The day I find out my wife, Astrid Miller, has cheated on me while pregnant with my child, I begin to suffer from depression. The 99th time I take the pill, hoping to end my life, my baby daughter, Naomi Sage, wails in her stroller. My buddy, Ethan Wilde, digs the pill out from my throat. When Astrid sends me to the ER, she makes me a promise out of sheer guilt. "Charlie, I want you to write down a wish for every single day you remain alive. When you finally get better, I'll grant all your wishes." The day I write down my 1000th wish, the psychiatric hospital releases me. Elated, I go home early to surprise my family, only to find my wedding photo has been replaced with a wall of unfamiliar pictures. Ethan, Astrid, and Naomi smile and pose like a happy family of three in those travel photographs. Beneath an empty frame, a caption reads, "Wonderland". I log into my burner account to browse Ethan's TikTok. The latest video is taken in Wonderland. "This is the last time I'll spend time with you and Naomi. I hope we can be a proper family in our next lives." The comments are filled with lament. There are mutual friends of ours, a colleague of mine… At the bottom is Astrid. "Ethan, thank you for providing me a safe space to breathe in these last three years. If we meet again in our next lives, I hope you'll be my husband." My fingers are trembling as I tap into Ethan's main profile. Thousands of other videos alike fill the screen. For more than three years, he has never once been absent from Astrid and Naomi's lives. I quietly take out my wish list. I erase the last entry, "Being with you forever," and replace it with "I hope you get what you want." Astrid doesn't need to wait for this life to end. Ethan can easily replace me and step up as the better husband and father now. The only catch is that I'll be the first to leave.
