"I want a divorce," Eddward said in a hushed tone looking down at his feet. Standing in the doorway of the kitchen, Eddward was dressed in his typical everyday attire: dress pants, a dress shirt, and a comfortable cardigan; however, his usual bright and alluring personality seemed to dull and dissipate the more he spoke and averted his eyes. Leaning against the kitchen counter with a glass of water in his hand, Kevin nodded his head without giving Eddward the common courtesy of looking at him. The air between them began to thin and turn cold. Neither one of them said anything and just choose to face the hand that reality dealt them.
Looking at the clock, it was way past nine even though it was evident that Eddward just came home from work. As much as Kevin wanted to deny it, Eddward was coming home later and later every day, and it was probably his fault; like everything else. Looking down at his feet, Kevin stared at the floor as if it would give him all the answers that he needed and would somehow salvage his marriage. It was falling apart at a rapid pace and no matter how fast Kevin and Eddward tried to put it back together, it just kept falling into smaller pieces that slipped from their hands. It was exhausting. The constant fights, disagreements, and loss of connection was getting to be too much. Their strength and patience was slowly depleting and everything was just going downhill.
No matter how hard they tried to rekindle their love there was no hope for salvation.
"I'm going to stay at Edd's for a while," Eddward said before turning around and walking out the room. Gripping the glass too hard, Kevin began to feel the glass give way and sharp shards dig into his skin. In one quick movement, the glass flew across the room and shattered against the wall, just like his heart.
