Damien Norris, the cold and unattainable man every woman chased after, ended up with me, the so-called well-behaved girl. People said Damien was too aloof, not the type to care about anyone, and that someone like me could never handle him. But after three years together, he's always treated me just as well as he did from the very beginning. The guy who was never supposed to be thoughtful would drive all over the city just because I mentioned I wanted a cupcake. He even showed up at my door in the middle of the night. When I was on my period, he'd cancel all his meetings and take a red-eye flight back home, just to keep my stomach warm. I told him it wasn't worth it. He'd hold me tight, his chin resting on my shoulder. "For you, Cora, it's always worth it." Back then, I truly believed we'd be together forever. But then one day, I overheard him talking to someone else. "Damien, you and Cora have been together for years now. Isn't it about time you got married? Make sure to invite us to the wedding." Damien was sprawled out on the couch, legs crossed, looking completely indifferent. "Marriage? Our relationship is just for fun," he replied.
