"You know Ethan is very fragile right now. Why did you lie to me about coming home?" Olivia's voice was filled with impatience over the phone. "And you say you have a high fever? How can a grown man like you get sick so easily? Can you stop being so childish?" I could almost imagine her expression of disgust, disdain, and even contempt. Breathing heavily, I endured the pain throughout my body. I was full of anger, but when I opened my mouth, I felt like I couldn't say anything. What's the use of saying anything anyway? "You've really disappointed me. I'm not coming home tonight, that's final!" The call was disconnected. She's doing it again, planning to stay at the hospital to take care of him all night. Then she'll sleep by his hospital bed, waiting for his every command. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes at the hospital, I probably wouldn't have believed that my wife was at the hospital every day taking care of another man. Even the nurses were moved by it. When they showed me the way, they introduced them as the most loving and faithful couple they'd ever seen. This is too ridiculous! Thinking about this, I weakly put down my phone and lay on the living room floor, staring blankly at the ceiling light. It was a bit dazzling. In my daze, I remembered our wedding day, when she held Ethan's hand with red eyes. I saw her abandoning me during our dates to comfort him when he was in a bad mood. And on countless nights, her body would shy away as soon as I got close. She said she was very traditional and a bit afraid of such things, that we needed to take it slow. Even now, we still haven't made any progress. In our relationship, she's always held the upper hand. Whether we're close or distant depends entirely on her mood. The fever made my head hot, my thoughts were in disarray. In my confusion, I lost consciousness. When I woke up again, I felt sore all over. Fortunately, the fever had subsided. After a quick shower, I felt like I had regained some energy, but I was still weak. I called in sick to work. My usually strict boss told me to rest well and take care of my health. I was a bit surprised. Just then, the door opened. Olivia came home looking slightly tired. Seeing that I wasn't seriously ill, she said mockingly, "Weren't you sick?" I ignored her sarcasm and just took a sip of warm water, enjoying the feeling of new life. "Cat got your tongue?" Seeing that I didn't speak, she crossed her arms, looking like she was waiting for an explanation. "Let's get a divorce."
