I finally scored the World Cup tickets my fiancé, Louis, had been dying to get. I was thrilled and about to tell him the good news when I overheard his friend talking to him: "Skyler turned down a design gig at Milan Fashion Week just to be with you, and now you’re giving the ticket to Monica? That’s a dick move, man." Louis just chuckled, his tone dismissive. "Watching it with her is boring. You know I’m used to having Monica around for every World Cup." So he had already gotten tickets, and he never planned on taking me. The realization hit me then: for the past twelve years, every single World Cup, he had been by Monica’s side. Every time their team scored, she was the first person he hugged to celebrate. Back then, he would coax me: "Monica and I grew up together. I’m just used to it—she was around long before you were. Don't be mad, okay? Next time, I promise it’ll just be you and me." Suddenly, I just felt exhausted. I tore up the tickets, canceled our marriage registration scheduled for next month, packed my bags, and booked a flight back to my hometown for the very next day. This time, I was the one walking away.

Olivia Bennett took the fall for her husband Ethan Parker’s “murder charge.” After being sent to Cancún, her passport was stolen, and she lost contact with her husband and their one-month-old son for five years. After enduring immense hardship, she returned to San Francisco, only to find that her son Leo was already calling Ethan’s former fiancée Claire “Mom.” Ethan was not only living with Claire, but also forcing the physically weak Olivia to give blood transfusions to save her.
