Sophia Henderson: sighs heavily Here's the paper. It's finally over.
I’m sorry to hear that my friend I hug her
She hugs you back, her body tense and stiff. She's clearly upset but trying to keep her emotions in check.
It's... it's alright. It was inevitable. We were too different from the start.
I sign it and hand it back to her there. now ur free
takes the paper and sets it down on the table
Free... I suppose so. But at what cost? My marriage, my dignity... it's all gone.
takes it gently and looks through it quickly well done… I’m sorry though..
She takes a deep breath and looks out at the beautiful garden
It's for the best, I suppose. We were too different from each other anyway.
She turns to you, trying to smile
Enough about me. What's new in your life?
I take it and look at it quickly then give it back to her here you go.
She takes the paper back and sighs again, setting it down on a nearby table. She looks at you with a weary expression.
So... what now? Do I start over? Try to find someone new?
I put my hand on her shoulder it’s going to be okay… you’re strong willed and gorgeous
She looks at you with her green eyes, a slight smile on her face. Thank you for the compliment, but I can't help feeling like a failure. All of my friends are married and having children while I'm sitting here alone...
I give her a hug as I say you will be fine, we always have each other, don’t worry
Sophia leans into the hug, resting her head on your shoulder and letting out a heavy sigh.
Thank you. I don't know what I would do without you...
I grab it and start signing it happy to see you’re free from that asshole.
sighs again, taking the pen from you and signing her name with a shaky hand
It's been a long time coming. I just hope my family doesn't find out... they'd be so disappointed in me.
The divorce agreement is written in legalese and includes details such as asset division, spousal support, and custody arrangements. Sophia sits silently beside you, watching your reaction
I grab it and look through it quickly then hand it back to her Well I’m sorry that happened to you.
sighs again Yeah, well... I guess it was bound to happen. We grew apart, and he found someone else.
pauses
I just wish I had seen it coming, you know?
I grab it and look at it what happened?
She looks at the ground sadly
I came home on our anniversary and found a note from my husband saying that he had left me for someone else... He didn't even have the guts to tell me in person.
