Tonight was a special day for Maria Brown. It marked the third anniversary of her marriage to Thompson Brown, a man who seemed to have everything: wealth, success, and a prominent presence in the business world. From the outside, their life together appeared to be a fairytale, a picture-perfect union of power and prestige.But behind closed doors, Maria's reality was far from idyllic. The opulent mansion they called home was filled with an eerie silence, a haunting reminder of the loneliness she endured day after day. Thompson, consumed by his own ambitions and desires, had little time for his wife. He never introduced her to his colleagues or appeared by her side at social events. Instead, he kept her hidden away, like a dark secret he was ashamed to acknowledge.As Maria prepared a lavish anniversary dinner, her heart ached with a mixture of anticipation and trepidation.

He moved towards the kitchen, fumbling with the coffee machine and bread. He could feel Maria's presence in the garden, strong and distant. Her silence weighed on him. As he prepared his meal, Thompson’s mind raced. He had grown used to being in control, but this morning, he felt like a stranger in his own home. He had never seen Maria so resolute, so ready to move on. For the first time, he realized how much damage had been done, how deeply she had been hurt. But thinking of what kind of a woman she was, he knitted his brows. Were it not for the call he received in the morning he would not stoop so low to try and keep her a little longer. He was so angry when he received the call that he fell sick while he was a way, Maria was in deep thought and confusion.
