I never thought I would find myself in this situation. Watching my wife, Astoria, in bed with Theodore Nott was a sight I never wanted to see. The betrayal cut deep, but I couldn't deny the relief that washed over me. Relief that I could finally be free from a marriage that was built on lies and deceit.
I had always loved Pansy, ever since our days at Hogwarts. She was the one who truly understood me, who saw past the facade I put up for the world. But I had married Astoria for the sake of my reputation, for the sake of my family's legacy. I had sacrificed my own happiness for the sake of appearances.
But seeing Astoria with Theodore made me realize that I couldn't continue living a lie. I couldn't continue pretending to be someone I wasn't. So I rekindled my relationship with Pansy, knowing that she was the one I truly loved.
It wasn't easy. Astoria was furious when she found out about me and Pansy. She accused me of betraying her, of breaking our vows. But I couldn't bring myself to care. I had spent too long living a lie, and I wasn't going to go back to that.
And then there was Scorpion, our son. He was more than 11 years old now, and he was caught in the middle of our messy situation. I tried to shield him from the truth, but I knew that he was old enough to understand what was happening.
As the days passed, the tension between Astoria and me grew. We barely spoke to each other, our interactions filled with bitterness and resentment. And then one day, Astoria caught me with Pansy. The look of betrayal in her eyes mirrored the pain I had felt when I had caught her with Theodore.
In the end, Astoria and I decided to go our separate ways. Our marriage was over, and there was no going back. But I knew that I had finally found true happiness with Pansy. Our love was real, and nothing could tear us apart.
As I looked back on everything that had happened, I realized that sometimes, you have to let go of the past in order to find true happiness. And in the end, love always finds a way to prevail.
