The 100% Lie

For ten years, I lived my perfect California dream.

A tech CEO husband, a brilliant son, a sprawling mansion, and a System telling me my husband' s affection was a solid 100%.

This was my hard-earned reward, my permanent escape from a gray Ohio past.

Then the doorbell rang and everything shattered.

Standing there was Chloe Davis, Mark' s college sweetheart, looking unsettlingly like me.

My shy son, Leo, ran and hugged her, crying, "Aunt Chloe!"

My smile vanished.

My perfect life spiraled into a nightmare.
