For our fifth wedding anniversary, my husband baked a cake for me from scratch. I was just about to break the news of my pregnancy to him when his phone screen lit up. "Tonight at nine, our usual place. I miss you." He kissed my forehead and claimed there was an urgent matter at the office. I smiled, adjusted his collar, and didn't call him out. That night, he rushed off to be with his mistress. I took off my wedding ring, packed up my ultrasound scan, and walked out of the home we had shared for five years. After he got back, he called me frantically all night. But the woman who used to always ask what time he'd be home was already gone.
