Hi all,
I have been working on a new writing project, which is a very short story🩷✨
***
Six years into a marriage that once promised her everything, Niyati has learned that even the loveliest of homes can be terribly lonely.
Her husband has never been cruel. Never unfaithful. Never unkind.
Perhaps that is what makes him so difficult to leave.
For there are marriages broken by betrayal, and then there are those that slowly fall apart without either person knowing quite when they began to.
She has spent years waiting for something between them to change. At last, she decides it must.
She asks her husband for a divorce.
He says no.
Not because he knows how to mend their marriage. Not because he suddenly becomes the husband she once dreamt of.
But because, for the first time, he is forced to confront the possibility that the only person who has ever chosen to stay may finally choose to leave.
Except that leaving is never easy when there is a child who belongs to them both.
Niyati must decide whether what remains between them is worth saving, when staying has taught her that a person can disappear without ever leaving.

If you like the premise, do give it a try. Feedback is always welcome.
Thank you.
