I Set Her Free to Have Another Man's Child

Summary

When my wife, who once mutually agreed with me to be child-free, has to give birth abroad, I book her a plane ticket.

To ensure her baby can be legally registered under the father's family, I suggest we get divorced. She signs the papers and even tries to console me. "Once I've had Diego's baby, I'll come back for you."

I nod and watch her board the plane. Then, I buy a ticket in the opposite direction and take off.

In my previous life, I've been foolish enough to believe I could ever matter more to her than Diego Ford. I've even threatened to kill myself to make her stay.
