Ten Mystery Boxes to End Our Ten-Year Marriage

On our tenth wedding anniversary, in front of all our friends and family, I gave Julian ten mystery boxes.

He smiled and opened the first one. Inside was a lace nightgown stained with a glistening liquid.

Our friends immediately erupted into suggestive laughter.

"Julian, you and Elena really don't treat us like outsiders."

"No need to share your bedroom secrets with us!"

The room burst into laughter.

Julian froze. I smiled and gestured for him to open the second one.

Inside was an ultrasound report showing three weeks of pregnancy.

"Wow! Elena, you're pregnant!"
