Fall out, Fall in.

Prologue

Date: (Present) May 15, 2019. The day they decided to break apart.

A marriage for 4 and a half years isn't something to be boasted to others. Although, in their case, the fact that both of them decided to keep their marriage despite having numerous misunderstanding and quarrels is somewhat to be proud for.

Devon and Bonnie Kim has been living in the same routine over and over again. Every morning, they wake up, eat breakfast, and say goodbye to each other without even having a proper conversation. They go to their same old work every day. At night after their work, they go back to the same old 35 square-meter house they live in, have small talks, and again say goodnight to each other without even knowing how each other's day went.

Devon worked as a regular company employee in a well-known company. While, Bonnie is working as an assistant architect. They aren't well-off but they aren't poor either. They earn enough to afford their necessities and eat at least 3 times a day.

As someone who has been known and admired for his whole existence in the university, Devon thought that being in a so-so job, having an average salary, and a dysfunctional marriage, he was not able to achieve what he had dreamed of. He did not deserve any of that, he thought. Sure his wife is pretty and smart but that doesn't mean he is having the best of his marriage life.

Bonnie has the same thought as her husband. She isn't even living the best of her life either. She has to put up with all the "wife chores" all day long. Sometimes, even her husband demands her to do extra things just because she's the "wife" and it's part of her duty as well. In addition to this, she has her work too, how can she even manage to do things at once? somehow, the four-armed folk from Ben 10 has popped inside her mind.

Her husband works from 8'o clock in the morning up until 8'o clock in the evening. Sometimes, Devon even finishes up until midnight when they have so many things to do in the office. Meanwhile, Bonnie, as an architect's assistant, only work from 8'o clock up until 5'o clock in the afternoon. With her husband's work time, of course we all know who has the better salary.

As a result, she do all the work at home too. Cleaning, cooking, washing, laundry, name it all she does it.

As time pass by, both Devon and Bonnie are becoming more and more agitated with each other. Quarrels got bigger overtime and they begin to completely not care about each other's day and all. They both thought that talking with each other means fighting too.

Devon's side talks how he does all the work and how he had been working to feed Bonnie and buy their necessities. That he had been tired for all of it. He just wants Bonnie to understand his situation too. Need not to be someone who talks shit and who only shout at him for being too lazy at home. Well, to begin with, the only time he don't do things and laze around is when he is at home. Of course! that's the only time he gets to relax and be cared by someone. But this lady he has been living with is too noisy and talkative. He always takes the blame for every wrong thing in the house.

Bonnie, on the other hand, argues how self-centered her husband is to talk how he feeds her. He really is lazy and does not even help with any chores at home. As a wife, it would be really lovely if you share your burdens with your husband, she thought. Bonnie really is jealous to the other wives she knows. They got a really handsome, sexy understanding, dependable, and passionate husband. Not that Devon is not handsome and sexy but still all she got for a husband is a freaking lazy guy.

As they grew apart every single day, their so-so marriage also to breaks apart little by little. It was not long for it to completely break apart.

It was just a normal day before they got home themselves. The exhaustion of Bonnie and Devon had caused a big ruckus for the night. Both of them have been doing overtime in their own jobs. It was really late at night and Devon hasn't eaten anything yet. As soon both of them got into their home, hell started that day.

"I'm too freaking tired to deal with you Bonnie! You and your big mouth! My god, I just asked you to cook why do you even have to freaking fight with me! I'm really tired in this stupid marriage. If only you weren't the one I married maybe I would be living my life as what I imagined. I should have married my first crush or girlfriend instead of you Bon! Maybe they aren't like you who uses her mouth to much to blame her husband ," Devon shouted on the top of his lungs. He really can't deal with any of their foolish marriage anymore. He really exploded this time.

"That's the problem with you Von! You don't even realize that I'm freaking tired as well! Not everyone revolves around you! I work too Von, I feed myself so don't you even tell me that you're the only one working and that my existence is just a burden to you because I do all the work in this house without you even helping you lazy freaking guy! Fine, I shout at you most of the time because of how frustrated I am to have a self-centered husband like you. I thought the same too, maybe if you were not the one I married, I would feel like a queen now. I don't think this relationship of ours is working anymore, Von," She argued like a mad woman. This is the only time her emotions get ahead of her. She was on the verge of crying because of being too annoyed, tired, and down at the same time because of their fucked-up relationship.

"Let's get divorced" Both of them stated at the same time. Devon sighed while a tear on Bonnie's eyes fell. As they intensely looked at each other's eyes, lingering feelings and mixed emotions filled up the atmosphere around them. It's real, Everything is now over.
