On New Year’s Eve, I cooked a whole spread, waiting for my husband to come home so we could count down together.

But he texted:

“Emergency at work. Business trip for two months.”

Around midnight, his ex posted on Instagram.

There she was-all smiles, holding Caspian’s hand on some beach in Bali.

A minute later, Caspian called.

Chapter 1

I’d always been the one who cared about stuff like this-gifts, anniversaries.

I never missed a single one!

Even when he did.

The air between us felt awkward.

I got up, went to the closet, changed my clothes.

“Where are you going?”

I didn’t turn around. “Meeting some friends.”

I shut the door behind me, ignoring him calling my name.

Back when we first got together, Caspian told me he didn’t like me “running around” with my friends.

So I rejected most parties.

Eventually, they stopped inviting me.

They all thought I was boring now. Tied down. Whipped.

Tonight, I could finally hang out with my best friend.
