They blamed each other.
Every time I asked who had started it, I got a different answer.
Eventually I stopped asking.
Because it didn’t matter.
The first kiss didn’t matter.
The first message didn’t matter.
Who suggested the hotel didn’t matter.
Nine years of choices had brought us to the same place.
The marriage was over.
One night, Callan sat across from me at the kitchen table.
“Is there anything I can do?”
I looked at him.
“Yes.”
“What?”
“Be a good father.”
His eyes filled.
“I will.”
“Don’t make the children carry what we did.”
“I won’t.”
“Don’t tell them their mother broke up the family.”
“I won’t.”
“Don’t tell them your aunt—”
I stopped.
He understood.
“I won’t.”
I nodded.
“That is the one thing you can still get right.”
In November, we separated.
Not dramatically.
There was no screaming.
No smashed plates.
No police.
Just boxes.
Silence.
A spare room.
A new set of keys.
And a marriage ending one ordinary Tuesday at a time.
PART 8 — AFTER
Sasha and Bram divorced in the spring.
She moved into a flat in Thornby.
My parents still see her.
I don’t ask about her.
We haven’t spoken in fourteen months.
