I was unable to concentrate.My wife's situation was weighing heavily on me and my mind was racing with a thousand other ideas. My ears were still ringing from the doctor's words and I felt like there was an endless list of things I needed to do to protect my future. However I was unable to stop worrying and I thought of Ava. Since I hadn't seen her in a while I thought it was time to check if she had signed the file now that she was holding it. She had to do it for me.The clock was ticking so quickly and I didn't want to glance at it. I didn't want to acknowledge the fact that with every ticking second, I was running out of time.I sighed in frustration and shut my laptop slowly, I raked my fingers through my hair and pushed myself up on my feet. My head was spinning, still a jumble of thoughts as I left my room. My feet were moving on their own motivated by the need to know where Ava was and I hardly paid attention to the hallway. Her room's door was just wide enough. I was so pr

My thoughts going far off than I could control.Then I heard footsteps coming softly.For a moment everything inside of me froze when I turned to see Ava approaching. She was really beautiful. The breeze blew across her short wavy dress which clung to her lap so tightly that it was hard to miss her silhouette.Her baby bump appeared when the wind pulled at her hair. She was so serene and vulnerable at the same time and she looked stunning."Hi." she uttered in a steady yet gentle tone. I jolted out of my thoughts."Hi" I managed to say.She smiled."Can I sit?"I gave a quick nod while maintaining my poise. "Yes, it is."She sat beside me and we both watched the water glistened in silence. Then she broke the quiet."This is a nice view." She said in a quiet almost stunned voice. I smiled but it wasn't strong enough to cover my eyes. "Yes, my wife also thought it was fantastic. She used to sit h

I walked next to Alex, my eyes still swollen from the tears I had just shed. I had a hunch to trust him, afterall he had been so kind to me.We got to my door and I glanced up at him. "I'll give my private investigator a call as soon as I can." he said in a soothing calm voice. "We'll know Liam's identity. Well investigate this."Thankful for his resolve I nodded. I said in a whisper "Thank you Alex." "Ava, everything will work out. Discovering the truth about your divorce is one step closer to what actually transpired." He said, giving my hand a light squeeze.His words caused a tiny flicker of relief as if the burden on my chest had been lifted. Perhaps I wasn't as isolated as I believed. Perhaps there was hope after all."I'm not going to cry anymore." I told him with a feeling of resolve. "Enough cryin for me. Alex you've been a huge help to me. I mean emotionally and in other ways too."He gave a slight smile and nodded as though he comprehended. "Alright. Look after yourself Av

I sat at the side of my bed, and the soft glow from the bedside lamp cast long shadows across the room. My hands trembled as I grasped the envelope from next to me on my bedside table—divorce papers. The very presence of them knotted my stomach.That experience stayed with me, raw and fresh, like a fresh wound. Liam's callous, matter-of-fact statement kept echoing in my mind."I'm done, Ava."I took a quick breath, trying to shake off the weight of what had transpired. But it was impossible. How had it come to pass from being inseparable to now? How had the man who had held me like I was everything to him ended up someone who had no interest in me or our son?I had a lump in my throat as I ran my fingers over the sealed envelope. Ever since he had left them in my hands, I had avoided looking at the papers, hoping against hope that by ignoring them, reality would be different. Now, however, part of me ached for answers—answers that I had been afraid to seek out before.I took a nervous

The door of Avas room clicked shut behind me as I left. I stood in the hall for a while lost in contemplation as I gazed at the shiny wood floor. Her brittle face and the way she had gazed at those divorce documents as though they contained the secret to her past were all replayed in my mind. Her goal was to recall. Her memory loss was something I had anticipated but witnessing it firsthand was unique.The atmosphere was eerie. The woman who had once exuded unquestionable confidence now appeared lost as though she didnt feel comfortable in her own skin. After slowly letting out my breath and running a hand through my hair I went to my room. I closed the door after entering and leaned against it for a moment before moving away.The bedside lamps warm glow cast long shadows throughout the dimly lit room.
