Cela faisait cinq ans qu'ils étaient mariés. Un jour, trouvant trop amers les comprimés de vitamine C que son mari lui préparait, Tiphaine, inquiète, s'est rendue à l'hôpital avec le flacon. Le médecin l'a examiné et a secoué la tête : « Ce ne sont pas des vitamines C. » « Quoi ? Vous en êtes certain ? » « Madame, je vous l'ai répété plusieurs fois », a-t-il insisté en désignant l'objet, « Contenu ici : du misoprostol. Une consommation excessive provoquerait non seulement la stérilité, mais aussi des dommages corporels graves. » La gorge nouée, Tiphaine a serré le flacon si fort que ses jointures ont blanchi. « Impossible... C'est mon mari qui me les a préparés. Il s'appelle Gaëtan Cazal, il est aussi médecin dans cet hôpital. » Le regard du médecin est devenu soudain étrange, teinté d'une indéfinissable pitié. Il a eu un rire léger : « Je vous suggère de consulter un psychiatre. L'épouse de Gaëtan, nous la connaissons tous, elle a accouché il y a deux mois. Depuis quand est-il votre mari ? »

Le troisième jour de mon confinement postnatal, mon mari prétendait qu’il devait partir en voyage d’affaires en urgence, me laissant seule pour m’occuper du bébé.

Fort surprise, j’ai commenté par un point d’interrogation. Il m’a immédiatement appelée pour me réprimander : « Elle est une pauvre mère célibataire, sans homme pour s’occuper d’elle. Cette photo ne signifie rien. Ne sois pas mesquine ! » Le soir, son amie d’enfance a posté une nouvelle photo : un ensemble de trois bijoux en or d’une valeur de plusieurs millions. « Après la photo de famille, il a insisté pour m’offrir ces magnifiques bijoux. » C’était un cadeau pour faire plaisir à sa maîtresse, je le savais bien. Enfin, j’ai décidé de quitter mon mari.
