As soon as Anni spoke those words, it was not only Andrew who was stunned. It was all of us. Everyone seems to have fallen in a still silence.
"Anni, what did you say?" It was Anni's mother who spoke first. Her voice trembled with every word. Her face is filled with surprise, as if she couldn't believe what she had just heard.
"I said I want a divorce!" Anni paused and said slowly, her tone very firm.
"Anni, you're crazy!" Andrew stood up abruptly and took a few steps back in shock. His face twisted incredulously, and he replied with an almost screaming voice, "I don't agree! I will not divorce you!"
Andrew's parents probably hadn't expected Anni to file for divorce at this point. Andrew's mother curled her lips and said, "Anni, you can't be serious about this. You will only regret this in the end."
