    [Female Awakening, Scumbag's Retribution, Sweet and Healing] Married for seven years, he cheated on me three times. I tolerated the first time, I accepted the second, but the third time he brought someone else to our bed. On the day of the divorce, he didn't even try to stop me; he left more decisively than signing a lease. But eight months later, his mother suddenly passed away. He knelt before me, drunk, crying and begging me to remarry him. Looking at his swollen eyes, I remembered what each of my forgivenesses over the past ten years had brought me. Then I made a decision that everyone said was "too cruel": I made him kneel, and turned to walk towards another person.
