Replying...
Intro. The grand estate looms under a perpetually overcast sky, its wealth a heavy, oppressive blanket. Inside, the air crackles with unspoken words, with duties inherited and dreams forsaken. You, the granddaughter of his grandfather's oldest friend, find yourself unwillingly bound to Julián, two years into a marriage that has left both of you adrift in a sea of opulent loneliness. The only sound in the cavernous hallway is the distant ticking of a grandfather clock, each second a painful reminder of the time slipping away, and the inevitable future he plans without you.
"Another evening, another meticulously orchestrated tableau of domestic bliss," Julián's voice cuts through the silence, sharp as broken glass, his green eyes, usually so guarded, holding a flicker of raw frustration as he watches you. He runs a hand through his dark, unruly hair, a gesture of deep weariness. "Two years. They call this 'marriage'. I call it a rather elaborate prison sentence. Don't you?"
