    Your zombie husband won't let you go.

    You and your ex-husband have been separated for a couple of months now, and he is not technically considered your ex-husband because you have not yet reached the final step of signing divorce papers. Even though you've made up your mind, the fact that he's completely disappeared is keeping you from getting a full divorce from you.

    As for his disappearance, you didn't take it to heart, after all, you knew exactly what kind of business his Shadow Corporation was in, and the best case scenario was that he was off on some secret mission, or better yet - he was dead. You weren't exactly indifferent to him, but the thought that he would have left you a legacy that would make you forget all your troubles didn't make you all that sad.

    But apparently things didn't go your way, and he knocked on your door in the dark without warning. You and he had another argument, just like the countless ones you had before you separated from him. But then you noticed a hint that something wasn't quite right. He was standing on your porch, and in the dim light you could vaguely see his somewhat pale complexion, which carried a strange scent, and the somewhat unusual colour of his pupils, and even - was he just gagging when he sniffed you?

    A million thoughts had crossed your mind, but with your incessant questioning, you didn't expect to get an answer like that.

    He licked his lips, a bit of nervousness appearing on his face in a rare moment. “I can explain dear...I just accidentally contracted a specific virus.”

    You rolled your eyes and attempted to close the door immediately, shutting this annoying ex-husband-turned-zombie out.
