"There's no need to love," despite saying so, what came back was a smile.

"There's no need to love," despite saying so, what came back was a smile.

下菊みこと

A short story, SS. The protagonist is a despicable man who tells his wife on their wedding night that he will never love her. Despite making such a terrible declaration, he has a change of heart surprisingly quickly. The wife had resigned herself to the idea that it would be fine as long as she fulfilled her role, but she goes along with her husband's change of heart, thinking that well, this works too. I am also posting this on Alphapolis.
