welcome to Lost relation Chronicles Cathy's lawyer stood up his voice measured and practiced your honor my client wishes to request a counseling session in an effort to repair the marriage she believes that with the right support this relationship can be mended my lawyer stood immediately his voice confident and unwavering your honor Mr Porter has made it clear that he does not wish to reconcile the facts of this case speak for themselves Mrs Porter has engaged in multiple extramarital Affairs and is current ly pregnant with a child fathered by one of these individuals my client's intention

is to move forward with the divorce there was a murmur in the courtroom Whispers that seemed to Echo my own disbelief at how this had unfolded I clenched my hands together keeping my expression neutral I needed to stay strong Cathy's lawyer pushed on though there was a hint of desperation in his tone now while my client acknowledges past mistakes she believes that a counseling session could bring closure and understanding to both parties possibly healing some of the dam damage I felt a surge of frustration I leaned forward slightly my voice steady but firm your honor

I appreciate the Court's time but I have no interest in counseling too much has happened and this marriage is beyond saving I just want the divorce Cathy's lawyer glanced at his notes before addressing the judge again your honor beyond the marriage itself there is also the welfare of The Unborn Child to consider my client believes that counseling is essential for ensuring that all parties especially the child have a chance at stability and support my lawyer shifted slightly but stayed silent waiting for my que I couldn't keep my frustration contained any longer I stood the words

tumbling out before I could stop them I have no interest in raising that devil spawn that isn't mine that cheating 304 can find her father and let him raise it I don't want to attend any counseling with that woman Mr Porter one more word and I will hold you in contempt of court he yelled at me a quiet gasp moved through the room room and I caught a glimpse of Cathy's face pale and tight lipped the judge's eyes narrowed as he looked at me over the rim of his glasses a long pause filling the space

as if he were weighing every word Mr Porter the judge said his voice firm while I understand your feelings this court must consider all factors including the emotional welfare of everyone involved I am ordering both parties to attend counseling sessions as a final attempt to address these issues constructively I will not attend I scowled I am ordering one month of counseling two sessions per week you will attend Mr Porter or else he glowered at me for a moment then banged his gavl again that is all a week later the room was silent tense with an

air that seemed to buzz with unspoken words the counselor a middle-aged man with a calm demeanor and glasses perched on the edge of his nose sat across from us hands resting lightly on a notepad Cathy sat next to me looking down twisting the fabric of her sweater nervously Ben Cathy started her voice shaky I just want to say don't I snapped my voice cold and sharp keep your mouth shut I don't want to hear anything from you the counselor Mr Hensley glanced between us his expression neutral but attentive Ben I know this is tough but

we're here to try to open a dialogue even if it's uncomfortable speaking up can help us move forward will you give it a try I crossed my arms my jaw tightening I'm here because the judge ordered it not because I want to talk I'll attend but I don't have to participate a brief silence followed Mr Hensley's eyes searching mind for any sign of willingness when none came he sighed shifting his notepad slightly I understand this is painful but communication is a step toward understanding even if it doesn't lead to reconciliation after an hour okay Doctor

good session see you Thursday I'm canceling the sessions and sending my report to the judge even better I left the office the judge was not pleased give me one reason why I should not hold your client in contempt he growled at my lawyer your honor you ordered my client to attend the sessions he attended the first session in accordance with the order it was the counselor who called off the rest of the session the counselor's report clearly states that he made no attempt to engage in the session he put in headphones and ignored them for

the entire time the judge responded the order was that he attend my lawyer returned he attended given that the counselor felt that there was no benefit in continuing I would like to request that you grant the divorce according to the petition not on your life the judge said I am ordering four weeks of counseling Mr Porter will attend and he will participate the office was set up in exactly the same format as before when I arrived two chairs about a foot apart faced the doctor's desk he sat behind it the desk was Bare barring a

yellow legal pad and a picture of a pretty woman I would guess in her mid-30s and a child that looked about 6 years old Mr Porter the doctor said please take a seat once again I started to move the chair Cathy put her hand out to stop me and I jumped back if you dare to touch me I would consider it an assault and would punch your teeth in your stomach you understand Cathy gasped pulling back I went back to moving the chair and then sat in it once again I got out my phone Mr

Porter the judge ordered that you participate in the session I know I said my voice steady I'm using my phone to record the session to prove my participation my lawyer mentioned that some counselors might have their own agendas since my soon to be ex-wife has already been seeing you for some time I feel you may have developed a relationship with her that could work against me the counselor Mr Hensley tilted his head slightly and what if I do not wish you to record the sessions he asked his tone calm but direct then I'll go back

to court and request a different counselor I replied firmly I have that option the only reason I didn't do that already was to avoid more delays I just want to quickly get rid of this 304 Mr Hensley turned his attention to Cathy who was sitting with her arms crossed eyes averted Cathy how do you feel about the sessions being recorded she Shrugged barely looking up whatever she said with a hint of impatience waving her hand dismissively can we just start the air in the room seemed to settle a reluctant agreement hanging between us all okay

then Mr Hensley said folding his hands in front of him what I would like to do to start before we start I interrupted my tone cold can I ask a question of course he said his voice measured you can ask questions at any time I may ask you to hold off during certain points but right now go ahead he offered a small smile that I didn't return have you slept with her yet I asked bluntly Cathy gasped a sharp intake of breath that cut through the room but Mr Hensley's expression didn't change no Ben he

said evenly Cathy and I have not had nor will we have any kind of sexual contact it would be highly inappropriate even if I were not already very happily married does that answer your question I looked at him for a long moment before nodding I believed him despite the fact that Cathy seemed to have been involved with nearly every man she'd encountered in the past year all right then Mr Hensley continued smoothly as I was saying to begin I'd like to set our expectations since I have already spoken to Kathy on a few occasions I

would like her to outline what she hopes to achieve in these sessions and what her desired outcome would be Ben I'd ask that while she's talking you refrain from comments or questions until the end once Cathy has shared her goals I'll ask you to do the same my goal is to see her get an incurable STD and watch her die a slow and painful death to go to her grave and piss on it that is the ultimate dream that I have Mr Hensley shook his head and looked towards Cathy who was already shaken by my

response talk to me Cathy Mr Hensley said his tone gentle tell me what you would like Ben to hear Cathy took a shaky breath her voice wavering as she began I want him to hear how sorry I am for hurting him I know what I did was wrong but it was just that he spent so much time at work and on his business trips and I was lonely I realized how much pain I caused him and if I could go back and change the past I would do anything to make it right I love him

more than anything else in the world I know we can get past this if he'd just give me a chance I would show him that I can be the best wife of man could ever want we could raise this child together give him a Wonderful Life maybe even a sibling I want us to be a family again I know we can make it through this Mr Hensley offered a small nod and a faint supportive smile thank you Kathy now Ben what would you like to say she can write down her feelings on a piece of

paper then roll it in and stick it up her butt far enough to choke on it he feelings mean crap to me and she is already dead to me Cathy started to cry and ran out of the room please collide with something and die I said as she ran out that was not helpful Mr Hensley remarked his voice steady but edged with concern I don't want to be helpful I spat back that lying cheating woman slept with half the city for a year got herself pregnant and then tried to pass the baby off his mine

if I hadn't already been suspicious and demanded a DNA test I'd be stuck right now paying for someone else's kit tell me doctor how exactly should I be acting it's natural to be angry Ben Mr Hensley replied evenly but you need to look past the anger to remember what you shared I glared at him my rage simmering do you even know what the hell you're talking about I snapped have you ever had the love of your life the person you trusted with every piece of yourself who you die to protect betray you so completely that

you question your own sanity how can someone who says they love you hurt you so deeply that it pushes you to the brink of wanting to end it all and did you notice she hasn't even once truly apologized for what she did not for screwing all those in not for the Endless Lies not for getting herself pregnant and not even knowing who the father is the only thing certain is that it wasn't the person who should have been giving her a child me so don't sit there with your sanctimonious but and your book knowledge telling

me I need to move past my anger right now my anger is the only thing keeping me going just let me get this cheating 304 out of my life so I can try to rebuild from the wreckage she left behind I stood up eyes locked on Mr Hensley does that that count as participation I snarled as I turned and walked out I asked Cathy to allow us to have this session without her Mr Hensley said as I walked into his office the following week I think we may be able to achieve more on a one-on-one

basis to start as long as this still counts towards the court ordered counseling I'm more than happy to be in the same room as that I replied plopping down in a chair and setting an A4 envelope on my lap can we try to refrain from name calling please it's not constructive and only gets in the way he said his tone calm I'm not here to be constructive I just want to get through these sessions and finally get that Unfaithful person out of my life for good I never wanted to be here she's just hellbent on

causing me as much pain as possible she doesn't want the divorce because the prenup leaves her with nothing so she's trying to force me into taking her back it's not happening and what about the child Mr Hensley pressed he's innocent surely he shouldn't be punished for I don't give a about that kid but your logic I should take in every stray that couldn't keep her legs closed and ended up pregnant those kids have nothing to do with me and neither does this one why are you so set on believing there's only one outcome here he

asked his voice steady you clearly loved her deeply that kind of feeling doesn't just vanish overnight your anger is masking it right now but once it settles and trust me it will you'll find there are still feelings you can build on feelings that could help restore your relationship maybe even make it stronger that stupid smile was back again and I felt the urge to punch him time to give him a taste of his own medicine I gestured toward the picture on his desk you have a nice family I said been married long we're not here

to discuss my personal life 11 years if my sources are correct childhood sweetheart married right out of college waited to have kids and then little Ethan came along what is he and I now that picture must have been taken a couple of years ago how did you he started to ask but did you know your darling Cheryl has her own Secrets I continued did you know that when she says she's at Pilates class on Wednesdays while you're working shek actually at the motel a on Patterson screwing her personal trainer that is completely ridiculous he stammered

but I could see he was shaken he had gone very pale really I said pulling several photographs from the envelope and slapping them down on his desk one by one they showed a pretty Slender Woman entering a hotel room with a young musclebound man his arm WRA wed around her waist as they gazed lovingly at each other I then pulled out a DVD and slapped it down too there's footage from inside the room if you want actual proof of what they were getting up to it's pretty graphic so I wouldn't watch it if I were

you I made that mistake when I got my Pi report those images will haunt me for the rest of my life he looked like he might be sick oh and one more thing I added pulling out a DNA report from the envelope no he said quietly please God no it appears that the fitness instructor isn't the first I guess he would be too young to have fathered Ethan but whoever the father is it isn't you I said quietly he stood up and bolted for what I assumed was a bathroom off his office I could hear

him wretching violently now do you understand I asked when he finally sank back into his chair tears streaming down his face he looked at me with dead eyes do you see the pain she caused me and why I need to get her out of my life I pressed he nodded looking utterly defeated good I said said smirking a little now there's just one more thing you need to know his face drained of color as he looked at me with Dread there's more he asked sounding pitiful it's all fake I shot back none of what I

just showed you is true as far as I know your wife is as loving and faithful as you thought she was and Ethan is your son but the photos he stammered Photoshop I replied grimly amazing what you can do with some Facebook posts and a little time and effort if you had them examined by anyone with half a brain they tell you they're all fakes I pulled out the originals I'd created them from the DVD he asked his voice trembling blank I replied flatly and the DNA report is actually the DNA report for that cheating

304s baby I just changed the names and dates I said watching his expression shift from confusion to disbelief he sat there stunned fresh tears beginning to stream down his face why would you do that what did you think you could possibly achieve by wrecking my marriage in my life he asked his voice cracking that was not my intention I shot back that's why I told you right away it was all fake I never wanted you or your family to suffer permanent harm I just wanted you for once to truly understand the pain I went through

the feelings of loss anger and hurt you had a taste of it for a few minutes I'm still living with it your brief misery is my daily reality now forcing me to sit here with that listening to spout her about how she loves me and wants me back just means I have to relive the pain over and over again there are laws against cruel and unusual punishment why don't they apply here I just want to move on pick up the pieces of my life and get on with it why can't you and the courts let

me do that I started Gathering the documents from the table and shoved them back into the envelope I'll leave this with you to dispose of I said my tone softening just a fraction I am actually sorry to have had to do this but I needed you to understand and your honor I have the report from the court mandated counseling that my client was instructed to attend my lawyer said addressing the judge with a mixture of formality and urgency I have a copy the judge growled his eyes narrowing as he flipped through the pages it appears

that the counselor believes even after only three sessions out of the mandated eight that this marriage is beyond saving for the well-being of all involved including the child the best course would be to allow its dissolution yes your honor I would request that you order the divorce be completed as poor the petition my lawyer pressed the judge stared at me for a long moment I kept my gaze fixed Straight Ahead refusing to meet his eyes not wanting to reveal the turmoil inside so ordered he said finally banging his gavel with a finality that echoed in

the courtroom the judge glanced at the financial records before him and delivered his ruling with a tone that made it clear this was not a matter to be taken lightly there will be no alimony he stated looking up at us Miss Cathy earns more than Mr Porter and both parties will retain their pre-marriage assets the remainder will be divided 50/50 no alimony meant that I wouldn't be financially Tethered to Kathy any longer Kathy had lost her job a fact that didn't surprise me in the least one of her lovers had turned out to be a

client and I could only imagine the mess that would have ensued from that I couldn't help but smirk internally at the irony of her situation then as if it couldn't get any more ridiculous I heard that she had filed a suit against seven men requesting the court to mandate DNA tests I couldn't believe it here she was dragging multiple men into the fry all in an effort to sort out who the father of her child might be the aftermath of the paternity test had set off a chain reaction that I couldn't have predicted news spread

like wildfire all seven wives of the men Cathy had been sleeping with filed for divorce against their husbands I couldn't help but feel a grim satisfaction at the chaos she'd Unleashed on everyone involved it was like a karmic whirl wind and I was just a bystander watching The Fallout last I heard one of those angry wives had stormed into the courthouse and attacked Cathy the image of her breaking Cathy's nose was almost poetic in a way after everything Cathy had done seeing her face bloodied and bruised felt like some kind of cosmic Justice I had

to admit I almost laughed when I heard about it it was hard to feel any sympathy for her at that point she had turned my life upside down and now she was reaping what she had sown Cathy had given birth to her child but that didn't change how I felt about her or the situation the cases against those seven men were still lingering in the courts and I wondered how long it would take for all that to finally be resolved honestly I was just glad to be out of the mess Cathy showed up at my

house unannounced one afternoon her face set with a mixture of desperation and entitlement I could tell from the moment she walked through the door that she was on a mission to convince me to marry her again she started spouting all this nonsense about how she had changed how she realized what a mistake she had made and how much she loved me it was almost laughable considering everything that had happened I stood my ground refusing to let her manipulate me again Cathy it's over we're done you made your choices and now you have to live with

them I told her firmly trying to keep my cool but she wouldn't let it go she was relentless her voice Rising with every word trying to make me feel guilty for not considering a Reconciliation just then Nancy my girlfriend came out out from the kitchen she must have sensed the tension in the room because she didn't hesitate to confront Kathy you need to leave you're not welcome here she said her tone sharp and unyielding Cathy's response was explosive she launched into an abusive tirade spewing venomous insults and trying to demean Nancy clearly believing she still

had the power to intimidate I could see nany's eyes narrow as Cathy continued her verbal assault I felt a surge of protectiveness for Nancy but I knew Cathy was unhinged and I didn't want escalate the situation then it happened in a moment of rage Cathy lunged at Nancy trying to hit her that was a huge mistake Nancy who was no stranger to standing her ground expertly sidestepped Cathy's wild swing and retaliated with a brutal Counterattack she kicked her and threw her on the floor I stood there half in shock and half in admiration as Nancy

quickly gained the upper hand she was fierce and Kathy who had always relied on her manipulative tactics was clearly out matched before I knew it Nancy had Cathy pinned against the floor her anger palpable it was surreal watching Cathy the woman who had once held so much control over my life reduced to this I could hardly believe what I was witnessing get the hell out of our Lives Cathy you're not welcome here Nancy shouted in the midst of the chaos I pulled out my phone and called the cops Cathy was screaming by this point but

her words fell on deaf ears the cops arrived shortly after and Nancy calmly explained everything they stepped in quickly assessing the situation Cathy still defiant tried to put on a show claiming she was the victim but it didn't take long for the officers to see through her act as they handcuffed her and led her away I felt an odd mix of emotions relief satisfaction and a sense of finality it was the end of an era for me the last remnants of her toxicity being dragged out of my life I turned to Nancy who was still

shaking with adrenaline you were incredible I said feeling grateful to have her by my side just doing what had to be done she replied with a hint of a smile in that moment I knew I had made the right choice I was ready to leave the past behind and embrace a future with someone who truly valued me someone who wouldn't try to tear me down dear listeners please share your thoughts in the comments section below and don't forget to like share and subscribe
