Emma and Ryan had been together ten years, married three. Traumatized from youth, Emma was dependent and tolerated Ryan’s boundary-crossing. Heartbroken, she secretly reunited with Ethan, her high school crush, became pregnant with twins, and decided to end the marriage. She drafted a divorce agreement, giving up assets for Mocha, her dog of fourteen years. Ryan, arrogant, thought she was bluffing, belittled her, and spent time with Chloe. Emma hired a lawyer. At a restaurant, Sophie confronted Ryan and Chloe; Emma struck them. Chloe exposed Emma’s past and shoved her down, causing bleeding and miscarriage risk. Ryan comforted Chloe and left Emma alone. After saving the twins, Emma’s love died. Discharged, she returned for Mocha but was tricked; Chloe, with Ryan’s tacit approval, killed Mocha. Emma buried her ten-year relationship and started anew.
