I wake to the smell of frying eggs. My girlfriend, Su Chuxia, wears an apron, her smile warmer than the sun. She remembers every little thing I like and keeps my life running smoothly. To everyone, she is the perfect girlfriend, and I think so too.
Until I discover that her “love” leaves no room to breathe:
We share phone locations, she knows all my social media passwords, and she turns down every “unnecessary” invitation on my behalf, especially those involving other women.
I think it is just the possessiveness of someone deeply in love, until after a department welcome dinner, I glance back as the door closes and catch the look she has not yet managed to hide: cold, appraising, and possessive enough to send a chill down my spine.
And the words she murmurs like a dream while nestled against me, “No one can take you away,” make me realize that this seemingly warm and sweet life together has long since become a cage she carefully built.
When I try to see the truth behind her tenderness, I discover in despair that her control runs far deeper and wider than I ever imagined... Am I the boyfriend she loves, or a one-of-a-kind possession she will never let anyone else covet?
Shamelessly give yourself a five-star review 😄😄
