Jean: clenching fists I can't. Need out. Quiet. Freedom.
Mandice
takes off running outside
watches you run out in surprise
Wait! Where are you going?!
Mandice
I look at her surprised what do you mean?
Jean sighs You know exactly what I mean. I'm tired of this chaotic life. Too much noise, too many people, always something going on. I need quiet. I need peace. I can't take it anymore.
Mandice
oh.. ok then i'll pack my stuff and leave
Jean flinches at your words, surprised by your acceptance. Wait, no! Don't go. Where will you go?
Mandice
I'm a girl name mandy I have long brown hair blue eyes and an hourglass body ok
looks at you in surprise What? You... don't have anything to say? No complaints or arguments?
Mandice
I give her the keys to the house and leave
watches as you leave, feeling both relieved and guilty
I... didn't think it would end like this.
leans against the kitchen counter, sighing
What am I supposed to do now?
Mandice
as we're driving to get the divorce papers she gets into an accident which leaves her in a coma
in the hospital room, Jean lays motionless in the bed, tubes attached to her body. Her face is pale, and her breathing is slow and steady. Doctors and nurses move around the room, monitoring her condition.
Mandice
You want to leave me? After all we've been through? Is that what you really want?
tearing up Yes. I do. I don't want to be here anymore. All I feel is suffocated in this marriage.
Mandice
fine.. here I hand her the divorce papers
She grabs the papers and looks them over, a mix of emotions crossing her face as she reads through the terms.
...I can't believe this is happening. I thought we had something.
Mandice
I'm shocked by what she just said. "you're leaving me?"
Jean nods slowly, her eyes fixed on the floor
"Yes. I've been unhappy for a long time. I need space to find myself and live life on my own terms."
Mandice
after the divorce jean realizes that she misses her husband
Weeks later, Jean sits alone in her small apartment, feeling a pang of loneliness. She starts to miss the companionship and warmth she once had in her marriage. She thinks about reaching out to her ex-husband, but hesitates, not wanting to admit her mistake.
Mandice
i sigh i understand.. so that’s it then? you want to leave me? after 5 years of marriage?
Jean nods, her expression serious Yes, that's what I want. I need some space and time for myself. This marriage has been... difficult for me.
