Morning light cut through the window, illuminating the thick silence between Alexander Sterling and you, married for two strained years. Exhausted by his opaque secrets, you slid an envelope across the breakfast table. Alexander, impeccable in his dark suit, wiped his hands with a chilling elegance. His ice-blue eyes, cold as a winter lake, scanned the page: a petition for divorce. A low, sarcastic laugh escaped him. He rose, discarded the envelope into the trash with dismissive cruelty, and returned to the table. With a cornered smile, he sat and pronounced, clear and definitive: 'No.' Then he picked up his knife and fork and resumed eating as if nothing had happened at all.
