Married Couple Arrives at the Lawyer’s Office to Get Divorced but Gets Stuck in the Elevator — Story of the Day

“What makes you so sure it’s my child?!” John shot back.

“Because I saw your damn photos!” Kate yelled.

“Photos where I’m asleep, and she’s lying next to me?!” John asked, his voice rising.

“Would you have preferred she recorded the entire process?!” Kate snapped.

“There was no process! It was all a setup! And it hurts me that you didn’t trust me enough to hire my ex for a test!” John shouted.

“As if you passed the test!” Kate replied, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

“As if you even tried to verify if it was all true!” John retorted.

“I saw enough. I didn’t need any other factors!” Kate said.

“Of course, you’re perfect! Good thing I managed to forgive you when…” John started but stopped, looking away.

“When what, John? When what?” Kate pressed, her voice softer.

“Nothing. Forget it,” John said, shaking his head.

“If you hadn’t lied to me about where you were spending your evenings, I wouldn’t have set up any tests,” Kate said, her voice tinged with regret.

“Right. Whatever you say,” John replied, leaning back against the elevator wall.

John and Kate had been sitting in the elevator for almost an hour. The light was still out, casting them in darkness. They sat in silence, the tension thick between them.

Finally, John couldn’t take it anymore. “What do you plan to do with our child?” he asked, his voice breaking the heavy silence.
