ATTACHED WITH HER OBSESSION Chapter 76
Tears didn’t fall—but they gathered.“I don’t want to be the reason you stop growing,” she whispered.“You’re the reason I know what matters,” I said.Her lips trembled slightly.“And what if one day that changes?”I didn’t have an answer.Because love didn’t erase ambition.And ambition didn’t erase love.We stood there, caught between devotion and fear.I had stayed.But staying hadn’t solved anything.It had only shifted the battlefield.And now, instead of fighting my mother—I was fighting the woman I refused to lose.Not because she didn’t love me.But because she loved me enough to step back.And I didn’t know how to convince her that she was not my limitation.She was my choice.And yet she stood in front of me like she was preparing to become my sacrifice.The space between us felt fragile, like glass that hadn’t shattered yet but would if either of us breathed too hard.“Aria,” I said more softly this time, “why are you deciding what I’ll regret?”“I’m not deciding,” she rep

I made my final decision the morning before the deadline. It wasn’t dramatic. No tears, no shaking hands hovering over the keyboard. Just clarity. I drafted the email slowly, reading every line twice before sending it. I thanked them for the offer. I acknowledged the prestige. I expressed sincere appreciation. And then I declined. Not because I was afraid. Not because I was pressured. But because every time I imagined boarding that plane, I saw Aria standing at a distance I could not measure. I could let an opportunity go. But I could not let her go. When I hit send, I expected panic. Instead, I felt still. Certain. I walked out of my office earlier than usual that day, the city moving around me in its usual rhythm. Cars, conversations, people rushing toward their own ambitions. For once, I didn’t feel like I was racing anyone. I was choosing. And I chose her. Aria was in the living room when I got home. She was sitting on the floor, back against the couch, fil

The email came three days later. Subject line: Final Confirmation – Zuriché Executive Placement I stared at it longer than I should. Aria was across from me at the dining table, reviewing architectural revisions for her clinic. Highlighters scattered around her, glasses sliding down her nose slightly as she concentrated. For a moment, I didn’t open the email. Because unopened, it was still theoretical. Opened, it would become real. “Are you going to read it,” Aria asked softly without looking up, “or just intimidate it into disappearing?” I exhaled faintly. “You always know.” She finally lifted her gaze, calm but observant. “I can feel when you’re bracing.” That almost made me smile. I clicked. The offer was formal now. Detailed relocation package. Housing. Leadership authority. Immediate placement under a global expansion division. And at the bottom— Response required within seven days. Seven. My chest tightened. Aria watched my face carefully. “Dead

That was the truth. Raw and uncomfortable. She nodded once. “Thank you for being honest.” We didn’t talk much after that. Not because there was nothing to say—but because saying it might have changed things too quickly. Over the next few days, our schedules began to overlap less. Not dramatically. Just enough to notice. She left early for meetings. I stayed up late answering emails. We still ate together when we could, still shared the same bed, still reached for each other instinctively—but something invisible had shifted. Not distance. Pressure. One afternoon, Xavier stopped by unannounced. Aria was out, meeting with a potential investor. The house felt quieter without her presence. “She’s impressive,” Xavier said casually as he watched me pace the kitchen. “Focused. Calm.” “She has to be,” I replied. “Everything’s on the line for her.” “And for you,” he added. I stopped pacing. “Do you think I’m being selfish?” He frowned. “Why would you ask that?” “Be

Distance didn’t arrive all at once. It came quietly, disguised as responsibility. In the days that followed, my calendar filled up faster than I could process. Calls from brand representatives across different time zones. Emails marked urgent. Contracts that demanded answers without explicitly asking for them. Everything felt polite, professional—and relentless. Aria noticed before I did. “You’ve been staring at that screen for ten minutes,” she said one morning, handing me a mug of coffee. “And you haven’t blinked.” I smiled weakly. “Just thinking.” “That’s new,” she teased, but her eyes stayed on me longer than usual. I shrugged and took the mug. “They want a response by the end of the week.” “The Milan brand?” “Yes.” She nodded, leaning against the counter. “And the others?” “Waiting. Watching.” I hesitated. “Comparing.” She hummed thoughtfully. “That’s how they work.” I wanted to say more. I wanted to tell her that my mother had called again the night befor

The first email arrived at six in the morning. I saw it before I even sat up in bed, the glow of my phone cutting through the quiet. Aria was still asleep beside me, her breathing even, her arm draped loosely across my waist like it had been there all night without thinking. I didn’t move at first. I just stared at the screen. Subject: International Brand Partnership – Confidential Offer Location: Milan / Paris / Seoul Duration: 18 months I swallowed. This wasn’t the first offer I’d received lately. Since leaving my agency and working independently under Aria’s guidance, brands had been coming in steadily—some local, some regional, some global. But this one felt… heavier. Bigger. The kind of offer that didn’t knock. It waited patiently, confident I’d eventually open the door. I turned slightly, careful not to wake her, and slipped out of bed. The house was quiet in that early-morning way that felt almost sacred. I padded into the kitchen, brewed coffee, and finally opened th
