Abstract

In the three years we were married, Natalie kept the word divorce tucked on the tip of her tongue, ready to draw like a pocketknife.

I couldn’t begin to count how many times I had heard her say it. Every minor friction, every late night at the office, every disagreement over where to spend Thanksgiving—she would drop it into the conversation with a bored, practiced flick of her wrist. And every single time, I was the one who caved. I was the one who lowered my eyes, swallowed whatever dignity I had left, murmured apologies, and coaxed her back from the ledge.

Until tonight.
