    “Divorce, huh?” I whimpered. In a moment, the carefully constructed lines on my mom’s face that arduously painted her contained sorrow, melted into tears, while my dad’s despondent eyes watered into an ocean that his boat could never wade through. In I walked into the room of a finished marriage. White, somber, official papers brimmed with adultery and years of regrets---scattered across my parent’s bed and bedroom floor.
