Chapter 16 - Emily Leaves the House

Marcus and Emily separated temporarily.
She moved into her sister’s condo.
Not divorce.
Space.
Marcus accepted it.
No dramatic begging.
He started financial therapy.
I did not know that existed.
Apparently it did.
Sessions examined money beliefs.
Shame.
Control.
Status.
Family.
Marcus told me:
“I thought if I built Mom’s gym, nobody could say my career was just you.”
I answered:
“I never said that.”
“I did.”
