Too Late For Us?

[mrbt]

Just got the news. The new divorce hearing date is Tuesday, April 20. Wife invited me over for coffee this morning. I could tell something was bothering her. She was very fidgety. She asked me to lay in bed with her and then she gave me the news . . .

M: "You're sad today. What's wrong?"
W: "I called my attorney yesterday"
M: "Yeah?"
W: (silent)
M: "Did you reschedule the hearing?"
W" "Yes"
M: "When is it?"
W" "Tuesday"
M: "Is this why your face broke out with acne yesterday?"
W: "I guess so . . ."
M: "Hmmmm?"
W: "And, I am having shortness of breath at work."
M/W: (conversation related to wife's counseling and issues being stirred up as a result)
W: "I need to stay with you today - feeling unstable."
M: "Let's go to my place. I will make breakfast."
(Wife's boss calls - she went to work two hours early)
