it fades to show a court hearing as we see a depressed but angry father who look toward his about to be ex-wife, who threw everything she had to prove that he was a bad person who abuse her and his children, but the man used real evidence to prove he wasn't, and he won, but it didn't make him feel proud or good, but only depressed, someone who committed her life to him, only to drop it after a one night stand he wasn't aware of, turned out she's been doing this since they got together, what a fucking joke

After the hearing, the man walks out the courthouse with his children, who he has sole custody of, and all felt heartbroken despite the win.

later at night he's seen sitting on his couch, looking lifeless, beer drinking wouldn't help, since he's basically allergic to such drinks, one of his kid, a son, walks down the stairs and sees his sad father

Son: Dad?

Dad: Hm? Yeah son?

son: are you going to be ok?

Dad:....maybe, look at him but daddy always find a way to recover, I'm strong, *tilt head* aren't I?

The son smiled

Son: Yeah, you are.

it then fades to show a couple months later as we see the man punching the bag as he was breaking some sweats as he panted a bit but feels the burn as it was great

Man: Phew!

he then wipe the sweat off as he grab his bottle of water and drinks it

Ex-wife: ahem

He look and frown

Man: Maya....

Maya: Frank.

Frank: What do you want?

Maya: I wanted to see the kids

Frank; right....where was this when they asked to call, visit, or even say hi?

Maya: I was busy when they did.

Frank: *sarcastic* Oh how convenient for you.

Maya: it's not what you think—

Frank; that you're hooking with another about to fail relationship? Sleeping with other men?

Maya: Oh screw you, Frank! Like you wouldn't be doing that now!

Frank: No I haven't! I've been more focused on my kids, and myself! You though? You only care about yourself, and yourself alone.

He noticed that she doesn't even look healthy

Frank: not only that, but you seem to let yourself go

Maya: Sh-Shut up! No I haven't!

Frank: I'm not the one growing a spare tire full of cake, and beer.

Maya groaned

Maya; can I see my kids?

Frank; "our" kids, Maya, and beside, they're with their grandmother in Florida for the summer, I told you already before hand in texts

Maya: I didn't see that text!

Frank: Did you delete it, or ignore it because it was from me?

Maya: I....*drop hands*

Frank: when are you going to listen to me, Maya, I'm trying to give you a chance to be a mother to Ian and Kate, and you're not even going to take the chance

Maya didn't know what to say.

Frank: *sighs* be better, Maya, for them

He then walks away
