Career Dissatisfaction
Cheryl left job after her first child was born. In the process of taking care of three children, she couldn’t get even a single moment for her career.
It all started when Ethan changed his job. Unfortunately, he wasn’t satisfied with the work in the new company as well. And the stress of his professional life started to create stress in his personal life as well.
Disappointed Man
Ethan started to take offs more than often and cared less about getting paid. So far, he knew what he was doing was irresponsible and when Cheryl tried to give him a pep talk, he eventually started to look for a better-earning option for himself. During this searching process, Ethan tried to get help from several people. Not good ones we must say.
A Means Of Escape
Most of them couldn’t be of any help which was still fine compared to those people who were about to tempt Ethan towards an evil means of escape. These people offered Ethan a way to get rid of his worries, even if it was for a short while. This way was in the form of a “thing”. Ideally, it was not a real escape but a subconscious one. Once he used this “thing”, the desire to have more only increased.
Reaching The Limit
Ethan started the intake of this substance on a daily basis and now it was bothering Cheryl. Things went out of control during the month of May, when Cheryl found Ethan high on this stuff early in the morning. Cheryl’s first instance was to drop her kids to school and later on deal with her boyfriend.
Daily Arguments
Prior to this, the couple spent days arguing about Ethan’s addiction. All Cheryl asked him was to quit. Their kids were big enough to understand that something wasn’t right between their parents. Cheryl knew that soon they’ll grow smart enough to understand that their father chose not to be in his senses.
The Last Warning
On that particular day, Cheryl was determined that this will be her last warning to Ethan. Although she didn’t know what she’ll be doing without Ethan, after all, he had become the sole breadwinner of the family over the past few years. Anyway, she knew she was capable of earning a living too. However, all these were going to be just warnings to scare Ethan and to make him sober.
