Antti walked around his fancy living room, worrying about the unavoidable divorce. He knew he couldn't hide his feelings any longer. With a sigh, he picked up his phone and called Liisa.

"Liisa, we need to talk," Antti said, his voice shaking.

Liisa, sitting on the edge of the bed in their shared bedroom, became tense when she answered the call. "Antti, what's wrong? You sound upset."

"I think it's time we faced the truth, Liisa. Our marriage isn't working. I'm not happy with our life together, and I can't pretend anymore. I think it's best if we split up."

Liisa tried not to cry, tears forming in her eyes. "Can't we do anything to save our marriage, Antti? For the sake of our children?"

Antti sighed deeply. "I've thought about it a lot, Liisa. But my heart isn't in this anymore. It's not fair to us or the children to keep living like this."

Liisa's voice broke as she replied, "So, that's it then? You want a divorce?"

"Yes, Liisa, I think it's for the best. I'll make sure you and the children are looked after financially. But I need to find my own happiness, and I can't do that in this marriage."

Liisa started crying, unable to speak. Antti felt guilty but knew he couldn't change his mind. Their marriage was beyond saving.

A few weeks later, after the paperwork was done, Liisa moved with the children to a flat in Espoo. The reality of her new life as a single mum started to sink in as she found it hard to adapt to the smaller space and money issues.

Antti, however, enjoyed his new freedom. He didn't waste time in meeting younger women, giving them presents and attention. He felt excited, blinded by the fun of his new life and short-term relationships.

As Liisa stood by the window of her small flat, watching her children play on the tiny playground below, she felt regret. Her glamorous life had fallen apart, and she had to deal with the results of her past choices.

At the same time, Antti had a young woman in his posh home, not knowing about the sadness his former wife felt. His search for fun continued, causing pain along the way. The life Antti and Liisa once had together was now just a distant memory, lost among the broken pieces of their marriage.
