Seeking Reassurance
I went to my lawyer, Tom, who always had our back, to clear up the issue. I finally felt the weight lessen as I sat across from him. I need to know whether we’re going to be alright, Tom. With a trembling voice, I asked. Calm as ever, he leaned back and said, “Carmen, you and the kids come first.” “We’ve got the prenup as our safety net.” I wanted the confidence that he was there to help me.

Tom gave me specific instructions: “Organize all your documents,” he said, compelling me to take action. We talked about the divorce process, and his instructions began to ingrain themselves into my mind like a to-do list. “Carmen, stay one step ahead.” He cautioned that impulsive decisions might result from this disarray. I nodded, feeling a surge of renewed resolve. It seems that my anchor would be organization. I felt like I was gradually regaining power in a society that yearned for order under Tom’s direction.
