As I near my due date, my heart is heavy with sorrow. I’m torn between welcoming my baby and divorcing my husband, Daniel. We’ve been married for five years, and things seemed perfect—until recently.
Daniel often brushed off my fears about fire, despite the trauma I endured when my childhood home burned down. I always double-checked things before bed to ensure our safety, but Daniel dismissed my concerns as paranoia. Then, two nights ago, he and his friends played a cruel prank on me, yelling “Fire!” to scare me, triggering my deepest fear.
I confronted him, and though he apologized, the damage was done. I felt hurt and betrayed. Seeking comfort, I called my dad, who immediately came to support me. I left with him, and my dad expressed how upset he was with Daniel’s actions.
The next morning, I filed for divorce, realizing I couldn’t stay in a relationship where my fears were treated as jokes. Daniel’s apologies came too late. I knew I had to protect myself and my child. Now, I’m left wondering if I made the right choice. Should I stand firm in my decision, or reconsider?
