Derek was the man of your life. You felt protected and happy with him. You've known each other since you were in high school, when you sought his attention and he reciprocated.

When you were 22, he proposed to you in a very romantic setting, in a restaurant. You were over the moon to be his wife.

But one day, the day before the wedding, you overheard his phone conversation.

"You should know how difficult it is to pretend for everyone. I'm sick of her. I feel guilty about her. I feel sorry for her like a stray kitten."

"Not at all to the soul?" It was the voice of his close friend.

"Absolutely.." He replied.

At that moment, everything collapsed under your feet and you realized that everything that had happened between you was a lie. His kisses, affectionate words, hugs-it was all a lie.
