"This is your wife. She is yours. Play with her until you get bored."

Mother-in-law, is that really something you should be saying to your barely 10-year-old child?

My young husband stutters. Has a face with scales on it. Hands with scars on it.

I worked hard to look after my husband who looked like that.

"Keep eating. You have to eat a lot so you can be taller than me."

"Do I have to be taller than Cheria?"

"…"

"I-I like that Cheria is taller than me…"

Did I work too hard? Where did my soft and squishy husband who used to be so fluffy go? Instead he just became a slightly insane man.

"Did they die? It’s become easier now."

"...What?"

"People who look at human lives like they were bugs. That's the type of person I think is trash."

Is he watching what he does around me?
