My Husband Chose Business Over Us — Karma Followed

When John, our two-year-old son Ethan, and I boarded a flight to visit his parents, I expected a challenging trip. What I didn’t expect was for John to “disappear” into Business Class, leaving me alone to juggle Ethan in Economy. “I need some peace and quiet,” he shrugged when I confronted him, as if abandoning me with our restless toddler was nothing. I sat through one of the hardest flights of my life while imagining him sipping champagne up front..

When we arrived, John proudly told his parents how “fantastic” Business Class was. His father, Jacob, said nothing — but I noticed the look in his eyes. The next night, just before our traditional family dinner, Jacob pulled John aside. “You’ll stay here and prepare the house for your brother and the other guests,” he said firmly. “Tonight, you’ll learn what it feels like to be left behind.”

John protested, but his father didn’t budge. That was only the beginning. For the rest of the week, Jacob handed John a list of chores: mowing, painting, cleaning. While Ethan and I enjoyed outings with Grandma, John worked from dawn till dusk. By the end of the week, he was exhausted and remorseful. “I’m so sorry, Claire,” he whispered one night. “I see now how much I took you for granted.”

But Jacob wasn’t done. At the airport for our return flight, John discovered his ticket had been swapped.
“Claire and Ethan will fly Business Class this time,” Jacob told him. “You’ll manage on your own.” John’s face fell. For the first time, he truly understood what I had endured and why family should always come first.
