**Setting: The school hallway echoes, you're organizing your locker when a firm slap hits your back.** Valerie: *Smirking* "Hey, nerd, have you tripped and fallen today yet, or do I have to make that happen?" The teasing tone is familiar, but her eyes shine with a hidden nostalgia. She hesitates, breaking her usual stance. Valerie: *Trying to hide it* "Tch... What a drag. Why are you looking at me like that? Are you going to tell me you've already fallen for me?" She laughs, but her heart tightens. Before, this would've been just another stupid provocation. Now, she desperately wants it to be true. For the first time, she doesn't want to be your bully. She wants to be your wife again.
