A man ridicules his unemployed wife, only to come home one day to find her gone. In her search, he discovers a note revealing she intends to divorce him. Can he stop her from doing so and save their marriage?<\/p>\n
It was a bright, cold October morning, and Harry was excited about his gaming app presentation, a project he had poured himself into for the past six months.<\/p>\n
As the clock struck eight, Harry entered the dining room, preoccupied with his phone, barely acknowledging his wife, Sara, and their sons, Cody and Sonny.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cMorning, honey,\u201d greeted Sara.<\/p>\n
\u201cGood morning, Daddy,\u201d the boys chimed in unison.<\/p>\n
Ignoring them, Harry grabbed a toast and rushed back to his room.<\/p>\n
\u201cSara, where\u2019s my white shirt?\u201d Harry\u2019s voice boomed from the room.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI didn\u2019t have enough whites for a full load until now. You have other white shirts!!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a big day for me, and you\u2019re making excuses?\u201d Harry retorted.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re overreacting, Harry. Your presentation is what matters. It\u2019s just a shirt. So stop barking, alright?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOh really? I\u2019m barking? You wanna do this now?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDo what, Harry? You\u2019re making a scene for a stupid little thing. And nobody would be interested in what color shirt you\u2019re wearing when all eyes would be fixed on your goddamn presentation.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cA goddamn presentation? Come again\u2026Did you just say that? Do you have any idea how I\u2019ve been busting my butt off day and night for that project?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWatch your words. The kids\u2026.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou sit at home all day doing nothing,\u201d Harry blurted out. \u201cIs it too hard to remember one simple thing? All you do is Blah Blah Blah and NOTHING at home.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHarry, stop this. The kids are watching. You\u2019re scaring them.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOh really? And nobody watches you when you\u2019re on the goddamn phone gossiping all the time with your friends. Nobody watches that, huh, Sara? You can never be a good wife if you can\u2019t do even a simple thing for me!\u201d<\/p>\n
Harry dressed up in a random suit and stormed out of the house, grabbing his briefcase.<\/p>\n
After a successful presentation and bagging the promotion, Harry anticipated an apology call from Sara \u2013 something she always did after their fights. But this time, there were no calls.<\/p>\n
Thinking he would win her apology anyway, he returned home with white roses but found the apartment empty. A note from Sara on the table read, \u201cI want a divorce.\u201d<\/p>\n
Confused and worried, Harry called Sara\u2019s sister, Zara, who informed him that Sara was in the hospital. Harry rushed to the hospital, only to face an angry Zara. \u201cYou told her she was not \u2018wife\u2019 enough for you?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLook, we\u2019ll talk about this later, alright?\u201d<\/p>\n
Harry rushed to meet the doctor. \u201cDoctor, is my wife alright? Can I see her?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a mild attack. She\u2019s out of danger. But she needs to take care of her health now. Go ahead and only ten minutes coz she needs to rest.\u201d<\/p>\n
Harry shakily walked into the ward, trying to force a smile as he approached Sara.<\/p>\n
\u201cHoney, I\u2019m sorry. Please, let me explain. I\u2014\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t wanna hear anything. I\u2019m done. Divorce is the only thing I want.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWha-What? Why\u2026You\u2019re taking it too far, alright?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI had ambitions, plans\u2026 I chose you over every opportunity, and it ruined my life,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s too late for your sorry, Harry.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHoney, please. We can work this together,\u201d he pleaded.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, I can\u2019t do this anymore. I can\u2019t be fake to myself. To you. And to the kids. I\u2019m 32, but I feel like a crone. I just hate you, Harry. You\u2019re so disgusting.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat about the kids, Sara?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
