Story
The story
Five years after their divorce, Chloe Vance runs into Silas Thorne in a tattoo parlor. He has come to touch up the name inked over his heart; she has come to cover the scars on her wrist. A small boy calls him Daddy, and Silas's phone shows a call from "Wife." Chloe tells the child they are strangers.
Silas wears a wedding band now, though he never wore one during their two years of marriage. The shop owner, who knows them both, mentions that Silas's wife, the starlet Maya Sterling, looks strikingly like Chloe. Silas asks whether she means to keep pretending they are strangers, and Chloe answers that pretending is the respect she can offer him.
As the needle touches her scar, Chloe finally tells the owner who she is: Silas's ex-wife.

I was there to mask old scars on my wrist.
Years had passed, and for a long moment, we just stared at each other in silence.
Silas was finally about to speak when a pair of small hands grabbed the hem of his shirt.
These are the opening lines of chapter 1. Keep reading →
