The Last Ten Days

Summary

In the third year of Julian's infidelity, the long-lost system reappeared, telling me I could go home.

In the final ten days, I stopped arguing and fighting with him.

I let him spend nights out with his canary.

I let him give things I cared about to her.

On the day I left, it was my birthday.

He rushed in with the canary, knocking over my cake, strangling me and pinning me against the window.

Questioning why I harmed their child.

"When did you become so vicious?"

I smiled, too lazy to explain.

"Yes, I am that vicious."

"So, live well with her."
