"You need to buy this, dear." Sachilin stated.
"And this, this, this, this, this. That one, too."
Her eyes shining, pointing at the pastel green necktie. Almost everyone was looking at them.
Nyxta is wearing a black fabric mask that's resting under his nose, while Sachilin didn't have to. She's wearing a full-face makeup, making it look like she is a completely different person.
"Lilin, don't you think you've bought too much for me? I thought, we are gonna shop together?"
He carefully asked, clearly don't want her to be offended.
However, Sachilin simply waved her hand at him.
"I will buy, if I saw something fascinating and nice." She replied, not even looking at him.
The shopping clerk who's looking and listening at them from a distance, showed a disgusted face.
"I actually thought he's handsome. Never knew he is such a soft boy fulfilling some rich girl's needs for money."
Nyxta's eyes became slightly cold. He doesn't mind that much, since it's not true anyways.
But Sachilin turned into something he never expected her to be...
Sachilin dropped the necktie's case at the table, loudly. Many people that's near was shocked at her. It created a loud thud.
"What did you said about my husband?" She asked the clerk. Frowning and lips in thin line, looking so intimidating.
"My husband is a soft boy, fulfill some rich girl's needs, you said?" She walked slowly, arriving at the front of the clerk. With a roughly 1.76m height, she's surely above average, towering the now scared sales clerk.
"Do you even know how much my husband earned everyday, miss? " Sachilin scoffed.
"He," she pointed at Nyxta. "earns ten times more of your decade's salary. And I am buying many of his things right now, because he only want to earn money and buy me unnecessary things that he think I would like and not even charge his phone properly." She said and smirked.
Nyxta never expected her to be this triggered. He knows how calm and collected she is. Although, no one's recording, he is still worried for his little fiance, so he went to her and hugged her waist from the side, affectionately.
"That's enough, dear. Calm down." He whispered and kissed the top of her head.
"No, she's clearly insulting you, Vin. That's not right!" She exclaimed
"Dearest, we know what she said isn't true. It's alright."
"I shouldn't have brought anything from here. They can insult and talk bad about me, but NOT you, NOT my husband." She ruffled her hair frustratingly. Nyxta smiled at her words and how her obvious british accent is showing when she's pissed.
"You know what, call Kuya Garry. Let him handle this. Or else, I will have this shop closed right now, or any minute. " She said.
Nyxta sighed and took his phone to call his Fiance's Butler.

"I'm sorry." Sachilin apologized.
They are currently at the car, waiting for the lined cars to go on.
Nyxta glanced at her face and smiled.
"Why are you saying sorry?"
She looked away. "I created a mess earlier. "
Nyxta ruffled her hair, affectionately. He knew how strict Sachilin is to herself. She sets certain standards to surpass.
"You did nothing wrong. Besides, aren't you my wife? You can always make trouble for me to take care of. Although, we aren't married yet, you should just be yourself." He intertwined their hands as he manoeuvred the car into the drive-thru.
"But I was being petty. I knew it's not true but decided to fight more."
Nyxta patiently listened to her worries.
"Look, dearest, you can be as childish and petty as you want. As long as you're contented with it."
Sachi pouted. "You're spoiling me too much." She mumbled, scanning through the fast food's menu.
"I need to pamper you, or else, who will? You're too professional, you need some relaxation too."
He replied.
"Good Afternoon. May I take your order?" The cashier asked politely, from the speaker.
"Two chicken sandwiches and two extra large Fries. You want some drinks, dear?" He asked, Sachilin.
"We can share, then water."
"Alright. You heard her." He said through the speaker.
The girl repeated their orders and instructed them to come fetch it after a turn.
Sachilin scrolled through her phone, checking her social media accounts and personal emails.
"There's this movie I wanna manage. I like the storyline, although it didn't have a big production team."
Nyxta listened attentively, while waiting for their orders to arrive.
"You can go for it, dear. I'm sure you can balance your job and self rest, quite good."
"Vin?"
Nyxta turned to her with a confused expression.
"Hmmn?"
"Were you always like this? Uh, with your ex?" She paused and tilted her head, sideways. "I just don't get it. Why would she cheat on you? You're literally, a husband material."
She mumbled, which Nyxta heard clearly.
"She doesn't like commitments. Or maybe, she never loved me, in the first place. She was so happy when the man she cheated with, proposed to her." He answered truthfully.
"Why wouldn't she marry you? Anyways, I'm already so lucky to be your fiance."
She shrugged, oblivious that her words made Nyxta promise to himself.
Promise that he will forever cherish her.
"I asked her multiple times about getting married. I even proposed personally, kneeling, with a ring and all. She said she wasn't ready yet. When I asked for the third time with her giving me the same answer, I thought, 'will you ever be ready?'. I mentioned it two more times after and eventually gave up."
Sachilin nodded. This made her pissed with that woman.
"Unfortunately, the man she loves only wants to kill me that he used her." Nyxta scoffed as he watched Sachilin's reaction, studying it.
He can see how pissed Sachilin is and forcing herself to calm down. She might look like she's very calm at the outside, but he can tell by her simple actions. She's tugging the car's window button and playing it with her long nails.
"You don't have to refrain yourself, Qia." He coerced, caressing her other hand.
Sachilin spaced out, repeating his words at her mind as her eyes widened, shocked at how he can read her expressions like nothing.
"H-how--?"
She knew better than others how expert she is at hiding her real expressions and keeping a calm face at any situations.
"You can read me like an open book, Lin. I knew that. I might be able to read some of your body language but not your emotions. Probably, just a good observer?"
"You never fail to surprise me, dearest. You do know that, don't you?"
Nyxta smiled lovingly at her.
"I'll be with you throughout the battles. 'Cause I know you will be there for me, too. We have each other's backs." He said.
"S-Sir.. your order." The woman stuttered, mesmerized by his physical features.
Nyxta, however, blankly grabbed the paper bags.
The window only showed space for Nyxta's handsome face, blocking the woman's view of Sachilin leaning comfortably at the passenger seat.
"Are you, by chance. S-single?" She asked shyly.
Nyxta showed her left hand. He's wearing the matching couple rings they bought back at Munich.
"Married." He replied shortly.
While arranging the paper bags for his fiance, the woman again spoke.
"She doesn't have to know.."
Nyxta sighed, exhausted. His tongue poking his inner cheek.
He lowered the windshield more, showing his fiance's legs that is currently resting at his thighs.
"Wife, can you talk to her? I am running out of patience." He mumbled.
Sachilin peeped at the sideways, still holding both of her and Nyxta's phone.
"People like you is one of the reasons why many kids got bullied because their parents are separated. Wrecking families, really?"
She mocked and grabbed the sandwiches and water, placing all of the foods at the car's dashboard.
The woman's eyes widened seeing Sachilin's face. If she had known Nyxta's wife is this pretty, she won't even bother ask if he's single. There's no way she can surpass a beauty like Sachilin's.
The speechless woman walked away, embarrassed of her actions.
"That was deep, dear." Nyxta chuckled.
"Nah, I'm hungry. Why did she have to stop me from eating my foodies?" She childishly scoffed.
Nyxta heartily laughed at her fiance's cuteness.
It's been so long since he felt so genuinely happy. Like, wholesome happy. Used to the public's opinion of him being a cold and ruthless businessman, he already forgot how to live a normal life without reviewing his files while eating his meals and not taking care of himself properly.
All his life, past and present, he was never this carefree. Not minding what people think of him as a person and just being a normal individual.
He died at the age of 31, turning 32 at his past life, alone. No wife, No children. No good and treasured memories to hold on to.
Nyxta's smile however slowly vanished as his sight fell into someone. A very familiar feminine built. Although not as perfect figure his Fiance has, it's already above average physique.
Sachilin saw his cold and revengeful eyes. She turned, looking at where he was staring with such heavy aura.
Her eyes widened a bit as Nyxta's words replayed through her mind. How he suffered, and died painfully.
"Sarena.." she mumbled.
