I had nearly burned myself. I quickly pulled my hand away, my heart racing. “Focus, Charlotte. Focus on making dinner.” I exhaled slowly, forcing myself to calm down. By the time everything was ready, the house had settled into its usual quiet rhythm. All that was left was to wait for him. I glanced at the clock and saw he was late again.

"Somewhere that belongs entirely to you. You've spent five years building a home for everyone else. You deserve one that belongs only to you." I stared at the key for a long time.

My instinct was to save him, not to love him. "Austin, it takes two people for a relationship to begin, but only one to end it." I remained silent because I had long accumulated enough disappointment. Once I chose to walk away, I would never look back. I glanced down and saw the light in Austin's eyes vanish completely.

Callie came running over, her voice sweet and childish. "Mommy, let's get ice cream today!"

Of course she did. But regret did not rebuild trust. Regret did not erase images. Regret did not promise she wouldn’t choose someone else tomorrow. --- And yet— if she called right now and said, Come back— he would go. He knew it. That was the tragedy. --- Love had made them both late. She was late to choose him. He was late to realize she was everything. --- And time— time was beginning to move without mercy.

“Marriage is a sacred bond between two people who love each other. Who commit to supporting one another through good times and bad. Through sickness and health. For richer or poorer.” The word love made Adrian want to laugh or throw up. He didn’t love Vanessa, he had never loved her, and he’s sure as hell would never love her. This was a contract, a business arrangement, a trap he’d walked into because he’d been stupid enough to sleep with her without protection. The officiant droned and dragged on about commitment and partnership and building a life together. Adrian turned him out and scanned the crowd instead. Three hundred people, most of them strangers his mother had invited. Business as

My best friend and her boyfriend started a couples' vlog channel together, and it recently went viral online. I immediately followed it, watching every single upload. Yet, I couldn't shake the feeling that her blurred-out boyfriend acted suspiciously like my husband. When I mentioned it to her, she just flicked my forehead. "Girl, you're so crazy in love that you see your husband everywhere! Keep this up, and I'm gonna start getting jealous!" Blushing, I rubbed my head and quickly changed the subject. That was until my husband's company retreat, where I dragged Barbara Moore along to keep me company. Out of nowhere, our flight back suffered a severe emergency. Flight attendants handed

He hated me so much that he dragged my parents down with me. He hated me so much that he could not even allow the six-month-old baby in my belly to come to this world. Bitterness filled my chest, and my eyes stung. "Believe what you like, but I didn't do it. I swear it wasn't me." At that moment, the door to Ivan's room opened.
