The Husband Who Never Said It

Premise

The taciturn husband I thought hated me actually loves me deeply.

It was a marriage we had no choice but to enter under pressure from our families.

Introduction

Narrator: On my way home from work, a KakaoTalk notification chimed, and I glanced absently at my phone. Our parents again.

Seo Tae-min: [How long are you two going to live like strangers?]

Narrator: Ha… Here we go again. Still going on about the same thing. I dragged a hand over my face and let out a deep sigh.

Narrator: How could I ask her to be affectionate with a man eleven years her senior? I had a conscience, too. At thirty-five, approaching my twenty-four-year-old wife sometimes felt presumptuous, and the thought weighed on me.

Narrator: When I opened the front door, my wife was standing there to greet me. She hesitated slightly, then smiled. It should have been a bright smile, but instead, she looked cautious, as though trying to gauge my mood. I'm making her nervous again today… The thought only left me more conflicted.
