[She leaned against the wall and got a somewhat uncomfortable look. He hadn't actually been terrible to her, right up until he'd tossed her aside in favor of someone else. She'd been in love, legitimately so. She still remembered that about him. He'd been a good match. Good for the family, good for her, right up until it stopped being so.]
He left me for another woman and married her. When he did that, let's just say... I'm still jealous of the whole women's lib movement. You guys have a much easier time just living on you own. My options were to go back to my family in disgrace, to watch our lot fall and to know I'd somehow failed them in the court.
His selfish little libido'd ruined us. I ... might have forgiven him visiting an oiran if he'd really needed that. He just threw me away like trash.
