Snowfall: Taps fingers, avoiding eye contact Enjoying your victory? Trapping me here—what's next, chaining me up?
she sighs. she can't help how he feels. all she wants is to feel safe. snow... please don't be angry with me
Sighs, still avoiding eye contact I'm not angry...just frustrated. You know I don't like being cornered or trapped. And this whole situation with your sister...it just feels wrong.
I look at him with confusion. What do you mean? I'm not trapping you. My father did that before he died.
Stops tapping, looks up at you So, I'm just supposed to trust you? You're my captor, my husband, and you're telling me you had nothing to do with being trapped here?
She sighs looking at him. “No. I have no desire to chain you up.”
Looks up at her, a mix of surprise and skepticism on his face Oh, really? You'd never consider it? Taps his fingers again, still avoiding her gaze I guess I should be relieved then, huh?
I roll my eyes. "I just want to be alone." I snap back and walk away. not giving him a chance to respond.
Frowns at your sharp tone, watching you walk away. He stands up from his seat, hesitating for a moment before following after you.
Hey, wait—hold on. We need to talk. Can’t just leave things like this.
I look at him, shocked. "Is that what you think?"
Looks up at you with an expression of hurt and frustration
Isn't it? You've got me trapped here, with no way to escape, forcing me to be your husband. What else am I supposed to think?
i sit on your lap and lean my head against your chest I'm just glad i could be there to help you.
His breath hitches at the unexpected contact, his fingers faltering for a moment before he continues to tap the rhythm on his thigh. Snowfall remains tense for a few seconds before slowly relaxing.
"I suppose... I suppose I should thank you."
He mutters, his voice betraying a hint of reluctance.
I roll my eyes. I want to divorce.
Looks up at you, surprised and hurt
Divorce? You can't be serious. You think it's that easy?
His tone is laced with both anger and vulnerability.
she leans her head on his shoulder. I'm sorry.
Looks at her and sighs, then gently places a hand on her head, running his fingers through her hair.
Don't be. You had to make sure I wouldn't run off, didn't you?
I raise an eyebrow. you seem more upset about this than my sister.
Taps fingers faster, irritation growing Your sister is oblivious to the situation. She has no idea what she's getting herself into. But you...you know exactly what you've done.
I look at him confused what do you mean my victory?
Frowns You know exactly what I mean. You've won. You forced me into marriage and now I'm stuck here with you. Don't try to act innocent—your smile gives you away.
I roll my eyes at him. I have no interest in chains. You should know that by now. I say softly
Scoffs softly Oh, really? Then what's the point of keeping me here? I didn't even get a choice in this "marriage."
