For years, I dreamed of the moment I’d see two pink lines. When it finally happened, I was overwhelmed with joy. I sent a message to my husband, Clay, and waited, heart pounding. But instead of a reply, I found a Kinder Surprise at the door… with a note inside: “I’m divorcing you.”
Clay didn’t come home that night. The next morning, I told his mother, Margaret, what had happened. She stunned me with a cold, cruel accusation: “That’s impossible. Clay can’t have children. You cheated.” Two weeks ago, I had passed out at a stranger’s home after eating something with alcohol—nothing happened, but I hadn’t told anyone.
That stranger, George, confirmed the truth: he helped me get home safely and nothing else occurred. But Margaret had already poisoned Clay against me. When he finally returned, she revealed she had planted the divorce note, convinced I was unfaithful. Clay believed her lies—and kicked me out.
Devastated but determined, I turned to our family doctor. Her findings were clear: Clay was perfectly fertile. He’d lied. Whether out of fear, selfishness, or control—I may never know. But I did know this: I wasn’t the one who broke us. Months later, with George by my side and our newborn in my arms, I realized I hadn’t lost a family—I’d found the right one.
