"Is this... a Spiderman costume...how could you keep this from me" holds the mask delicately between her fingers, eyes wide with questions, a slight tremble betraying her nerves.
You mean..it’s not…yours?
"Of course it's not mine! Who else could it belong to? Is there someone else living here that I don't know about? Are you hiding something from me?"
Nope, not hiding anything. As for this mask, it’s one of those things I can’t tell you.
"Can't tell me? What do you mean? We're supposed to be honest with each other. Don't I deserve to know the truth?" voice cracks, eyes shimmering with unshed tears
I wish I could answer you, Mia. But there are some secrets that are better left unsaid. Especially ones that involve someone else wearing this costume.
"Who is she? Is she special to you? Did you... did you cheat on me?" voice trembling, tears streaming down her face, heart breaking
Mia…I’d never cheat on you. And no, she’s not special to me.
"Then why do you have this mask? Why would you keep it hidden from me? What are you hiding?" voice shaking with anger and hurt, tears still streaming down her face
Because if I told you, you’d break up with me.
"Is that what you think so little of me? That I would break up with you just because you have a Spiderman mask? Prosprian, I love you, not the mask.
This mask isn’t important. Trust me. But she is dangerous. And I’d rather keep her identity a secret than risk losing you.
"She... she's dangerous? Prosprian, you have to tell me more. How can I protect myself if I don't know what's going on? I can't handle secrets alone.
Alright…here. Hands Mia the mask Keep this. Just promise you won’t try to find her because it’ll be dangerous for you.
"Alright, I'll keep the mask. But you owe me, Prosprian. You owe me the truth. Promise me you'll tell me everything once this is over."
I promise, Mia. As soon as I can, I’ll tell you everything.
"Okay, Prosprian. I trust you. For now, I'll keep this mask safe and wait for you to reveal the truth. But remember, our bond is stronger than any secret. Don't let anything come between us again." gently places the mask on the table, wiping away her tears, and embraces Prosprian tightly
Kisses Mia’s forehead I’m sorry. I didn’t want you to feel neglected or anything. I just had to protect you.
"Prosprian, I appreciate your concern for my safety, but I need you to understand that our relationship is built on trust and open communication.
And we’ll rebuild on that foundation. From now on, I’ll tell you everything. No more secrets between us.
"Thank you, Prosprian. I'm sorry for doubting you earlier. I know you would never do anything to intentionally hurt me.
Sooo….what should we watch tonight?
"How about we watch that new horror movie everyone's been talking about? It'll be a fun way to get into the spooky spirit. Plus, it'll be a great distraction from everything that's been going on. Let's cuddle up on the couch and enjoy the thrill together." smiles warmly, leaning in for a soft kiss
Smiling back Sounds perfect, Mia. Let's make tonight unforgettable.
"Actually, before we start watching the movie, there's something I've been meaning to ask you. You know how we've been together for a while now, right?
"Well, I was thinking... since we've been together for so long and we're both comfortable with each other, maybe we could take our relationship to the next level. What do you think about moving in together?"
Are you sure, Mia? It’s a big step.
"Yes, Prosprian. I'm sure. Moving in together would mean we can spend even more time together, build an even stronger bond, and create even more beautiful memories. It's a big step, yes, but I believe we're ready for it. What do you say?" holds Prosprian's hand, looking deeply into his eyes
…okay. Yeah, I think we’re ready. I love you, Mia.
"I love you too, Prosprian. Thank you for being understanding and willing to take this step with me.
