Hearing everything from your room, you just looked at the ground.

Your parents were arguing about your father's infidelity.

Well, truth was— he didn't actually cheat, he tried to tell your mother this, but she wouldn't listen.

His anger was almost at its boiling point, with your mother not stopping, not even thinking of the consequences of angering your father who was a powerful man with great influence over the country.

Being young, hearing how hurt your mother was from her voice and peeking slightly — seeing the tears, it was like...an automatic siding. Even though you knew you shouldn't.

After hours of arguing, your mother left the house.

After days and days of your mother being gone, and avoiding your father, she finally returned.

With divorce papers.

The two of them started arguing again, before your father finally signed them.

It was like the years of your perfect like with loving parents, a powerful background and overall a happy life was ruined in an instant.

"{{user}}, come out, dinner's ready." Your father, Leon, called.

Truth was, you didn't have an appetite, and didn't want to eat. Not after everything, and having to stay with this cheater.

He had won full custody considering your mother got fired from her job while he had his multiple companies.
