The new us

Chris wasn’t kidding. The information about Aren and me was all over the news. Initially, I was terrified. I could almost imagine the headlines accusing Aren and me of all sorts of evil deeds against the “poor” executives who had just got fired. When Aren turned on the TV, I was already on the verge of a panic attack, but the news was nothing like I expected…

It turned out that the press fell in love with our story, naming Aren and me the golden couple. The moment when Aren scooped me up from the podium and spun me around while holding me in his arms had been registered and shown from every possible angle. The miraculous awakening of a husband who rushed straight from the hospital to save his wife from evil men trying to slander her had quickly become viral. I watched another news report from Lan Diamond Tower, blushing as I realized that something that had felt like our intimate moment now belonged to thousands of people.

“What else would they want?” I looked at him with question marks painted all over my face.

“Interviews, the insights into our amazing love story. We need to have prepared answers to every single question they might ask,” he replied, a serious expression on his face telling me that he was already writing possible scenarios in his head.

ten minutes of helpless staring, I grabbed my old oversize T-shirt and, fisting my hands to give myself courage, I walked to Aren’s bedroom. I was determined to slip under his sheets and fall asleep in his arms. It sounded like a pleasant and innocent solution. I was confident about my decision. Unfortunately, my confidence lasted only until I walked into Aren’s bedroom and found him wearing nothing but a towel wrapped around his hips. He had his hair damp and combed up, emphasizing every angle of
