Ma Jia looked at me and said, "Seeing you work late every day makes me worried. I've decided to move in with you."
I blinked, "Move... move in?"
"Yes," Ma Jia put down the mop and walked up to me. "This way, I can take care of you."
"That's not..." I looked at him, "Why didn't you discuss this with me first?"
"Isn't this for your own good?"
Ma Jia smiled and ruffled my hair, "Alright, go take a shower. I'll run the bath for you."
After saying that, Ma Jia walked into the bathroom.
I watched his back, feeling a mix of emotions. Ma Jia had already made this place his home. My room had been tidied up by him as well.
I stood by the window, looking at the night view outside, my mind in a jumble.
Ma Jia came over and hugged me from behind, "Stop daydreaming and go take a shower."
I held his hand and said, " Ma Jia, can we discuss things before you make decisions in the future?"
Ma Jia chuckled, "I'm doing this for your own good."
"But..." I looked at him, "Don't you think you're being unreasonable?"
"Unreasonable?" Ma Jia feigned innocence, "How am I being unreasonable?"
"You just moved in without discussing anything with me."
"Have you ever thought about my feelings?"
Ma Jia put away her smile.
"Your feelings? Haven't you always wanted to get married? What I'm doing is also for us to get married sooner."
"Yes, I do want to get married," I looked at him, "but the premise of marriage is mutual consent, not just what you all say goes."
Ma Jia frowned, "We? Who's we?"
"Your family, my family." I looked at him, "We've been together for two years, and they have been making decisions for us—where to take wedding photos, which hotel to book, how many guests to invite, and even the style of the invitations. Have they ever asked for our opinions?"
Ma Jia patted my shoulder, "They're doing this for our own good."
"Really?" I looked at him, "Are they really doing this for us? They're just fulfilling their own wishes."
Ma Jia didn't say anything; she just quietly looked at me.
"I'm tired," I said, "I think it's better for us to take a break for a while."
Ma Jia's body stiffened, "What did you say?"
"I said..." I looked at him, "let's take a break."
"Jiang Yue!" Ma Jia said sharply, "We've already met each other's parents, the hotel is booked, and friends and family have been notified. You're telling me now that you want to break up?"
"Yes." I looked at him, "I don't know what's wrong with me. I just don't want to live this kind of life anymore."
"Jiang Yue..." Ma Jia grasped my shoulder, "You can't be so willful!"
"I'm not being willful." I looked at him, "I just want to live for myself once."
"For yourself?" Ma Jia scoffed, "Aren't you living for me?"
"I don't want to talk to you anymore." I pushed him away and returned to my room.
I closed the door and locked it.
I leaned against the door, tears streaming down uncontrollably.
Why?
Why am I in such a predicament?
The next day when I woke up, Ma Jia had already moved all his things out.
I texted him, but he didn't reply.
We fell into a cold war like this.
I didn't understand what had happened between us.
We used to be so close.
But now, we had become like this.
I was so tired.
I didn't know how to break this deadlock.
I decided to focus on my career.
I followed my colleagues to learn,
pushing aside various trivial matters,
and my efficiency indeed improved a lot.
While working overtime at night, I occasionally ran into Xiao Huai.
However, I hadn't ridden in his car again.
