“Leave, Demyan! There’s nothing left between us,” I whisper, distant. My heart tightens with pain.
“But why, Eva? You know how I loved you…”
“All in the past. Now I’m married,” I bite my lip.

“You have my children!” he throws in my face, harshly.
“No, Demyan. We’ve been done with each other for a long time. I helped a pregnant woman and accidentally found out she’s expecting a child from my husband. I couldn’t stay with a traitor. I couldn’t tell him the truth. But he didn’t deserve it either.”
