    After the ice melted and we got married, I thought he was naturally indifferent. When we were together, his eyes rarely held warmth, his words were always bland, and his responses seemed superficial. It was as if only I harbored passion in the home. I tried repeatedly to get closer, but was blocked by that invisible wall of indifference, and my heart gradually grew cold. That stormy night, thunder ripped through the sky, and lightning illuminated the windowpane. I was awakened from my sleep by a muffled thud. I followed the sound and found him curled up in the corner of the study, his usually straight back bent, trembling as he hugged himself tightly, like a puppy abandoned on the street. The dim light outlined the tear tracks on his face, and his usually deep, unfathomable eyes were now filled with panic and sorrow, a sense of brokenness overwhelming me. My heart ached with pity, and I gently called to him as I approached. The moment he looked up, he panicked like a frightened deer, as if afraid of being seen in this vulnerable state. When he saw it was me, his tense defenses relaxed, and he stammered, "When I was little, whenever it thundered, I was always alone... In the dark, so scared." His voice choked with emotion, and his once hardened exterior crumbled. From then on, I understood. His indifference was a disguise, hiding a past riddled with wounds. The fears he had endured alone, the fears he had been ignored, had turned him into a "sad little dog" afraid to reveal his true feelings. I wish that in the years to come, I can build him a warm nest of love, so that in tenderness, he can relearn to embrace warmth and bloom with joy.
