Colin grabbed my arm and pulled me into the hallway. "Do you have any idea what you're doing?" he hissed.

"I do," I answered, knocking his hand aside. "What about you?"

"I already told you that we were doing desensi—"

"Desensitization exercises," I said, completing his sentence for him. "Which doctor recommended it to you? What's their name? Where's the treatment plan?"

Colin opened his mouth before closing it again.

"What about the birth control pills? Does she need to take them for desens

    Colin stopped by the community health center the next day. The nurses told him that I had taken the day off."She's participating in the District Nursing Competition that's taking place in the District Cultural Center."Colin hesitated for a long time before he decided to drop by the District Cultural Center. The auditorium was packed, but he managed to find an empty seat in the corner in the last row.I was wearing a white coat as I stood on the stage and presented a hands-on demonstration. My hands were very steady, and I looked extremely focused.The light illuminated my face. I looked like a completely different person. I was nothing like the woman who used to sit on her foldable bed while eating a meal that had gone cold, or the woman who used to hang her head while she stood in the kitchen without saying a single word.I, Natalie Swanson, was glowing at that moment.Or perhaps I had always glowed, but Colin had just been too blind to notice.I won second place in the compe

    I officially moved into Mom's small apartment in the old part of the city. It was only 430 square feet. It was old, and the paint was peeling from the walls.I spent an entire weekend repainting the walls with white paint. I also changed the curtains to light blue ones.When Mom covered the floor with newspapers, she accidentally got white paint on her face when she bent over.I grabbed my phone and snapped a photo of her. We burst out laughing when we looked at the photo together."Our home was also just this big when your father was still around," Mom said as she painted a spot in the corner that I had missed. "But it was more than enough for the three of us."A potted plant sat next to the old shoe cabinet by the door. The cabinet wasn't very big, but it could fit two pairs of shoes and two pairs of slippers. It was just enough.…I passed by the diner on my way to work. A couple sat in our usual spot.I didn't go inside and simply kept walking.Patricia dropped by the comm

    Colin sought me out three days later.He didn't call or text me. Instead, he showed up in person, standing in front of Mom's rented apartment.A pot of soup was bubbling on the stove when I spotted him from the window on the fifth floor. I turned off the stove and headed downstairs.For the first time, Colin's shirt wasn't ironed. His collar was wrinkled, and there were dark bags under his eyes.His lips trembled when he saw me. His voice sounded like sandpaper when he said, "I conducted my own investigations."I waited for him to continue."The man she was talking to. It was the vice-president of my company, Elijah Hills."I hummed in response."I've looked through their chat log," he said, massaging his forehead with pale knuckles. "It's been three years. I thought that I was protecting her. But in reality…"Colin couldn't finish his sentence.I didn't continue the conversation. Instead, I asked, "Have you looked through the divorce agreement?"He looked down at the tips o

    I washed the plates after finishing my pasta.I sat on the bed and flipped through the light blue notebook. I then sent the screenshots that I had collected that numbered over 300, the recordings, the photos of the birth control pills, and Rebecca's secret social media account to Damien.Damien called me ten minutes later."You've collected plenty of evidence to successfully prove that the other party is at fault in your marriage. They also won't be able to do anything to the property in the old part of the city that you already owned before your marriage."We have the advantage when it comes to property division. Is there anything else that you want?"I thought it over for a moment before answering, "I don't want his money. I just want him to force Rebecca to admit to everyone that she faked her androphobia."Damien paused for a moment before saying, "They definitely won't agree to your request.""Then, we'll have a public trial. The recordings and screenshots are conclusive ev

"What about you?""I already told you that we were doing desensi—""Desensitization exercises," I said, completing his sentence for him. "Which doctor recommended it to you? What's their name? Where's the treatment plan?"Colin opened his mouth before closing it again."What about the birth control pills? Does she need to take them for desensitization exercises?"The color drained from Colin's face.Rebecca dashed out of her room and chased after us. Her bare feet thumped against the tiles as tears spilled down her cheeks."Please let me explain, Natalie. The pills aren't—""You don't need to explain yourself," I said as I looked at her. "Put on some proper clothes. The trainers will be here soon. You'll catch a cold if you don't put on something warmer."Colin's phone started ringing a few seconds later.It was Alicia. Rebecc

    The sounds of Rebecca's sobs echoed from the next room at around 2:00 am. She cried about being scared and in pain.I could vaguely hear Colin comforting Rebecca. "It's alright. I'm here. I'm right here…"Silence returned to the hallway about 40 minutes later.Colin didn't return to the room.I lay on the bed and stared up at the pitch-black ceiling. I turned on my side and grabbed my phone, navigating to Rebecca's secret social media account.Her latest update was last night at 11:00 pm.She had been flirting with a man with the username, "ACupOfBlackCoffee", in the comments. When he sent her a kissing emoji, she replied with a blushing one.Rebecca had apparently been too scared to fall asleep last night at 11:00 pm. I took a screenshot of their interaction and saved it to the album.…The next morning, Colin discussed Saturday's arrangements during breakfast."St. Grace Hospital has an inpatient observation program. The doctor mentioned that he can conduct a short-term e
