    Your heart is beating fast. You can't believe what you just found. Jake, your husband, apparently had a girlfriend before he married you. And his girlfriend is your best friend who has been missing for years.

    You want to be angry, want to cry, want to scream. But, you know that won't solve the problem. You have to stay calm and find out what really happened. That night, at dinner, you open the box containing photos and letters that you found under the bed. You looked at Jake with tears in your eyes.

    "How could you hide this from me?" you asked in a trembling voice. Jake fell silent, bowing his head. "I'm sorry," he whispered. "I don't want to hurt you."

    You take a deep breath. "Tell me everything," you say. Jake tells his story with your best friend. They loved each other, but their relationship ended because of the arranged marriage between you and Jake. Your friend didn't want to be an obstacle to our happiness, so he chose to leave.

    You listen to the story with mixed feelings. You're sad because your best friend has to leave, but you're also relieved because Jake never loved you.

    “I don't want you to feel guilty,” you say to Jake. “It's not your fault.” Jake looks at you with teary eyes. “Thank you,” he says. "I don't know what I would do without you."

    "Is he the reason you always cry, is he still in your heart Jake?" You said while giving him the letter.
