A Marriage Built on Illusions
Three years of marriage. Twelve years together.
Caught in a web of routine and comfort.
But beneath the surface, betrayal simmered.
The email, found by accident, shattered my world.
Emmett and Phoebe. Their clandestine affair.
Three years of deception, right under my nose.
Photos and messages I couldn’t unsee.
Yet, I held my silence. Forwarded it all to my secret email.
Emmett walked in. I wore my old smile.
Over dinner, he lied about another “big project deadline.”
