He went to the bathroom, but his phone rang on the bed.
I had never checked his phone before, but this time, I couldnt help myself.
I remembered Isabellas birthday and entered the numbers.
Sure enough, the phone was unlocked.
My heart raced as I opened Facebook and saw messages from his other account to Bella.
Bella: [Daniel, Im divorced now.
Ill come see you tomorrow.
Pick me up at 9 AM.] I marked the message as unread, but I couldnt resist checking out his posts.
Almost everything was about Isabella.

It almost felt like a diary.
[Bella wore the dress I bought her today.
She looked so beautiful.
I miss her so much.] [Bella got mad at me today over something I said.
I had to write a love letter to cheer her up.] [Bella never forgets me.
She sent me flowers today.
Im totally smitten.] … As I read them, I felt a lump in my throat.
Daniel had never written any love letters to me.
He always said, I hate typing.

Its all meaningless.
Why do you care about that? I had thought it was just his personality, but now I realized that I was just not worth the effort.
I put the phone back and lay down, staring at the ceiling.
Tears welled up in my eyes.
I suppressed the bitterness and called my best friend, Sarah Garcia.
Im coming to your studio in three days.
Train me to paint, I said, giving myself three days to handle the divorce.
Daniel came out of the shower.
I ended the call and pretended to be asleep, not wanting his affection.

He checked if I was really asleep before sending a voice message to Isabella.
[Im so happy.
I can finally see you tomorrow.
Ill be there on time.] [I bought the necklace you love.
Its your welcome gift.] The day he had gone to buy the necklace was our wedding anniversary.
For Isabella, he had left me behind.
I shut my eyes tightly, pushing my annoyance into the corner of my mind.
Daniel, on the other hand, was too excited to sleep and kept messaging Isabella.
