Arman had been married to Sara for seven years. From the outside, their life looked happy, but inside their home, conversations became shorter and smiles slowly disappeared. Work, stress, and daily routine created a distance between them.
At his office, Arman met Lina, a new colleague. She was cheerful and always listened to him carefully. What started as simple conversations during lunch slowly turned into long messages at night. Arman felt understood again, something he thought he had lost.
Soon, their friendship crossed a line. Arman knew it was wrong, yet he could not stop himself. Every time he returned home and saw Sara, guilt filled his heart.
One evening, Sara noticed the change in him. She quietly asked, "Are you hiding something from me?" Her calm voice hurt more than anger. Arman realized that his secret was breaking not only trust but also the life they had built together.
He understood that escaping problems had only created bigger ones. Arman decided to end the affair and face the truth. Rebuilding trust was slow and painful, but honesty became their first step toward healing.
Sometimes love is not lost because of lack of feeling, but because people forget to care for it.
