Infertile Lies: My Ex-wife is a Renowned Urologist Chapter 7: Vanessa and Edward
Vanessa was in the hospital cafeteria reading over surgical protocol notes when the email came on a Tuesday morning.Subject: Housing Notice - Immediate Action RequiredDear Resident,The Medical Residence Hall will be closed as of Friday, March 7th, for a minimum of 6-8 weeks due to emergency repairs to the building (damage caused by a recent water pipe break) Residents must vacate by 5 p.m. on Friday. The university housing office has a handful of other options for housing. Please email housing@jhmi.edu immediately to discuss options.Vanessa read it twice, then she looked at the date once more. Tuesday. Three days.She turned on her laptop and looked up rental ads. Studio flats by campus were going for eighteen hundred a month. Sublets needed 1st month, last month & security deposit. Her severance from Elizabeth would pay for it, but barely. And most places wanted a six-month lease minimum.She shut the laptop and brought her fingers to her temples."Problem?"She looked up. Edward
Infertile Lies: My Ex-wife is a Renowned Urologist Chapter 6: Lecture week
The first week of lectures was like drinking from a fire hose. Vanessa was always in the front row of every class, her pen moving across the page of her notebook in tight, neat lines. Urological pathology. Surgical anatomy. Pharmacological interventions. The professors talked fast, assumed literacy, demanded expertise.She worked late in the lab, her eyes stinging as she studied slides under the microscope. Prostate tissue. Bladder biopsies. Renal cell carcinoma. She cross-referenced every slide with her textbooks, scribbled notes in the margins in three different colors, and highlighted sections until the pages resembled abstract paintings.The rest of the experts, most of them younger, just out of residency, were ganging up. They invited her once. She declined politely. They didn't ask again.By Friday her shoulders ached. Not from sitting, from tensing so tightly That I forgot to Breathe. She had a sore jaw from clenching. Her hands tied themselves in knots while she held her pen

"Passport please.”Vanessa slid her passport across the counter and didn’t look up.The immigration official barely glanced at her before turning the pages leisurely, too leisurely. Then he shifted his eyes between the photograph and her face. There were activities everywhere around her, rolling suitcases, clipped announcements, the low hum of people who had just arrived to meet someone.“Whats your purpose of visit?” he said.“To study.”“For how long?”“As long as it takes.”That earned her a final look. Not suspicion, just mild curiosity. He stamped the passport, in what seem to be in slow motion, slid it back to her, and made a hand gesture for her to go.The airport had this smell that is unique to hospitals…like disinfectant and burnt coffee, a strange blend that clung to her clothes as she followed the flow of bodies toward baggage claim. Screens blinked overhead in unrecognized codes and terminals. Voices rose and fell in accents she couldn't recognize…yet. Somewhere behind h
Infertile Lies: My Ex-wife is a Renowned Urologist Chapter 4: Choosing Me
“You haven't been picking my calls? Travis said in a hoarse voice, his chest thrusted out, eyes gleaming from Vanessa to Franklin. They folded their arms allowing their silence stretch the room. Travis declined back, his eyes catching the strain that laid on Vanessa's veins. For every long glare, her grip on the paper tightened even more, her knuckles digging through it like she was about to tear it to pieces. “Can someone answer me? What the hell is going on here?” His eyes flushed. Vanessa pinched the bridge of her nose, squeezing her eyes tightly. “I hate suspense.” He sneered, swirling back slowly. “Attorney Franklin. Has she brought you here as a witness while she signs the surrogacy agreement?” He turned to a seat, his back pressed to the couch.No response came from them.Vanessa stepped forward, pinching her lips tight to keep them from trembling. Lifting her chin, she swallowed hard, stifling back the weakness that burned in her throat. “Travis.” She exhaled deeply. “Fo
Infertile Lies: My Ex-wife is a Renowned Urologist Chapter 3: Emotional Breakdown
Vanessa lurched out of the office clutching the medical records in her hand, her nails biting into her palms. The ground scraped beneath her feet as she hunched over as if choking down a sob. She lowered her head, her neck appearing to shrink. She pushed through the exit door, pinching her lips tight to keep them from trembling. How could he? She stuttered, choking for words. Her shoulders drooped as her body crumpled into itself. This isn’t the kind of marriage I gave up my career for. Her hands pressed against her breastbone as she bit her bottom lips, eyes widened as brows furrowed.When she got to the spot she had parked her car, she collapsed into the seat, slamming the door so hard that her ears stung.She sat facing the front mirror, her throat tightened making her lungs squeeze and her muscles weak. As she reached out for her phone, her limbs trembled and the tear she had fought so hard to resist finally streaked down her face. She dialed her attorney’s number and pressed t
Infertile Lies: My Ex-wife is a Renowned Urologist Chapter 2: Demanding Answers
The screeching of the tires made Vanessa's back bounce on the seat as her grip tightened around the steering wheel. “This better not be true.” She muttered,pressing her lips as she stared at the hospital's gate. Her throat burned. Was this marriage a lie even after she had forfeited her career? Was it a waste of commitment and effort?” She sucked her teeth, feeling the weight of the betrayal settle like a stone in her chest. She grabbed her bag, and unfolded the document across her lap. As she scanned through the file for the umpteenth time, her fingers hoovered around. She swallowed hard, reached for the door handle and shoved it open. The door slammed behind her. Vanessa clutched the file in her hand, her heels clicking across the parking lot and through the automatic doors. The sharp, pungent sterile scent of isopropyl alcohol mixed with antiseptic dettol and sweet acetone clung to her nostrils but she didn't flinch. Her eyes were too busy searching, scanning fo
