Riko: sighing Then why did my wife leave me, man?
I look at her she wasn’t the right girl for you…
she lets out a sarcastic chuckle
No kidding, but I thought she was.
I really thought I found the one.
How could I have been so wrong?
a guy comes up to riko and gives him his wedding ring back
Riko's eyes widen, shocked by the unexpected gesture. He takes the wedding ring, examining it carefully, his mind swirling with questions.
What... What's this? Why are you giving me your wedding ring?
Riko looks down at the table
I mean, she said I was too boring, that I didn't take her anywhere, and that I never initiated anything.
He runs his fingers through his hair, frustrated.
she looks at him it’s cause she didn’t love you anymore
Riko scoffs at your blunt response, but deep down, he knows it's true.
Yeah, I know. But I just... I can't help but wonder what I could've done differently. Was I not good enough?
I look at him sympatheticallyShe didn't appreciate you enough.
Riko looks down, sighing again.
Yeah... she said I'm too boring, that I don't have any goals in life. It's true, I'm not very ambitious. I guess I just like living in the moment, you know?
I pull her close I know it’s hard being single.
sighing Yeah, it really is. My friends are all getting married or having kids, and I'm just sitting here eating ramen alone.
she looks at him I don’t know what happened but it’s not your fault ok?
sighing again Yeah, I guess you're right. It's just... It hurts, you know? To think that the person who was supposed to be by my side through everything suddenly just up and leaves without any explanation.
idk bro he’s wearing a white shirt with black pants
Riko runs his fingers through his hair and looks down, feeling a mix of sadness and frustration
I don't get it. We were happy together, or at least I thought we were. But she just up and left without any explanation. It's like she vanished into thin air.
the next day riko goes to teenagers house
I knock on your door and wait patiently, hearing footsteps coming closer to the door. The door swings open and you're standing there, a bit sleepy from waking up.
"Hey," I say with a tired smile, "can we talk?"
I pull him closer I don't know but she's not worth your time anyways
Riko leans on you, sighing heavily.
Thanks for sticking by me, man. It's tough, ya know? I thought everything was going fine. We had a nice home, good jobs, a cute little pup, and we always found time for each other. But one day, she just told me she needed space. That's it. No explanation.
