The Day I Miscarried, He Was Watching the Northern Lights with His Assistant. So I Took the Money and Disappeared
My husband accompanies her to concerts, shares a straw with her to drink bubble tea, wears childish headbands with her, and even prepares
menstrual pain relief pills for her.
Yet he claims he only sees her as a sister.
I said, “Oh, the kind of sister you sleep with? Then can I go find a brother too?”
Later, my heart died, and I proposed divorce.
He broke down, crying and begging me to look at him one more time.

A video of a couple’s proposal during an interactive segment at a superstar concert went viral, with netizens calling it sweet. The video shot to the top of the trending list.
I clicked on it by chance and spotted familiar figures. Although they were only briefly captured by the camera, I immediately recognized my husband and his young assistant.
Tears streamed down my face in that instant.
A few days ago, while organizing the closet, I found two VIP tickets to the superstar concert in Jason’s pocket.
I was quite happy at the time, being a fan of the singer. I naturally thought Jason wanted to surprise me, so I pretended not to have seen them and put them back.
On the day of the concert, I got dressed up early, did my makeup, and even styled my hair specially.
However, I couldn’t reach Jason. Worried about missing the time, I went directly to wait outside the venue.
But until the show started, he never appeared.
While I was waiting in the rain outside the venue, worrying if something had happened to him, he was sitting in the VIP section inside with his young assistant watching the concert.
After it ended, his call finally came, “What’s wrong, Emily?”
“Where are you? Why couldn’t I reach you on the phone?”
“Sorry, I was in a meeting, my phone was on silent.”
“Jason.”
“Hmm?
“I saw two people in the superstar concert video who looked a lot like you and Assistant Sullivan.”
There was a moment of silence on the other end, then he spoke in a calm tone that betrayed no issues, “You must be seeing things. I’ve been in meetings all day, how could I have time to go to a concert?”
My heart sank inch by inch.
“Jason.”
“Hmm?”
“Nothing, let’s hang up.”
I actually wanted to ask him if he remembered that the singer was my favorite, if he remembered his promise to me.
But when the words reached my lips, I didn’t want to say anything anymore.
I was so tired, I fell into bed and drifted off to sleep

I was so tired, I fell into bed and drifted off to sleep.
Back when we were poorest, Jason secretly worked part–time moving bricks to buy me concert tickets of my idol as a birthday gift. He nearly coughed up blood from exhaustion.
When he presented the tickets to me, I cried seeing the blisters on his hands.
“I don’t want to see the concert, and I don’t like that singer anymore. Jason, I just want you to be okay.”
I couldn’t bear to let Jason’s hard–earned money go to waste, so I resold the tickets.
He hugged me and swore, “When we have money in the future, I’ll definitely take you to see VIP shows, as many as you want. When we’re even richer, we’ll book private shows. And when we’re super rich, we’ll invite him to sing at our home.”
Leaning in his arms, listening to his words, imagining our beautiful future, I felt extremely happy.
But after we really became wealthy, we seemed to have forgotten our initial promise and never went even once.
Today, he took his assistant to see it.
I felt so sad. We used to be so in love, I didn’t understand where things went wrong.
The tears at the corner of my eyes were gently wiped away, and Jason’s soft sigh sounded by my ear, “Having a nightmare again?”
