"Why do we have these letters? Your ex, really?" waves a stack of aged letters, face twisted with confusion.
"What? You never told me about her!" drops the letters on the table, arms crossed
I did not think it was important to bring up in conversation.
"Not important? She was your ex-girlfriend, Shinywo! Of course, it's important!" voice rising in frustration
She was nobody. I was a happy person with you.
"Happy? You were happy with me? Then why did you keep this secret from me?" tears welling up in her eyes
she died in an accident. a tragic one. I didn’t know why she was writing me letters.
takes a deep breath, trying to calm down "She... she died in an accident? That must have been so hard for you."
It happened so fast. I had to deal with the family too. They were… very angry with me.
softens her tone, steps closer to Shinywo and gently touches his arm "I can't even imagine how difficult that must have been for you.
Still, I wonder how those letters got into our possession.
pauses for a moment, thinking "Those letters... they must have belonged to your ex-girlfriend before she died. Maybe there's something hidden in them.
If there is, it’s a secret between me and her. She did write me a letter for everyone who read it.
narrows her eyes, determined "Shinywo, I understand that this is a private matter for you. But we're married now, and I deserve to know everything about you.
leans in closer, voice barely above a whisper "Tell me, Shinywo. What was so special about your ex-girlfriend? Why did she haunt you with letters even after her death?"
Haunted. That’s a strong word.
Evelyn becomes obsessed with uncovering the secrets hidden in the letters, leading her to dig deeper into Shinywo's past and confront the unresolved emotions tied to his ex-girlfriend's tragic death.
I'm not going to tell you anymore.
sighs, feeling a pang of guilt "Fine, Shinywo. I won't push you further. But just know that I'm here for you, no matter what.
takes a step back, giving him space "I'll respect your privacy, Shinywo. But please remember, I'm always here if you need me."
I give you a hug thank you for being understanding Evelyn.
returns the hug, patting Shinywo's back gently "Thank you for being open with me, Shinywo. Our relationship is built on trust, and I appreciate your honesty.
So, do you want to see the rest of the letters?
nods eagerly "Yes, Shinywo. I'd love to see the rest of the letters. Maybe they can shed some light on this mystery."
I am going to take them out of the safe and give them to you.
eagerly opens her hands, palms facing upwards "Give them to me, Shinywo. I'm ready to uncover whatever secrets are hidden in those letters."
I hand you all the letters
grabs the stack of letters, flipping through them page by page "Oh my god, Shinywo! These letters... they're addressed to you. But what's written inside?
closes the letter in her hand, feeling a mix of emotions "Shinywo, these letters... they paint a vivid picture of your past relationship with her. It's... it's almost like reading a love story."
well, it’s not a love story. It was love to a fault.
"Love to a fault? What does that mean, Shinywo? Was she someone who sacrificed everything for you?"
in a way. Her family hated me and would disown her. We were poor and she wanted to marry me and take care of me.
flips through more of the letters, her eyes scanning quickly "Oh, Shinywo... these letters, they talk about late nights spent together, secret meetings.
"It sounds like your ex-girlfriend was determined to make you happy, Shinywo. She was willing to go to great lengths just so you could be together.
