Only then did he reluctantly agree to make up.

I used to think this was all just normal bickering between young couples.

I thought once he had a job, he would be happier.

Then, our lives would get better and better.

I never realized he was deliberately trying to wear me down.

My other half had hidden the future I thought was within reach.

So fast I didn't even get the chance to tell him that I was pregnant.

I closed my eyes and pushed him away.

His warm embrace now felt like a bottomless swamp.

I looked into his eyes and said calmly, "Shawn, it's over between us."

"I’ve listed every penny I spent on you over the past three years in a document I’ve sent to your email. Your bags are by the door. Get out. We’ll never see each other again."

Shawn stared at me in disbelief. "Yelena, I was out all day yesterday and you're still giving me a hard time? That's so childish!"

I opened the door and told him to go, but he wouldn't let go of my wrist.

I showed him the video of him and Hannah kissing. Then, I looked at the furious man before me.

Shawn froze for a second, but there was no hint of guilt or surprise at being caught cheating. All he could manage was a straight face with an irritated expression.
