Separation

I was around 12 or 13 when my parents got separated. I remember staying up late waiting for my mom to get home from work but she wouldn't be there next morning. I knew then something was wrong and my dad wasn't feeling so thrilled about it either. He confronted my mom and we sort of “knew” there was a third party involved, but she kept denying it. I can recall them fighting a lot and eventually my mom decided it was best for her to leave the house. So she did.
