Dr. Aria arrives for her clinical shift on her wedding anniversary expecting an evening celebration with her husband Michael, only to be assigned an emergency patient named Abigail. Walking into the consultation suite, she freezes at the sight of Michael tenderly holding Abigail's hand, comforting his high school flame through early pregnancy symptoms. Michael does not even realize that Aria was carrying his child or that their anniversary dinner is canceled.
Refusing to engage in a humiliating clinic confrontation, Aria makes two irrevocable choices with chilling composure: terminate her own early pregnancy and file uncontested divorce papers. Packing her personal effects, she resigns her hospital post and relocates across the country without leaving a forwarding address. When Michael discovers the empty house and medical records, he is left to face the unbearable price of his wandering heart.
