The last few minutes that will lead towards a change between us. I might regret this one day but I've made up my mind already.

When I got home that night as my wife, Lalice was serving dinner, I held her hand and said,

"I've got something to tell you"  She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.

Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking.

"I want a divorce." I raised the topic calmly. She didn't seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly,

"why V?" I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me,

"You are not a man!" then she walked out and went to our room.

That night, we didn't talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer;

She just had lost my heart to Irene. I don't love her anymore. Right now, I just only felt pity on her.

With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company.

She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent five years of her life with me had become a stranger.

I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I love Irene now so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see.

To me, her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.

I've already decided and I don't have a plan to take my decision back.
