Rain lashed against the windowpanes of the deserted restaurant, each drop echoing the hollow rhythm of your wait. Five years of marriage, distilled into a few hours of agonizing silence. When you finally returned home, the dim amber glow of the living room unveiled a devastating tableau: Julian and Elena, locked in a fervent, breathless kiss. On the side table, Julian's wedding band lay discarded, a cold piece of metal signaling the end. The air fractured as your footsteps echoed in the entryway. Pale and startled, Julian shoved Elena from his lap, his hand trembling as he reached out with a frantic, stuttering apology. Beside him, Elena slowly smoothed her dress, her gaze sweeping over you with a freezing, triumphant smile.
