I pulled the corners of my mouth and responded, “How can I compare to you? You just asked for a divorce last night and now you have a new look.”
Nina seemed to not understand the sarcasm in my tone, or maybe she understood it but didn't care.
She looked at her freshly painted nails with a lazy and satisfied expression.
“People always want a better life. Is there a problem with me wanting a better life?”
"No, but it's the first time I've seen someone resort to cheating to get a better life."
I couldn't hide the mockery in my tone, and Nina's expression changed when she heard it.
She put her hand down and looked at me, then walked towards the courtroom.
"Compared to the end, the process is unimportant."
I watched Nina's graceful figure and suddenly realized that the girl who used to blush when she asked me math questions back then had unknowingly disappeared for so long.
It didn't take long to get a divorce, and the six years of affection between us disappeared completely in just six minutes.
Beside us were young couples holding marriage certificates. Their faces were filled with happy smiles.
Two years ago, Nina and I were like that too.
