“Megan, don’t do this.”

“I recorded everything.”

The elderly woman across the aisle began clapping.

A few others joined her.

Karl looked around in disbelief, humiliated and furious.

“How could you?” he hissed. “After everything I did for you?”

I stared at him — the man I had loved, the man I married, the man whose death had nearly destroyed me.

“You did it for yourself,” I said. “You just expected me to carry the lie with you.”

The bus doors opened.

I stepped down onto the sidewalk.

Behind me, Karl called my name again.

“Don’t destroy our chance to be happy!”

I didn’t turn around.

Across the street, the police station stood in the pale morning light.
