After My Death, His Love Turned Obsessive

My husband's childhood sweetheart was grappling with kidney failure and was hell-bent on making a pilgrimage to a secluded chapel in the highlands to seek divine intervention.

Late at night, he bailed on me, barely hanging on to life, just to snag some pain relievers for her menstrual cramps.

My stepbrother cautioned him, "Man, if you don't rush her to the hospital, she's gonna freeze to death out here."

But my husband just dismissed me with a flick of his hand, clearly annoyed.

"Why pit women against each other? Haven't you noticed how pale she is from the pain?"
