Tick-tock-tick. The water irritated her—each drop was a reminder of what he hadn’t done. He hadn’t said it. He had missed it. Every drop was the last two years of emptiness: getting together with friends without him. Evenings with the kids—without him. A vacant bed—he was again delayed at work. At some point she supported him. She understood. Then she tried to make sense of it. Then she got angry. And then… indifference arrived.
Nikita dissolved into work and a sense of duty. That was all him; she should have understood earlier. But it would change nothing. Света grew tired of being alone with a living husband. For Nikita, her decision to get a divorce is like a blow to the head—he doesn’t want to lose either her or the children. Sergey got stuck in family routine, while here comes Inna—his former classmate, bright, alive, passionate. The temptation is even for the most faithful person.
Three families on the brink, three complicated paths: from divorce to happiness, from happiness to divorce.
