As her ears started ringing, the lump in her throat growing, the words he spoke faded into the background. Her eyes welled up, and her breath hitched, she had heard him right? “Earth to Rebecca, hello?!” He replied to her in an annoyed tone. She took a deep breath, “After 20 yrs you really don’t want a life with me” she managed to speak slightly above a whisper. She had been his rock, put his needs first, never said no to his frivolous spending, and had loved him enough for the both of them; yet in the small bedroom in their city apartment he stood with divorce papers in hand. She hadn’t been naive about the rough patch that they were navigating, but they had always worked past because Rebecca had always put her husband 1st. “Rebecca I don’t love you and no level of your love is going to undo these divorce papers. I can’t even stand to be in this room with you, but I want to be on a united front when we tell the kids.”

When one door closes

“You want me to make it ok for you to leave me?!” She sobbed, “Have you even thought about how the kids are going to take this?”

“Look Rebecca, this was all your dream. I never wanted to move to the city, I was content in the suburbs close to my family. Sure I told you to go for the job, but I honestly didn’t have any faith you’d land the job. So here we are 17 months later and our lease is up so I’m out. Don’t act all surprised, I don’t come home for you it’s been for the kids. And they’re teens now so they’ll understand. But I can’t stay with a woman I don’t love, am repulsed to touch, and is the cause of my misery.”

His words pierced her heart and shattered it into a million pieces. He was leaving her because she had taken a position in Boston as an administrator for a Fortune 500 company, one that had afforded them moving out of poverty and into a comfortable life. Sure she had put on weight over the past 20 yrs, 2 kids and the stress of life had added 30lbs to her waist.

“How long have you felt this way?” She asked firmly, he has quiet “Samuel you owe me that, how long?” She said with force this time.

“I was going to leave before your cancer scare, but that would have been really shitty of me to leave while you were going through the testing.”

Rebecca grabbed the edge of their bed, 7 years he had faked being a happy spouse. It felt like the air was being sucked out of her lungs, how did she not see it? Why now, why not earlier. The questions started to play in her head.

“Samuel, is there someone else?”

“Rebecca why do we have to do this, I want a divorce and that final. Sign the damn papers and pull yourself together, we’ll tell the kids over dinner.” He said with force and anger.

“NO! Don’t you dare try to change the subject, is there someone else?!” Rebecca yelled back “after 20 years I deserve that!”

“SHHHHH, keep your voice down; why does it even matter?”

“Sam answer the question, do I know her?”

“See Rebecca, this is the shit I hate about you. Why do you want to know, it’s not going to change anything.” Samuel rubbed his hands over his face “Ok fine, you want this. Yeah, yeah you do know HIM. Is that what you wanted to hear, you turned me gay!” He yelled in a quiet manner. “And I’m not ready to tell the kids, so pull yourself together and let’s get this over with.”

“Is it Luigi?” She asked while spinning her wedding band, the very one she pretty much bought for herself. How could she have been so blind, so weak, so trusting? “Answer me, it’s the least you can do. I don’t care if it hurts, I need the truth.” She pleaded “you owe me this!”

Samuel sat down on the other side of the queen bed they had shared, he let out a deep sigh “It is, I don’t know when it happened, I guess you could say we became best friends and then it was more.” Samuel had only recently come to terms with his sexuality and finally been real with himself about his lover. “I’m sorry Beck, I’ll always love you as the mother of my children.” He spoke gently to her “listen let’s talk with the kids and then you can look at the divorce papers over the weekend. I’m headed back to Luigi’s after dinner and next week we can talk logistics.”

Rebecca wiped her eyes, even now in the face of heartbreak she was still putting his needs 1st. She had perfected her roll as the caregiver of her family, no matter how broken it was, and need to be the rock for her children even when she was falling apart. “Damien is coming to dinner as well, so you can tell him as well. I know he’s your step son, but you practically raised him with me. If you think I’m pulling ‘happiest place on earth’ vibes tonight you can go fu€k yourself Sam.” And with that she left the bedroom and went to freshen up for dinner.
