Romance
The day I got promoted, I could barely contain my excitement as I told my boyfriend the good news.Instead of celebrating with me, he suddenly went quiet. His eyes fixed on the wall behind me as if he were staring at something I could not see."Sunny, I think I can see something."He lowered his voice, putting on an air of mystery and concern. Then, as if to prove what he was seeing was real, he reached over and gently turned my head toward the wall, so I was looking in the same direction.There was nothing there, just a blank wall.I stared at him in confusion, but his expression suddenly grew tense."It says you shouldn't take the position at the new office."If you go, you'll get caught up in a serious scandal. Your reputation will be ruined, and you'll end up jumping from a building."I almost laughed at how absurd it sounded, but despite myself, I still asked what I was supposed to do if I wanted to avoid such a terrible future.His eyes immediately lit up."It's obvious. We need to get married as soon as possible."You should have a baby sooner rather than later, then put your savings and promotion bonus into our joint account. Look, that's exactly what it says here…"He smiled at me with such warmth and certainty that, for a moment, it almost sounded like he was doing all of this for my sake."I'll make sure you're happy for the rest of your life."My fingers tightened around my phone until my knuckles turned white.Because twenty minutes earlier, I had come across a post on an online relationship forum.[How do I get my more successful, stronger-willed girlfriend, who believes in astrology and spiritual signs, to finally do what I want?]
