It’s my job to face the consequences of my actions.
My exhale is choppier than it should be.
I’m doing the right thing.
My heart gives a sad thud.
And I give it a moment. Because sometimes doing the right thing hurts.

I yawnas I pour myself a mug of coffee.
Then scroll through sports news on my phone as I pad over to the living room.
There’s nothing I really have to do today, so I might as well catch up on emails.
Eyeing my full coffee mug, I snag my laptop off the coffee table in front of the couch and head to the dining table.
I feel a weird mix of tired and nervous, and I don’t know why.
It’s that fucking dream.
Lowering into a chair, I set my mug down and then use my laptop to nudge a folder out of the way.
I roll my neck out while I open my laptop.
Then I stare at the screen.
It’s the page for a resort in Mexico.
Theresort.
Was Natalie looking at this?
Does she want to go back?
I scroll the page and smile when I see the name of the suite she was looking at.
If she hasn’t already booked this room for us, I’m going to.
When I move the cursor, something else catches my attention.
The text thread with my cousin.
That nervous feeling inside me transforms into dread.
Mistake marriage.
Divorce.
Talk to her.
I look from the texts to the website.
Natalie was on this computer.
