---- Before he left, he called out, "Just head home, okay? I'll be back tonight." With that, he drove off, leaving me by the side of the road without a second thought about how I'd get home. He didn't care that I'd just been discharged from. the hospital myself. His concern for Macy at the hospital was apparently greater than his guilt toward me. Then again, Randall didn't even know we'd lost a child. Randall didn't come home that night. Not that it surprised me. There was a time when I'd wait up for him, his favorite dishes carefully prepared. Not anymore. ---- Now, I sat curled up on the couch, reviewing our shared finances. My lawyer had already told me that Randall was the one at fault in the marriage. That would work in my favor during the division of assets. Ialso reached out to a few private investigators to gather evidence of Randall's infidelity. I wasn't the type to pine over lost love. If love couldn't support me, then money would. Since Macy wanted this trash of a man so badly, she could have him. After all, she seemed to enjoy recycling garbage. I thought back to when I held Randall's hand and asked playfully, "Randall, will you love me forever?" He tapped my nose with mock exasperation. " What kind of question is that? Of course, I'll love you forever!" ---- My breath hitched. Even though I knew men could not be trusted, his sweet words melted something soft inside me.
