I married my husband after a workplace romance, but back then he was a newcomer, and now he's actually my husband's subordinate. The other day, my husband invited him over to our house. While sharing dinner and drinks, my husband suddenly got up and asked him if he wasn't planning to get married. Then he honestly confessed, "I still love Chisato (that's me)." Back when I was still working, he had actually confessed to me before. But at the time, he was still young, and I was already dating my husband, so I turned him down. As I struggled with how to respond, my husband returned and asked if it was okay to invite him over again the next day. Smiling, I said, "Sure, that's fine," and handed him a lunchbox. A few days later, my husband suddenly announced an urgent business trip—and at the same time, I received a message from him asking, "Can I come over to your place?"
