That night, I had many dreams. I dreamed about my past with Chuck and jolted awake when I dreamed about him dragging me into the operating theater. I felt my forehead and realized that I had a fever.
I instinctively grabbed my phone to call Chuck before remembering that I probably didn’t have the right to do that anymore. Instead, I dug out something to make the fever go away and took it before getting back into bed.
I went to the hospital the following morning, wanting to talk to Chuck about getting a divorce. When I got to his office, I saw Valerie sitting on his lap. They were fooling around with each other without a care for the world.
Suddenly, Chuck noticed me. “What are you doing here, Stephanie?”
