Unhappiness was written all over Gemma's face as she sat in her aunt's warm and cosy living room staring mindlessly at the television.

Ever since last night, when Miguel told her he couldn't love her, Gemma has been sad and that is all she had been thinking about. She couldn't even get any sleep all through the night.

How are you supposed to react when your husband says that he can't love you? She wasn't supposed to be surprised when he told her that, because he was right, their marriage was never based on love.
