The next morning, Elara felt uneasy. She noticed a small, folded note on her bedside. She opened it with hesitant hands. ‘Elara, I have fallen in love with Liora. I apologize, but I need to be with her. The note stated, “We have to end this.” It was signed simply ‘Caden.’ Elara felt numb. Caden’s beloved husband was not the one speaking, but a stranger.

Elara ripped the note in half with shaking hands, allowing the pieces to flutter to the ground. ‘I will not let him break me,’ she said to herself. She needed to be stronger than ever. Elara gathered her last power and resolved to press forward. She would gradually recreate her life, ensuring that Caden regretted his decision.
