I ended up marrying the bully who made my life miserable in high school. When we met through a blind date, he acted as if he didn't know me, and I played along. I was under pressure from my parents to settle down, and objectively speaking, he was a strong match. told myself we could start over as strangers. After the wedding, he treated me with remarkable kindness. Life was so good that I often found myself questioning reality. I wondered if this attentive and gentle man was the same person who once shoved me down a flight of stairs. He remembered my favorite foods, cooked for me when I worked late, and held me through sleepless nights. Yey, the more perfect he seemed, the more unsettling it felt. One weekend, everything changed. His phone died, and he asked me to set an alarm for him. While unlocking it, I accidentally opened his notes. At the very top was an entry from three years ago. It was only a single line, but it was enough to make me tremble.
