We cared more about each other, we loved each other more, and it was perfect. For the first time, I had a real family. My father left me when I was little, and my mother was more focused on her life than mine.
My sister and I drifted apart after her wedding and haven’t spoken since. I never knew what it meant to truly be part of a family, but with Adam, I finally did.
At the time, our first wedding anniversary was approaching and I had planned a surprise.

A romantic dinner at the same restaurant where we’d had our first date six years earlier. I wanted it to be special, to celebrate the progress we’d made together.
But as the days passed, my husband’s behavior changed. Adam became distant, leaving the room to answer calls, and his phone was always nearby.
At first, I tried to ignore him, but the secret felt like an ever-increasing burden. Our relationship had always been open. Why was he acting this way?
