UNFAITHFUL UNTILL THE END
⸻
Later that afternoon, we sat quietly in the living room, talking about school days, broken dreams, and how life rarely turns out the way we imagine.
Then his phone rang.
The sound cut through the room like a blade.
He glanced at the screen, and I accidentally saw the caller ID:
My Love.
My heart skipped.
He noticed my expression and quickly turned the phone away.
“Sorry,” he said. “I need to take this.”
Before he could leave the room, the call connected—and the voice came through on loudspeaker.
“Alex,” the woman said calmly, “where are you?”
My breath caught.
“I’m with Ariana,” Alex replied.
