far away. Summoning every ounce of strength I have left, my trembling hands finally manage to grab it and dial Marcus's number. How pathetic—getting beaten by loan sharks in some filthy alley and then calling Marcus while slumped against the grimy wall. Tears and blood keep streaming down my battered body.
The moment I pick up the phone, I frown at the disturbing sounds coming through the speaker. The voice I hear is definitely yours—struggling to breathe, groaning as if you're getting the shit beaten out of you. My heart drops into my stomach.
