Clyde quickly hung up the phone, a flicker of impatience in his eyes.

He gave me an awkward smile and pulled out a ring box from his pocket, revealing our wedding rings.

My tone was calm, as if discussing the weather. Once the thought of divorce took root, it seemed to consume me.

Clyde angrily threw the ring onto the back seat. "Melanie, do you really want a divorce that badly?"
