Jay sat at his desk in his home office, surrounded by piles of papers and a never-ending to-do list. His work consumed him, leaving little time for anything else. Bella, his love, was just as busy with her new job. They had both ventured into new chapters of their lives, hoping to achieve their dreams. Jay is successful in making Taylor hate him.

Weeks went by, the days blending into one another. Jay occasionally caught glimpses of Bella amidst their hectic schedules. They would exchange quick hellos and smiles, longing for a moment more, but time always slipped away.

As days turned into weeks, Jay began to notice a change in Bella's behavior. She seemed distant, her normally vibrant eyes filled with sadness. His heart ached to see her like this, but his own workload kept him from digging deeper.

One evening, as Jay returned home from a long day at the office, he noticed something out of place. The apartment felt eerily quiet. He called out Bella's name, but there was no response. Panic gripped his chest as he searched every room, only to realize that Bella's personal belongings were gone.

Confusion overwhelmed Jay as he discovered a note on the kitchen counter, hastily scribbled in Bella's handwriting. It read:

"Jay, I'm sorry. I can't do this anymore. Our love feels like a distant memory, overshadowed by our busy lives. I need time to find myself again. Please understand."
His heart shattered into a million pieces. How could he not have noticed that Bella was hurting?

Days turned into weeks, and Jay battled a mix of grief, regret, and anger. But deep down, he understood Bella's need for freedom. He knew that somewhere along the way, they had lost sight of what truly mattered – love and connection.

Taylor is busy in the kitchen, preparing a delicious meal. Jay is sitting at the dining table, looking sad.

Taylor: (smiling) Jay, I made your favorite dish! It's almost ready.

Jay: (sighs) Thanks, Taylor. But I'm just not in the mood for food right now.

Taylor: (concerned) Jay, you've been sad for a while now. Is there something bothering you?

Jay: (hesitant) It's just... work has been tough lately. I feel overwhelmed.

Taylor knew that something is happening between him and his mistress. Maybe Bella is right! I must try to win Jay's heart so he can forget his mistress.

Taylor: I understand, Jay. But remember, we're in this together. Let's find a way to bring some happiness into our lives.

After few weeks.

Taylor and Jay sit on the couch, sipping tea.

Taylor: I've been thinking, Jay. Maybe we should try doing something fun together. Something that will make us both happy.
