I was sh0cked to see the maid rush to the bathroom to vomit right

I was sh0cked to see the maid, right when she was preparing dinner, running to the bathroom to vomit… my husband and brother-in-law would get nervous every time this happened. One night, I sneaked down to the kitchen and discovered the truth…
For weeks, I’d noticed something strange.

Every time it was time for dinner, the maid would run to the bathroom to vomit.

My suspicions grew inside me, but I didn’t dare say anything.

The strangest thing was that, each time, my husband and my brother-in-law would get nervous, hurrying back and forth, as if they were trying to hide something.

At first, I naively thought, “Could she be pregnant? But… how could that be possible?”

That night, unable to sleep, I quietly went down to the kitchen. A dim light was already filtering in from a distance. I held my breath and approached slowly.

The scene before my eyes left me frozen: the maid was crouching, her hands trembling, holding a bowl of medicine, muttering something, with a look of terror on her face.

But what truly chilled my blood was seeing who was standing beside her, leaning over to hold her by the shoulders… my own husband!

His eyes were filled with concern, and he whispered to her:

“Hang on for a few more months… everything will pass. Don’t let anyone find out…”

I covered my mouth to keep from screaming, my heart pounding in my chest.

A thousand questions crowded my mind:

Was I really pregnant? Whose child was this? And why did my brother-in-law seem so involved?

I returned to my room, my heart shattered.

I didn’t sleep all night.

The next day, I pretended to be calm and did the usual chores, but deep down, I decided: I had to clear everything up.

I secretly took the bowl of medicine to a nearby pharmacy. The result took my breath away: it was medication to protect a pregnancy.

There was no longer any doubt. The maid was pregnant. And the child’s father… there was no need to ask.

That night, at family dinner, I placed the medicine wrapper and the pharmacy report on the table.

I looked directly at my husband and brother-in-law. Both paled, speechless with terror.

I smiled coldly:

“Very well. One calls himself husband, the other brother-in-law. Did you think I was that naive? I saw it all last night.”

My husband trembled, tried to kneel, stammering:

“I… I was wrong. Give me a chance…”

My brother-in-law lowered his head, unable to utter a word.

I looked him in the eyes and said, emphasizing each word:

“Chance? Did you think of giving me one when you humiliated me like that? That child is yours, you know it well.” But from today, I release you and her. I’m not going to stay with a traitor.

Then I placed the already signed divorce petition on the table.

The maid burst into tears, my husband buried his head, and my brother-in-law covered his face. The three of them lowered their gaze, unable to face me.

I stood up, head held high, carrying with me whatever dignity I still had, and left the house I had once called home.

Outside, the cold wind caressed my face, but inside, I felt an unexpected peace.

I realized that the greatest loss wasn’t losing a husband, but losing the illusion of a false love.

Best gifts for your loved ones
And I thought: Better alone and proud than living with a traitor.

HE TOOK HER OUT TO LUNCH—EVEN THOUGH SHE WASN’T THEREThe diner was busy, full of chatter and clinking silverware, but he sat quietly at his table for two. One tray. Two plates. One for him, and one carefully placed in front of a framed photograph. The woman in the picture smiled brightly, frozen in time. He adjusted the frame, making sure she had the perfect view of their meal. Then, with steady hands, he picked up a piece of fried chicken and placed it on her plate first. A waitress stopped, her voice soft. “Would you like anything else, sir?” He shook his head, smiling gently. “No, ma’am. This was her favorite.” Then, as he picked up his fork, he whispered something to the photo—something so full of love and longing that my heart ached. And in that moment, I realized… this wasn’t just lunch. It was a ritual. A testament to a love that time couldn’t erase. I watched him, fascinated and moved, as he ate his meal, occasionally pausing to tell the photograph something. He spoke of the weather, a funny story he’d heard, and how much he missed her laugh. I’m a writer, you see, and I’m always searching for stories. But this… this wasn’t a story I was going to write. It was a moment I was going to learn from. After he finished, he carefully wrapped the uneaten food on her plate, placed the photograph back in his bag, and paid the bill. As he walked past my table, I couldn’t help myself. “Excuse me, sir,” I said, my voice barely a whisper. “I couldn’t help but notice… you bring her to lunch.” He stopped, his eyes—a gentle, faded blue—meeting mine. “Yes, ma’am. Her name was Elara.” “Was?” I asked, feeling a pang of sorrow. “She passed away,” he said, his voice steady but soft. “A few years ago now. But she loved this diner, loved their fried chicken. And she always said, ‘When I’m gone, don’t forget to have lunch for two.’ So, I don’t.” I nodded, tears welling up in my eyes. “That’s… that’s beautiful.” “It’s just love,” he said simply. “And memory. They’re all we really have, aren’t they?” He smiled again, a small, sad smile, and walked out of the diner. I sat there for a long time, thinking about Elara, about her husband, about the power of a simple meal shared between two people, even when one wasn’t physically there. The next week, I found myself back at the diner. I couldn’t shake the image of the man and his photograph. I ordered the fried chicken, just to see what Elara had loved so much. It was indeed delicious. As I ate, I noticed a young woman sitting alone at a table near the window. She looked sad, her eyes red, her hands clasped tightly in her lap. I felt a familiar tug of empathy. After finishing my meal, I walked over to her table. “Excuse me,” I said gently. “I couldn’t help but notice you looked a little down.” She looked up, startled, and wiped her eyes. “It’s nothing,” she said, her voice trembling. “Just… missing someone.” “I understand,” I said, and I told her about the man and his photograph, about Elara and the fried chicken. Her eyes widened. “That’s… that’s incredible. I lost my grandmother recently,” she said. “And she loved this place too. We used to come here every Sunday.” “Maybe,” I suggested, “you could come back sometimes. For her. Have lunch for two.” She smiled, a genuine smile that reached her eyes. “That’s… that’s a wonderful idea. Thank you.” Over the next few months, I saw the man with the photograph several times. Each time, he was the same—calm, gentle, full of love. He became a fixture in the diner, a quiet reminder of enduring love. One day, I arrived to find him sitting at his usual table, but there was something different. He wasn’t looking at the photograph. He was looking out the window, a soft smile on his face. I approached him cautiously. “Everything alright?” I asked. He turned to me, his eyes sparkling. “Yes, ma’am. Everything is wonderful. You see,” he said, gesturing towards the window. “I had a dream last night. Elara told me it was time. Time for me to live again, to find joy. She told me she’d always be with me, in my heart, but it was time for me to make new memories.” My heart skipped a beat. “That’s… that’s amazing,” I said. “It is,” he said. “And you know what else?” He reached into his bag and pulled out a small, worn notebook. “I’ve been writing. Writing down all the stories Elara told me, all the memories we shared. I think I’m going to write a book.” A book. A book about love, about loss, about the enduring power of memory. It was perfect. A few months later, I received a package in the mail. Inside was a copy of his book, titled “Lunch for Two.” It was a beautiful story, filled with love, laughter, and tears. It was Elara’s story, and his story, and a story about how love never truly dies. The book became a local sensation. People were drawn to its honesty, its simplicity, its message of hope. The man, whose name was Arthur, became a local hero, a symbol of enduring love. One evening, I saw Arthur at a local bookstore, giving a reading. He was surrounded by people, all eager to hear his story. As he read, his voice filled with emotion, I realized that Elara’s legacy wasn’t just in the framed photo, or the lunch for two, but in the stories he was sharing. The twist was this: Arthur found a new love. Not a replacement, but a continuation. A woman who loved his stories, who understood his grief, and who saw the beauty in his enduring love for Elara. He didn’t forget Elara, but he learned to live again, carrying her love with him. The life lesson here is that love doesn’t end with loss. It transforms, it evolves, it finds new ways to bloom. Memories are precious, and they should be cherished, but they shouldn’t hold us back from living. Love, in all its forms, is a gift, and we should embrace it, even when it comes in unexpected ways. Don’t let grief or loss hold you back from living. Share your st
