Woman 1 - Leaving people behind
I have cancer his wife screamed as he left for work that morning. The slam of the door was like her whole world had collapsed did her husband really love her? Or could it be he had found success and she was no longer his high school love and they were no longer the perfect family.


Woman 2 - Should be a Happy Moment
I'm pregnant she said quietly one cold winter's morning to her young handsome husband lying next to her. He grabbed her instantly and whispered to her stomach "It's your Daddy here" she however was none the less overjoyed as the man whispering to her stomach was not the Father of her child.


Woman 2 - Something to Say?
"We need to talk" she said with a lump in her throat to her dark haired "Boss" he pulled her, to one side and said "what do you want" in an almost abrupt voice. Just at that moment her phone rang it was her clueless husband she pressed the call end button. He whispered to her "i have to go" and tried to cover their secret meeting with words of that of buisness and finance. She placed a note, in his pocket while he quickly rushed from her side.

"Know what her husband whispered" as if not to ruin their tender moment "Nothing" she said in a shaky voice and she went to their room he followed quickly and so she was facing him he pulled her close to his chest and began to softly hum their favourite song to her. Her eyes, instantly filled up with tears and the flutter in her stomach grew more and more intense.


Man 1 - Has he changed?
He arrived home late smelling of alcohol and lipstick on his collar. She knew where he had been but dared to
ask him for she knew she would be a victim of his terrible outbursts. She simply moved away from the sofa she had been on for the past several hours as she could not stand to be near him. However this evening it was different he came closer and closer and pulled her into his chest. Why was he hugging her? he questioned they had never embraced in eachothers arms for a very long time.

He picked the tiny baby up and placed it close to his chest and whispered "your mummy and daddy love you very much". She lay there as her husband sat on the edge of the bed with their "newborn" as she felt him sit on the bed she got up and walked out with him helplessly staring at the door as it closed.

A text message came through on her phone he picked it up and read what it said "Ok i want to see my baby but not now in a weeks time when i come back from Barbados". He paused and looked at the tiny baby in the cot next to him he grabbed all the bin bags he could find and item by item he placed her things into them and put them by the door. He held the tiny baby close to his chest and whispered "your not going anywhere but mummy is" he cleared his throat as she came out of the bedroom she paused looked at him, her phone and than to the bin bags at the door. He opened the door and took her by the hand he carefully took her left hand and took of the ring he had so effortlessly placed on her on their wedding day. Than guiding her down the stairs and out the door he chucked the bin bags one after another landing beside her on the pavement. He than tenderly kissed her forehead and said "we could of been so good together" and went back inside with the baby warmly tucked into his chest as she remained behind crying endlessly on the street corner.
