Birthday Lunch

I was on my knees, begging Henry to take our daughter to the amusement park for her birthday. She was going to have surgery for her ailing kidneys, and she wanted time alone with her father.

Through her tears, she asked me why her father favored his other daughter so much—was she such a bad girl? She died with her hopes crushed. Her phone slid off her fingers, still playing a video… A video of her own father renting out the largest amusement park out there just to celebrate the birthday of his mistress' daughter!

What's the point of continuing a marriage without love? I chose to leave! But after I left, he seemed like a completely different person, starting to care about me in every way and wanting to win me back! It's too late!
