Laura I had waited three years for this night. As I sat, my fingers tightened around my clutch, my heart racing with a little bit of excitement even though I was feeling sad. Tonight, he would finally say it. He would tell everyone the truth that I was the mind behind the innovations that built his company, and that he would announce our partnership at last. For three years of marriage, I had been more than just a wife. I was the one who stayed up late, turning half-formed ideas into real innovations. I worked quietly while he took the spotlight, watching his company grow from the shadows. I celebrated his success in silence because I trusted him every time he told me to be patient. Tonight, I believed my patience would finally be rewarded. I turned my eyes to the corner of the room, his mom sat there glaring at me, I tore my gaze away from her.

I had been sitting there for hours, pretending to work, but the truth was I couldn’t concentrate on anything. Ever since Laura left, everything had felt heavy and wrong. The silence in the house was unbearable, and no matter how hard I tried to focus, my mind always drifted back to her.
