made of lies
Synopsis In the fifth year of our marriage, I met my husband as he had been at eighteen.

As soon as possible.” He paused, then added with a frown, “I can’t bear the thought of my future self marrying a woman he doesn’t even love.” I nodded and agreed. Then I began, quietly and without drawing attention, to distance myself from Julian Hayes. Until one day, I left the studio early and came home in advance. Just as I reached the door, I heard violent sounds of fighting from inside. “You’re spreading lies about me? You little bastard—do you really think thirty-three-year-old me can’t see through what eighteen-year-old me is plotting?” A younger voice roared back in fury: “You’re already old! What gives you the right to hog such a good life?” “I hate the ten-years-later version of myself! Go die!!” Me: “?”
