"Bethany Broke Down in Tears When Larry Asked Her to Sign the Divorce Papers 😭💔
Setting:
A quiet evening. They're in the living room of what was once their shared home. Larry has just laid the divorce papers on the table.
Bethany:
(staring at the papers, voice cracking)
So… this is it?
Larry:
(quietly)
I think it’s time, Beth. We’ve both known this was coming.
Bethany:
(shakes her head, eyes welling up)
I didn’t know it would hurt this much. I thought I was ready… but this… feels like dying.
Larry:
(sits across from her, avoiding eye contact)
I didn’t come here to hurt you. You know that.
Bethany:
Then why does it feel like you are? After everything? After twenty years, you just lay the papers down like it’s some bill that needs to be paid?
Larry:
(sighs)
Bethany… we haven’t been us in a long time. You know it too. The fighting, the silence, sleeping in separate rooms… that’s not a marriage anymore.
Bethany:
(tearfully)
But people work through things, Larry! They fight, they go to therapy, they try. You just… gave up.
Larry:
No. I gave everything I had, Beth. You did too. But somewhere along the way, we stopped loving each other the way we used to. I think we just started surviving each other.
Bethany:
(voice rising)
You don’t survive someone you love. You fight for them! You don’t throw twenty years away like it was nothing!
Larry:
(gently, with sadness)
I'm not saying it was nothing. You were my whole world once. We raised kids together, we built a life. But staying together now—out of fear, out of guilt—that’s not love either.
Bethany:
(sniffles, sits down slowly)
So that’s it? You’ve decided. You’ve moved on. Probably found someone new, haven’t you?
Larry:
(hurt, firm)
No. This isn’t about someone else. Don’t do that. This is about us. About how we’ve grown apart and pretended it wasn’t happening. We’re better people than that.
Bethany:
(quietly)
I still wear my ring, you know?
Larry:
(looks away)
I noticed.
Bethany:
Every day I woke up thinking maybe today you’d change your mind. Maybe we’d laugh again. Maybe we’d remember how we used to just… hold each other, for no reason.
Larry:
(his voice breaking slightly)
I remember. I remember everything. Your laugh at the lake house. The way you danced barefoot in the kitchen. The night we found out we were pregnant. I carry all of it.
Bethany:
Then why are you letting it go?
Larry:
Because… I think letting go is the most honest thing we’ve done in years. I don’t want us to keep hurting each other just because we’re afraid to start over.
Bethany:
(softly)
I don’t want to be alone.
Larry:
You’re not alone. And you won’t be. You’re stronger than you think, Beth. And deep down, you know this isn’t where your story ends.
Bethany:
(tear rolls down her cheek)
But I thought we were the story.
Larry:
We were. A beautiful one. And just because it’s over doesn’t mean it wasn’t worth telling.
(He gently pushes the papers toward her.)
Larry:
Take your time. You don’t have to sign them tonight. I just… wanted to be honest. With you. With myself.
(Bethany nods slowly, picking up the pen, then sets it down again, unsure.)
Bethany:
Can I ask you something?
Larry:
Of course.
Bethany:
Did you ever stop loving me?
Larry:
(long pause)
No. I just stopped knowing how to love you in the way you needed. And I think you stopped knowing how to love me too.
(Bethany looks away, wiping her tears. Silence fills the room.)
