The Better One

Summary

At dinner, my husband suddenly asked me, "What would you do if I met someone... better than you?"

I was quiet for a moment.

"Then you should be with her. We can get a divorce."

What he didn't know was that I had already seen him.

I had already watched him frantically comfort that other girl, her eyes red from crying.

I had already heard him say, "Don't cry. I'll give you a future."
