Bethany’s Divorce Truth 💔
The night air on Bourbon Street buzzed with laughter and music, but Bethany’s mind was miles away. She walked past the glowing bars and neon lights, pretending to smile while her heart carried a storm no one could see. Everyone thought she was just “showing out” again — new outfit, new confidence, new man maybe — but behind that glossy look was the truth she’d buried deep since the day Larry walked out.
Larry hadn’t left because of another woman. That’s what most people assumed. But the real reason was darker — quieter. Something that ate away at them both until love turned into distance.
It started small — arguments about Brooke, Larry’s daughter. Bethany tried to fit in, to be the calm in Larry’s chaotic world. But Brooke never accepted her. One night, Brooke overheard Bethany saying something she shouldn’t have — a private frustration twisted into something cruel by rumor. The next morning, Larry looked at Bethany differently. He didn’t yell. He just went silent. That silence stretched into weeks.
Bethany thought time would fix it. Instead, Larry invited Greg — his old friend — over for dinner without telling her. That night, she caught them talking about her like she wasn’t even in the room. Greg said she wasn’t “wife material,” and Larry didn’t defend her. He just sat there, eyes down, like guilt was easier than truth.
The next day, he told her quietly, “You’re strong, Beth… but Brooke needs peace. And right now, you bring storms.” Then he walked away — no fight, no goodbye, just the sound of the door closing on five years of love.
Months later, Bethany still wears that silence like perfume — something people smell before they see her. Everyone thinks she’s healed. But every time she walks past a father and daughter laughing together, her eyes burn.
And yet, she’s not done. Deep down, she knows Larry’s not telling everything. There’s something he’s hiding — something about Brooke, about that night she overheard their fight. Bethany’s ready to find out what it is, even if the truth breaks her all over again
