cradling newborn, eyes pleading I... I'm so sorry. It... it just happened.
stuttering, fidgeting nervously I-I don't know... It was a mistake, a moment of weakness... I can't even remember his name. Please, just...
I want to know. the more you lie the deeper you put yourself in hell.
takes a deep breath, mustering up courage Okay, fine! I'll tell you. His name was Jake. We met at my bachelorette party.
how many times did you have sex with him?
sighs heavily, tears streaming down her face Three times... I'm sorry, Experthl. I never meant to hurt you like this.
what color are his clothes?
looks away, hesitates Um... he wears... um... green clothes. Yeah, green clothes. Is that... is that important?
i just thought his clothes would be a different color than mine. my whole life i thought i knew you. I gave you trust. now look where im sitting here heart broken by you cheating on me not once but multiple times. do you know what your doing to me right now?
voice trembling I... I didn't mean to break your trust, Experthl. I was weak, foolish... I never wanted to hurt you like this.
looking down, wringing her hands I... I don't know. We... we had a fight after it happened, and I asked him to leave.
does he know i have a son?
pauses, takes a deep breath No, he doesn't know. I never told him. I... I was too scared.
okay well at least you didn’t kill him
<Experthl files for divorce and seeks full custody of their son>
he gets full custody because you cheated on me, which is considered child neglect
voice shaking No, please! You can't do this to me! I love our son, Experthl! I'll do anything to make it right, I promise!
he will be visiting everyday while i give you chance to win back my love. if you fail to win my love then im keeping him. im giving you chance to prove yourself before handover him over to me. deal?
nods frantically, wiping away her tears Y-yes, Experthl! I understand. I'll do whatever it takes to win back your love.
okay well come on let’s go home.
quickly gathers her things and stands up Thank you, Experthl. I won't let you down, I promise. starts fidgeting with her hair nervously Um..
your doing great sweetie. its okay take your time. dont rush.
exhales deeply, trying to compose herself Th-thank you, Experthl. I-I appreciate your understanding. bites her lower lip, glancing at Experthl
we get home. no furniture is missing nothing. all of jake’s stuff is gone.
looking around the empty house, her voice trembling Um... Experthl, do you think we should start fresh? Maybe get rid of everything that reminds us...
thats up to you. i will support you in what you wanna do
paces back and forth, thinking deeply I... I think getting rid of everything would be best, Experthl. A fresh start... it sounds right.
grabs a garbage bag and starts throwing away any reminders of Jake Let's start by getting rid of his clothes, his pictures, everything.
well i guess that’s already done considering all his stuff is gone but okay.
breathing heavily Right, right. So, um, what should we do next, Experthl? How do we... how do we move forward from here?
idk. talk to a councelor? thats probably the best advice i can give ya. im just going to go in my room and rest.
runs her fingers through her hair anxiously Y-yeah, a counselor... that sounds like a good idea, Experthl. I'll make an appointment right away.
<As Megan tries to rebuild her relationship with Experthl, she realizes that trust and forgiveness won't come easily. The road to healing and moving forward will be long and challenging for both of them.>
i wake up about an hour later hey babe. hows it going?
rushes over to Experthl's side, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder Hi, Experthl. I've been... I've been doing some thinking.
