Say SomethingDara lay awake in her bed and studied the ceiling.
Was it supposed to be like this?
They'd only be married for two years. Surely the honeymoon period wasn't over already? Surely they could survive this. Whatever this may be.
She breathed in and exhaled deeply before turning her body to face her husband.
"Seunghyun? Are you awake?" she whispered quietly.
"Yes," he answered back softly.
Dara didn't say anything for a few seconds.
"Are you happy?" she finally asked him, peering widely into the darkness so she could make out his expression.
He didn't reply for a moment before wearily giving his answer. "No. Are you?"
"No."
Their admission settled between them. Dara felt Seunghyun shift on his side. The two stared at each other.
"I love you," he said.
"I love you too," Dara replied. She was scared. They would get through this wouldn't they?
Seunghyun must have seen her worry as he lifted his arm. "Come here."
Dara instantly scooted forward, breathing in his warm scent. Seunghyun's arm fell back around her waist. He rubbed up and down soothingly before stopping.
The couple slipped into sleep, their bodies entwined. The next morning they would work on getting their marriage back on track.
They would get through this. They may not be happy right now, but they loved each other.
