"Orion, you're amazing. You're such a good kid, always willing to share," Nina praised her son, quick to reinforce
his positive traits.
As a mother, all she wanted was for her son and daughter to grow up getting along, supporting one another.
After all, besides their parents, they were each other's closest family.
Nash held Gemma in his arms, pacing around the living room a couple of times before finally placing her back in
the cradle under Mrs. Watson's care. With dinner ready, the three of them headed to the dining room, sharing
laughter and stories over the meal. After dinner, Orion ran off to watch cartoons, while Nina, with stto
herself, picked up her phone. She opened her messages and was taken aback to see Lydia's response: "Next
Monday, I'm meeting Quincy at the county courthouse. We're getting a divorce." Nina could hardly believe her
eyes. Just recently, Lydia had shared the news of her pregnancy and now she was talking about divorce? It
seemed so surreal. For a moment, Nina wondered if Lydia's account had been hacked or if this was all part of a
game. "Are you joking? That's not funny. Divorce is serious. You can't just throw that word around."

"I'm not joking. I'm serious about the divorce, and nothing will change my mind," Lydia replied, holding her
phone and feeling weighed down by her frustration.
She couldn't talk to her parents about it, they would only praise Eugene, hinting that she should move on and
forget Quincy.
She wasn't ready to discuss it with other friends either. After sthought, she realized Nina was the only
person she could open up to, especially since Nina, with two kids of her own, might understand her feelings.
"If you have stime, can we talk over video call?"
Curious about what was really going on, Nina headed back to her bedroom, shut the door, and started a video
call.
Lydia's face appeared on the screen almost immediately. She looked thinner, more exhausted than the last time
they had met. Seeing her like that made Nina's heart ache.
"What's going on? Did you two have a fight?"
But that didn't seem right. They were
a married couple. Even if they argued, a little compromise on both sides would smooth things over. Lydia looked
so worn out. How could Quincy be indifferent to her suffering?
"I wish it was just a fight. At least we could reconcile afterward. But we're
Pol
done. Next Monday, we'll file for divorce, wait out the cooling-off period, and once we have the papers, we'll be
finished for good." Lydia spoke with every bit of strength she had, but her words were drenched in exhaustion.
The end of the relationship had left her reeling, and though she tried to forget, the pain surged back, especially
at night.

"Lydia, we're close friends, and
you've helpedso much. If you
trust me, tellwhat's going on.
Maybe | can help." Nina didn't want to jump to conclusions or offer
advice without knowing the
fall
story.
Needing an outlet, Lydia began to share everything, from the relentless challenges with Mrs. Perez to the
heartbreak over their child.
Toward the end, she even stood up to show Nina her belly.
