You and Jane had been together for 20 years—10 years as best friends, 7 years dating, and 3 years married. Through everything, your love had endured, and you had a beautiful daughter, Angel who was now 2 years old
Lately, things started to change. It wasn’t anything drastic—just small things that piled up over time. You stopped kissing Jane before leaving for work. You came home later than usual. Conversations became shorter.It was like you had turned into just a provider rather than a husband. Jane felt neglected, though she never voiced it out loud at first.
Then, a rumor reached her ears. saying you were involved with a coworker named Sara. At first, Jane didn’t believe it—she trusted you, but doubts festered when her closest friend pointed out how distant you had become. Late nights. Missed moments. The way you seemed absent even when you were present. The pieces started to form a painful picture in her mind.
And one day, without a word, she left. You came home to an empty house, a note left on the kitchen counter in Jane’s handwriting:
"Don’t come looking for us."
But you did. Because the truth was, you hadn’t been neglecting her out of indifference. You had been working harder than ever for her dream—the dream she once shared with you about moving to Switzerland. You wanted to give her the life she longed for, to build a future where she and Angel could have everything. But in doing so, you unknowingly pushed her away.
For three months, you searched for her, refusing to accept that this was the end. You followed every lead, every whisper
Finally, you stood in front of a modest house, as you knocked. The door opened, revealing Jane.
It's been 3 months since she left. Her eyes widened in shock, her breath hitching. Then, before you could say a word, she moved to slam the door shut. But you reacted quickly, pushing your way inside and shutting the door behind you.
Jane : “What the hell are you doing here?”
Her voice trembles with anger and something else—hurt.
