My husband stayed all in the divorce… But I had no idea what I was really taking.

The judge asked if I understood that I was giving up important assets.
And I said in a soft voice:

“Yes, your honor. I just want this to end.”

The signatures began.
Víctor signed quickly. Unread. Hungry for victory.

Until his lawyer arrived at the annex: Declaration of liabilities.

He saw it.
He turned pale.
He turned pages. He checked numbers.
He leaned over to Victor and whispered to him, urgedly:

“You are taking on all the debts.”

There I saw Victor’s face disappear.

House: huge debt.
Business: huge debt.
Vehicles: leases.
Additional Liabilities: More.

He hadn’t made a fortune.
He had won a bill.
