I wanted to scream at her.
She continued. “We’re having a child. He wants to be with me. Dragging this out isn’t helping anyone.”
I looked at Tyler. “Is that what you think too?”
He didn’t answer quickly.
But eventually he nodded. “Our marriage has been over for a while.”
That was news to me.
We had eaten dinner together Thursday.
We had watched a movie in bed Friday night.
He had kissed me goodbye that morning.
Apparently, my marriage had ended without anyone bothering to notify me.
Tyler said, “We can still be good parents to Mason.”
Mason heard his name.
He looked up. “You’re leaving us?”
Tyler stepped toward him. “Mason…”
My son backed away. “Don’t touch me.”
Tyler froze. I knew it was time to leave.
I grabbed our bags.
“We’re going home.”
“Please, let me explain things to him.”
“You already did.”
I took Mason downstairs and bought him ice cream because I had absolutely no idea what else to do.
