The Doctor’s Shocking News: Will Larry Divorce Bethany?
THE DOCTOR’S SHOCKING NEWS:
WILL LARRY DIVORCE BETHANY?
INT. HOSPITAL ROOM – DAY
The room is completely silent. Bethany sits on the hospital bed with trembling hands. Every second feels heavier than the last as she waits for the doctor. Her heart races with fear, hoping the test results will bring good news.
The door slowly opens. The doctor walks inside carrying Bethany’s medical file. His serious expression immediately fills the room with tension.
DOCTOR
Bethany… your surgery was successful, and your life is no longer in danger. However… there is something extremely difficult that I need to tell you.
BETHANY
Doctor… please don’t scare me. Whatever it is… tell me the truth.
DOCTOR
After carefully reviewing your reports, I’m deeply sorry to say this… because of the surgery, your reproductive system has suffered permanent damage.

Bethany… you will never be able to become a mother.
The room becomes completely silent. Bethany stares at the doctor in disbelief. The papers slip from her shaking hands.
BETHANY
No… No… That can’t be true. Please tell me there’s another treatment… Another surgery… Anything…
DOCTOR
I’m truly sorry. Every specialist reviewed your case. Unfortunately… There is no medical procedure that can change this.
Bethany covers her face and bursts into uncontrollable tears. Years of dreams disappear within a single moment.
BETHANY
I’ve dreamed about holding my own baby… I’ve imagined becoming a mother for so many years… Why did this happen to me?
The doctor quietly leaves the room to give her privacy. Bethany remains completely alone with her heartbreak.
MOMENTS LATER
Bethany picks up her phone. Larry’s name appears on the screen. Her finger moves toward the call button… but she cannot press it.
BETHANY
How can I tell Larry? How can I destroy all of his dreams? He has always wanted children.
Tears continue rolling down her cheeks. She remembers Larry smiling whenever he talked about starting a family.
BETHANY
What if Larry leaves me? What if he decides he deserves someone who can give him children? What if… he divorces me?
Her breathing becomes faster. Her vision turns blurry. Fear completely takes over her heart.
BETHANY
I can’t lose Larry. He’s my whole world. I don’t know how to live without him.
Bethany slowly tries to stand. Her legs suddenly become weak. She loses her balance.
She collapses onto the floor. Medical papers scatter across the room. Her tears soak the hospital floor.
HOSPITAL HALLWAY
A nurse hears the loud noise and rushes inside. The doctor quickly follows behind.
NURSE
Doctor! Bethany has collapsed!
DOCTOR
Bethany… Please stay calm. You’ve gone into emotional shock. Try to breathe slowly.
BETHANY
Please… Don’t tell Larry yet. I’m not ready. I need time.
DOCTOR
I understand. But eventually… He deserves to know the truth.
LATER THAT EVENING
The sun begins to set outside the hospital window. Bethany quietly sits beside the bed, staring into the distance.
BETHANY
Maybe Larry deserves someone better. Someone who can give him everything I no longer can. Would he still love me after hearing the truth? Or will today become the day our marriage ends?
MEANWHILE – LARRY’S OFFICE
Larry smiles while looking at a photo of himself and Bethany. He has absolutely no idea that Bethany’s world has fallen apart.
LARRY
I can’t wait until Bethany comes home. Everything is going to be alright. We’ll keep building our future together.
Larry picks up his phone and calls Bethany. Her phone rings. She stares at the screen through her tears… but cannot answer.
BETHANY
I’m so sorry, Larry… I never wanted our dreams to end like this.
TO BE CONTINUED…

Will Larry stand beside Bethany after learning she can never become a mother?

Or will this heartbreaking truth destroy their marriage forever?
