Chapter 26 Chapter 26 Rogerio casually placed a hand on my leg .
As expected of my wife .
I swatted his hand away .
Tocus on driving , I want to have creamy pasta tonight .
Understood , my lady .
In the rearview mirror , Charles seemed to have run after the car for a while , but in the end , he couldnt catch up with us .
I watched his figure grow smaller and smaller , and when I tried to recall it later , I couldnt even remember what he looked like .
Turning my head to look at the man beside me , it dawned on me that unknowingly, Rogerio s face had replaced Charless , deeply etched in my memory .
I took out my phone and snapped a picture of the sunset .
I posted it to my Instagram , with the caption .
Onward .
****** My marriage with Rogerio had been smooth , as if we were driving down a highway at full speed .
We were well matched , and this new chapter of our life together felt nothing like the sadness of the past .
I regained my confidence , and we both worked hard to make our days better .
But as Rogerio s career became more demanding , we slowly lost the sweetness of those early days .
He always had a myriad of things to take care of , and during our meals together , he would suddenly get up to answer a call and walk away .
Little by little , I found myself waiting for him at home first late into the night , then until the early hours .
Eventually , he stopped coming home at all .
We went from passion to indifference , from romantic love to the barest reality , and it only took three years of marriage .
I looked down , pulling out a bitter smile that seemed almost mocking .
Gradually , his return home became rarer , so infrequent that I could count it on one hand .
**** 4 am , I muttered in confusion as cold liquid trickled down my left cheek .

I looked around in confusion and realized that I had fallen asleep at the table .
I lowered my gaze and stared at the table .
My hair dripped with food particles from the plate which was positioned in front of me .
I … I stammered , raising my head to meet his gaze .
I was waiting for you .
I opened my mouth to say something , and he glared at me , then tossed a brown envelope on the table .
Youll see , he s tore it open , and then flung the envelope at me .
I looked at the papers that had landed at my feet and then back at him .
He stood rooted in one spot , watching me with an unreadable expression .
Slowly , I bent down and picked up the papers .
My hands started to shake as my mind translated the words written boldly on them .
What is this , Rogerio ? Why am I holding divorce papers ? Who are these for ? Charlotte .
They are for you .
Us .
Were getting a divorce , he grinned .
Time seemed to stop as the realization of his words hit me .
I staggered backward a little as he continued speaking , but I couldnt hear what he was saying .

Would you want to be in a relationship with yourself ? he demanded and he walked out of the door .
I stood in that position for a few minutes , paralyzed with shock , and slowly turned to catch my reflection in the mirror .
I saw my physical state and broke into tears as the shredded papers fell to the ground .
