Time didn’t rush anymore.

It didn’t drag either. It simply moved—steady, deliberate, almost kind. Months passed without me noticing the exact moment when chaos stopped defining my days. I only realized it one quiet morning, standing in the kitchen with sunlight warming the counter, when Aria hummed softly while reading emails beside me. No tension. No urgency clawing at my chest. Just rhythm.

Life had settled into something real.

My career, once dangling by a fragile thread, was blooming aga

  • ATTACHED WITH HER OBSESSION   Chapter 79

    The door slammed behind me, but I didn’t hear it. Or maybe I did—and my mind just refused to register it. Everything felt… muted. Like the world had been wrapped in something thick and suffocating, dulling every sound except the one thing that wouldn’t stop echoing inside my head. That image. Him. Her. I walked blindly. I didn’t even remember grabbing my keys. I didn’t remember stepping outside. The only thing I was aware of was the way my chest felt like it was being torn open, breath by breath. I couldn’t think. I couldn’t process. I couldn’t even cry properly. It was like my body didn’t know how to react to that kind of pain. My phone buzzed in my hand. Xavier. I stared at the screen for a second before answering. “Hello?” My voice came out uneven, barely there. “Ena? Where are you?” His tone shifted immediately. “You don’t sound okay.” I laughed weakly, but it broke halfway through. “I’m… driving.” There was a pause. “Driving where?” “I don’t know,” I admitted.

    I cried myself to sleep. And when I woke up the next day, everything seems gloomy. I get up and hurried to where Aria has been sleeping for the past months, the guest room. I opened the door aggressively but she wasn't there. It was just her lauggae piling up near her bed. She really is going. The realization didn’t hit all at once. It crept in slowly, settling deep in my chest until it became something I couldn’t ignore. I stepped inside the room. The bed was neatly made. Too neat. No sign that she slept there last night, even though I knew she did. The air still carried her scent, faint but familiar, and it made my chest ache even more. Her luggage sat by the corner, zipped, ready. Prepared like she had been planning this longer than I thought. I walked toward it slowly, my fingers brushing against the handle. Cold. Still. Final. “So this is it,” I whispered to myself. No answer. Of course, there wouldn’t be. I stood there for a while, staring at the room t

    Later, alone in the living room, I sat in the dim light and finally understood the depth of her fear.She didn’t doubt my love. She doubted permanence. She believed ambition and devotion could coexist—But not without consequence.And she was trying to absorb that consequence before it could hurt me. The problem was—It was already hurting me.I had stayed because she was my choice. But now I had to convince her that I wasn’t trapped. That I wasn’t diminished. That loving her didn’t feel like loss. Because if she kept stepping back, If she kept convincing herself she was temporary, then the only thing that would disappear— was us.And I wasn't wrong. A month had passed and Aria barely talks to me anymore. The last conversation that we had was about her decision to pursue her research abroad and postponing her clinic opening.It hurt me— not because I choose to stay but because she doesn't trust that I could still bloom here. With her.She planned so much about her career and she wanted

    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

    So instead of leaving, I stayed.Aria looked tense but she assured me that she’ll handle this. And although I was unsure, I chose to trust her.I don’t understand why Martha would do this. She knows better than this… she’s been known in the industry for how many years now and yet, she decided to ri

    After eating, I busied myself with the dishes. The sound of running water filled the kitchen, steady and grounding, even as my thoughts drifted elsewhere. I scrubbed the same plate longer than necessary, staring at nothing in particular, pretending the clench in my chest wasn’t there. I felt her

    Aria’s hesitation lasted only a second. But it was enough.Martha noticed it too—I could tell by the way her eyes sharpened, the subtle satisfaction that flickered across her face before she masked it with concern.“I don’t want to intrude,” Martha said lightly, stepping just one foot inside the do

    The hallway felt longer than it should have.Every step away from Aria’s door echoed louder in my chest than on the floor, like the house itself was counting my retreat. I didn’t look back. I knew if I did, I’d stay. Or worse—say something I couldn’t take back.The night air outside was cooler than
