It is often said that in life, things are not always what they seem, especially when it comes to relationships.
At first glance, one may think that divorce is simply a matter of two people who go in their separate ways, each of which leaves with several things and a sense of finality. But what if the behind the scenes was a thoughtful plan?
What if the person who appeared defeated was actually under control, and struck his time for the perfect moment to return? This is the story of Barba, whose quiet power and patience changed the painful divorce into a final triumph.
What looked like a typical breakup will soon become a master class when turning the tables, and eventually it was Mike who left nothing but a lesson in humility.
Walking through divorce is never easy, no matter how worrying marriage could be. The whole process – separating property, struggle for childcare and emotional toll – can release your time, money and patience.
One evening, when Barbra was preparing dinner, Mike – who was always interested in his social position – placed the keys of the car on the counter and announced that he had to speak. Barbra immediately knew what was coming. She could say that she was going to ask for divorce, and it wasn’t long before the words were expressed.
On Mike’s shock, Barbra calmly agreed to the department.
He expected to beg, cry, or try to convince him differently, but showed no emotions. Although it hurts inside, kept calm, determined not to show any weakness.
On the days that followed, they barely communicated until they were sitting in the boring conference room with lawyers present.
Mike began to list on the list of things he wanted – a house, a car, savings – in a separate way as if he had read the shopping list.
After listening to his requirements without Barbra protest, he replied that it could have it all.
Her lawyer picked up the eyebrows, but Barbra insisted that she was fine. Everything she wanted was her personal belongings.
Mike, with a grin, thought he had won, told her that she had only in the afternoon to take what was hers, and leave the house forever.
As she stepped out of the room and entered the elevator, Barbra could not suppress her laughter. It seemed to have barked, but in fact she had something on her sleeve. As soon as the elevator’s door opened, he quickly sent his mom: “Mom, get ready for my sweet revenge.”
Barbr’s mother never liked Mike. From the first time they met, she knew she wasn’t the right person for her daughter. Both of them never got because her mother saw Mike concentrated, just taking care of his own interests.
When Barbra and Mike bought a house, it was her mother who helped them financially. Mike believed that he got a lot on the property, but he did not know that his father -in -law would be the one who made him lose him.
When Barbra settled in a small apartment just a few blocks from here, she got a call from Mike. She put him on the speaker and leaned, enjoying her toast and a sweet taste of victory. Mike was angry and told her that her mother moved with him and refused to leave.
Barbra smiled and reminded him of an agreement he signed years ago when her mother gave them a deposit for the house. Buried in a small press was a clause that allowed her mother to live where she decided, as long as she wanted.
Barbra laughed at her triumph and heard her mother in the background and told Mike to turn off the television. It was clear that her mom knew exactly how to crazy.
Finally, Barbra’s calm and folded approach to divorce proved to be a strategic step, allowing her to demand a final victory. While Mike thought he came to the top, he was blind to the fact that Barbr’s mother organized a perfect return. What Mike thought it was a clean victory became his worst nightmare when Barbr’s mother took a place in the house and turned the tables on his arrogance. Barbra not only exceeded him, but also managed to find a sense of peace and satisfaction because she knew that the tables had turned to her favor. The best revenge is sometimes not about confrontation – it is patience, planning and leaving karma to do work.
