Mark felt the blood drain from his face. His wife, Emily, had a savings account he knew nothing about. He'd been looking for a receipt, and it's presence had been completely unexpected. A buzzing sensation filled his head.

He sat back in the chair, the bank statement clutched in his hand. The numbers swam before his eyes. He’d always believed their finances were open, transparent. He got up and began to pace his study.

He glanced at the framed photos on the wall, pictures of their life together. A cold dread settled over him. He felt as though he was on a tightrope, and the wind had suddenly picked up. He thought of her laugh, her touch, all the shared moments. Did he even know her?
