The Fall of the CEO

Early yesterday, I received the most surprising news I could have imagined. For some time, I had noticed changes in my body—I’d been feeling unwell—so I decided to see a doctor. It turns out I’m a little over two months pregnant. I don’t know how Leonardo will take the news. We’ve never talked about it, and he always made a point of using protection. We’ve only been married for a year.
He came home last night, and we didn’t really have time to talk. He had been away on a business trip for two months, and we were busy making up for lost time.
“We need to talk.”
“We need to talk.”
We both said it at the same time. Since I’m usually the one who brings things up, I told him he could go first. And what came out of his mouth shattered every bit of hope I had…
“Angela is back. I want a divorce.”
I was left speechless. I knew this day would come. But if he knew that, how could he still make love to me last night? And then say this today as if it meant nothing?
