His Crimson Countdown To Zero

Summary

I can see the countdown that marks the exact moment someone decides to leave their partner.

The day the numbers above my father’s head hit zero, he laid a set of divorce papers on the kitchen island and walked out on my mother and me without looking back.

The day my best friend Rachel’s clock hit zero, she finally found the courage to pack her bags and leave her toxic ex.

My greatest fear in life was seeing those numbers appear above Dan's head.

But for seven years of marriage, his crown was clean. Not a single digit. Nothing.
