The Divorce Diaries
My husband, Clement Norman, promised to make up for our missed honeymoon. It was five years late, but I was still excited.
I got ready and really looked forward to it.
But right before we boarded the plane, I realized there was someone extra in our group—Clement's childhood friend, Madison Bowen.
He explained half-heartedly, "Madison's never been abroad before. I figured we could bring her along."
I wasn't thrilled, but when I spoke up, he made it sound like I was being dramatic.
"Are you jealous of our relationship because you didn't grow up with a proper family? I see her as a sister. You wouldn't get it—you grew up an orphan."
I chose to stay quiet, not wanting to ruin our honeymoon.
But we encountered an avalanche halfway through the trip. My leg got stuck deep in the snow, and I couldn't move.
And the first thing Clement did was grab Madison's hand and run.
He didn't even look back.
