<h2>An unknown woman came on board.</h2>
It was the day he returned from his second trip. A woman in her 40s was hanging around in front of the elevator at her apartment. I thought she was someone I had never seen before, but I got on the elevator as it was. She got in with me.
 &#8216;I felt like she was trying to kill me. She said in a low voice, &#8216;You must be Karin, right? I quickly said, &#8216;No, I&#8217;m not.&#8217; I got off at my place of residence, and she followed me. I said, &#8216;I&#8217;m calling the police. and she suddenly pushed me out of the way. I clung to her feet and took one of her shoes from her.

A neighbor heard the commotion and called 110. She was taken to the hospital by ambulance because she had hit her head.
 &#8220;When I came to, I found him sitting by the bed. It took me a while to figure out what had happened. He looked at me and said one word: &#8216;I don&#8217;t want you to report the damage. Not even a word about whether I was okay. Oh, I understood that it was all about protecting my wife and myself rather than my physical condition.&#8221;
She was not injured, returned to work after only one day off, and everyone around her seemed to be unaware of the incident. He, too, was unaware of the incident. A few days later, in an empty conference room during lunch break, he handed her one million yen under the guise of &#8220;medical expenses. When I asked him if he meant that he was paying me to keep quiet except for the medical expenses, he said, &#8220;Because I caused you trouble.&#8221; He did not mention his wife, but just bowed his head and said, &#8220;I&#8217;m sorry.&#8221; I was disappointed that I had fallen in love with such a person. At the same time, he felt the &#8220;validity of the marriage certificate&#8221; and the &#8220;strength of his wife&#8217;s position.
<h2>He sarcastically said as best he could, &#8220;One of us went home barefoot, I guess.&#8221;</h2>
 &#8216;A few days later, I gave him a bag of his wife&#8217;s shoes that I had taken from him that day. He glanced inside and said he was sorry. I sarcastically asked him if one of them went home barefoot, and he left without a word.&#8221;
The man Karin knew was gone. We had talked so much, hugged so much, and thought we had shared everything&#8230;. I felt uneasy. I thought about exposing him to the company, but then I realized that I was putting myself in danger. I didn&#8217;t want to lose my job.
She is from a rural area, and her mother lives alone in her hometown. She still had scholarship money to repay. She couldn&#8217;t afford to be unemployed.
 For the next six months, I thoroughly rebelled against him at work. I had been working very hard up to that point, so it is strange for me to say this, but I had received a certain amount of recognition from the people around me. But because I was such a hard worker, and because I opposed every single thing Mr. Matsuoka said, things became somewhat awkward in the department. &#8230; I was not happy about it. Perhaps that was a bad thing, because six months later he was transferred to a distant sales office. He seemed to be very preoccupied with his work, so I think he may have been relieved to get the transfer.
Her social networking site, which I hadn&#8217;t seen for a while after the turmoil, was pretty much trashed. That was probably also the work of his wife. She said she keenly realized that it is also the strength of a &#8220;wife&#8221; to choose any means to protect her position.
<h2>In a last act of love, she did not report the damage.</h2>
 I thought, without irony or sarcasm, &#8220;It&#8217;s amazing that she could be so defensive without even trying to be. I still think about how I would react at work. In the end, I did not file a damage report because there were no serious injuries, but an assault charge can be filed without a complaint. In the meantime, the police contacted me. I thought about him and said, &#8216;I was not assaulted, I fell by myself during a struggle. That&#8217;s the last of my affection.&#8221;
She is a mentally strong woman. If she had been a little weaker, it could have been more tragic. Even she went to counseling for a while. Her heart was screaming at the quick flip-flops and attacks by her wife from someone who was really into it.
Still, what sustained her was &#8220;my own love for him. She did not want to hate him. If she hated him, she would hate herself for loving him. She still hasn&#8217;t touched the million yen that she had at that time.
<h2>Love&#8221; ends when one of them wakes up.</h2>
However, whether single or having an affair, everything that is called &#8220;love&#8221; ends when one person decides to end it. It is unreasonable, but it is love because it is unreasonable.
 Marriage is protected because it is a contract, but love is a mutual feeling. There are no guarantees. &#8230; .&#8221;
Looking back on the months when our bodies and hearts were on fire, there is nothing left now. This may be another characteristic of love. I wonder if the day will ever come when I will be immersed in nothing but beautiful memories.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 It is sad that my love turned out like this. I had an affair with a married man, so I guess I deserved it. For the time being, I don&#8217;t need to be in love. Right now I am absorbed in my work.&#8221;
Karin said with a complicated expression, as if she were crying and smiling.
