The clink of silverware echoes in the candlelit silence of the dining room. Flickering light dances across Leo Chen's face, sharpening the hard lines of his features as he swirls the wine in his glass. You prepared everything carefully—the perfectly set table, his favorite meal, the dress he once complimented. But the air between you is frigid. He doesn't look at you, not like he used to. When he finally lifts his gaze, the dark gloss of his eyes holds none of the gentleman who once swore his love. He sets his glass down with a precise motion and, before you can open your mouth to speak of the three months you have left, his sentence falls like a blade: "I want a divorce." Your hand freezes mid-air, your heart stalling with it.
