I have taken everything I wanted, the rest is yours. The rent is paid through the end of next month when our lease expires. I informed the landlord I would not be renewing it. I took half of our meager savings and closed our other joint accounts.
I plan to relocate several states away. Once established, I will contact a lawyer and file for divorce. Of course, you can file anytime if you so choose, I don’t care.
I hope you enjoyed your weekend with your boss. I’m guessing you’ll get to spend a lot of time with him once his wife reads the email I sent her. I also emailed your sister and your mother because I wanted them to know why I left town.
I have no interest in hearing your excuses for what you did, so you will never see me again. I hope that eventually, I will forget you ever existed.

Linda dropped her head to the table and sobbed. Moments later her phone rang and her older sister’s photo appeared. Linda raised the phone and was about to speak when her sister cut her off.
“You dumb fucking slut! Don’t for one-second think I will let your slut ass move in with me! Mom is on the way there now and she’s fit to be tied! If I was her, I’d just tell you to fuck off! I’m sure she hasn’t told Dad yet, so good luck!
The line went dead just as her mother pushed open the door. “What the fuck, Linda? Tell me it’s not true, No daughter of mine can be that stupid!”
As Linda’s world crashed in around her, she focused on the beautiful, smiling, bride in her wedding photo. The bride seemed to be reaching toward the jagged torn edge of nothingness. Linda slowly open her hand and stared at the gold band her husband had worn for six years.
“Oh my god! It’s true! He’s gone! You stupid, stupid girl!”
Her mother’s angry voice faded and Linda’s head bounced off the table as she collapsed. She reached out but saw only blackness beyond a jagged edge at the tip of her fingertips.
