Tested to the Brink

My wife was an absolute drama queen. Every few days, she’d come up with some twisted, agonizing way to test my love.

One day, she hired a stunning model to lure me to a hotel room while she hid under the bed, listening in.

The next, she showed me a forged medical report claiming she had contracted HIV, only confessing the truth three days later.

Later, she dressed a mannequin in her clothes and threw it off a balcony, staging her own suicide. My heart nearly stopped, and the whole neighborhood ended up laughing at me.

I was already pushed to the brink of utter exhaustion.
