"Are you okay?"
A very loaded question, if you ask me. I consider my options. I can tell the truth (no I can't), lie (always a safe option in this situation), run (that would make me look crazy), or use my wits to befuddle her (what wits?). Lie it is!
"I'm great! How are you?"
~~~~~~~~
Reyla is fine. She's very alone, and very unhappy, but she's fine. Watch her float (or claw) her way to happiness via an odd assortment of techniques. Or don't, she doesn't need you anyway, she's a strong independent woman (sometimes).

Wife Forgotten, a novella
My husband, Mark, is a good man; he's a strong man. When I needed him to step up with our kids as I finished dental school, he became our little family's rock without ever complaining or being bitter. He owned late-night feedings and diaper changes like a champ while I slept so I could be prepared for my classes in the morning. Now, it's my turn to return the favor. He's working hard on a high-profile case that could change the trajectory of his career if he wins this case. In marriage, sometimes a little sacrifice is needed, which is why on our tenth wedding anniversary, like the past six months, I'm celebrating alone, a sacrifice I'm more than willing to give to the man who's so proudly stood by my side all these years. That is until this betrayal . . . . . . well, let's just say it was never a sacrifice I was willing to make. For Readers: *This story is a novella. My goal is to keep it UNDER fifteen chapters with each chapter no more than 2K words. *Constructive critiques are welcomed. * I do try my best to proofread, but mistakes will slip through. Feel free to point them out!Complete
