LOGINI applied for paid time off to visit my wife, Luna Reid, a scientist who was away on an overseas assignment. As I was bored on the plane, I scrolled through social media when I was bored on the plane. Then, I came across a post. [My ex-girlfriend, who’s married, invited me to go on an overseas trip. What should I bring on that trip?] The netizens made fun of him. [Naturally you have to bring condoms. If you accidentally get her pregnant, her current husband will become the father of your child.] Some other netizens chastised them. Initially, I was reading it for my own entertainment. At that moment, I came across a comment left by a private account. [I’m that married ex-girlfriend. I hope that everyone can be mindful of their words.] [We’re not doing this for any immoral reasons. We just want to make up for lost time.] [The coming two weeks are the only time we have left together. I just want time to pass a little slower. I just ask for it to be a little slower.] I stared at that profile picture intently. The woman in the profile picture was none other than Luna, who had been overseas for three years. She had a two-week break, and she initially planned to return to the country to be with me. However, a day before her break, she suddenly told me that her research was at a critical stage, so her time-off had been cancelled. I missed her terribly, so I secretly applied for time off at work to give her a surprise. I had not expected that surprise to turn sour on me. At the same time, I received a text message from Luna. [Baby, starting tomorrow, for two weeks, my work has a do-not-disturb policy, so please don’t contact me.]
View MoreShe once thought that losing me would not affect her. But she felt her heart breaking after it happened. Too bad, it was all too late. She had lost the version of me who would always love her, cherish her, and forgive her no matter what she did. I did not know if she was trying to protect the very last bit of her dignity. Luna no longer continued her tantrum. Instead, she left. After that day, she stopped appearing. Three days later, the lawyer gave me a call and informed me that Luna had already signed the divorce papers. I met Luna one last time before the city hall. We were both calm. We were no longer fighting or crying. We completed the rest of the divorce proceedings like two strangers. The staff members passed us the finalized documents. The papers felt cold in our hands. I walked out, and the sun felt warm against my skin. Luna suddenly turned around and stared at me with teary eyes. “Declan, I’m sorry. “I wish you all the best for your future.”
I picked up a pen and wrote on the paper. With every stroke, I felt a stabbing pain in my heart. I had loved Luna for ten years. My biggest wish in the past was to be with her forever. However, I could only end the marriage. Luna suddenly rushed over and hugged me from the back. She sobbed violently. “Declan, please don’t do this. Please, please don’t divorce me.“I’ve learned from my mistake. I won’t do that again, please forgive me, alright…”I carefully pried her fingers away as I looked down. My voice was cold. “Sign the papers. Then, leave with your belongings. “I will no longer stay in this neighborhood. Tomorrow, an agent will come over and view the house.“Don’t you want to spend the rest of your life with Julian? I’ll make it come true.”However, Luna did not want to sign it. She tore the divorce papers into pieces and asked me to take some time to calm down before she ran away. I really could not understand her. Did she not want to spend the rest of
It was Luna. When I saw her standing at the door looking uneasy, I mocked her. “Ah, so you know your way back home.“Good timing, I’ve already packed up all your stuff. You can just take them away.”Luna pretended that she had not heard that. Instead, she spoke to me with teary eyes. “Declan, don’t act this way. I’m scared.“Please calm down, alright? I’m here tonight to talk to you.”After hearing that, I sneered. Then, I sat on the couch and lit a cigarette. In the past, I knew Luna did not like the smell of cigarettes, so I had never smoked at home. Even when I smoked outside, I would clean myself up in the washroom to make sure I no longer smelled before I entered our bedroom. I was afraid that she would be upset. However, her emotions no longer had anything to do with me. “Luna, we’ve been married for five years, and I never once did you any wrong throughout.”My voice was hoarse, and I was not sure if it was from smoking or from my exhaustion. “I loved you
“Stop it, stop reading it!” Luna screamed and snatched the journal away from me. Then, she rolled down the window and threw it away. I did not stop Luna. Instead, I looked at her coldly. She could discard and destroy the journal, but it did not erase the past. The hurt she had caused me was irreversible. Besides, I had already taken photos of all the content in that journal.Luna looked at me with teary eyes. I no longer looked at her. Instead, I leaned back against the seat and shut my eyes. I had not slept for almost three full days. My body was extremely exhausted, but my brain was strangely alert. When Luna saw that I no longer wanted to speak, she did not force a conversation. Only the beeping sound from the medical equipment could be heard in the ambulance. Very soon, we arrived at the hospital. After the doctor ran a thorough examination on Julian, he glared at us furiously. “What nonsense is this?“If this is just an act, please don’t simply call an
