Between the Waves and the Light

For ten years, I pursued Daniel. In that time, I cured his disability and helped build his billion-dollar empire.

On our wedding anniversary, his obsessive lover stood on the company rooftop for the ninety-ninth time.

He said, "I'll go check on her," and later that night, he let her straddle his lap in a hotel room.

"Willow's aloofness.... it's boring."

His contemptuous laughter pierced through me.

He no longer loved me.

I turned to leave and was hit by a car, losing our unborn child.
