"Why? Tell me why you want out of this marriage, Kat? Have I in any way mistreated you?"
"No. It's just that I don't - "
Have I ever hit you?"
"No! I just don't - "
"Have I not been supportive of you when your life was in tatters? Have I not helped you finish your degree?"
"Yes, absolutely. You're right about all that. You've been great. That is why this is so hard, Jack. But it's something I have got to do."
"After all I've done for you, Kat?" His eyes glass up and his shoulders sag. Slowly he lowers himself on the edge of the bed.
"Jack, I'm living a lie by ... pretending to love you, and that ... that is eating me up, Jack. I'm a shell these days. When last did you see me cry? Huh? I live in a state of numbness. I take four antidepressants a day to cope. Every single day!"
He gets to his feet and paces, tapping his palms to his head. "I can't believe you are doing this to me. Can't believe... "
***FREE ON KINDLE UNLIMITED***
"Another unputdownable book by my now favourite author. It takes a brilliant author to make me laugh out loud, ry, and keep me in such suspense that I have to stay awake all night until the book is finished." Amazon Reviewer

"I'm sorry, I'm being honest with you, Jack. I no longer love you. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."
He stares at me, unblinking.
"I'm sorry... "
"You no longer love me."
"I'm sorry."
With a nod, he strides over to the closet, reaches in and brings out his .38. I watch in horror as he puts the gun to his temple. "If you're not in my life, I don't wanna live, Kat."
"Jack, please ... put ... the... gun... DOWN!"
"I love you so much, Kat, that without you ... without you, Kat, I won't be whole and... and it's best I end it now."
"NO!"
With his eyes on me, he cocks the revolver.
