The divorce process began a few months later, and while it wasn’t a fast or easy journey, I navigated it with a firm hand and a clear mind. I returned to the career goals I had abandoned to support Wyatt’s family and finally felt like the captain of my own ship once again.
My mother never once uttered a word of “I told you so,” but she remained my steady rock, proving that true strength is often found in the quietest people. I learned that a marriage doesn’t usually fall apart during one big fight, but rather during all the small moments where a woman chooses to stay silent just to keep the peace.
THE END.
