His Wife's Place Was Never Mine

Three years married to Morton Delgado, and I had never once appeared on his social media feed. I told myself he was just a private man.

Then came the day his company rang the IPO bell, and the big screen looped a video titled "A Family Message for Mr. Delgado."

His parents were in it. His sister. Even the family dog.

And Sabina Pruitt, standing at his side, smiling as she called out "Happy New Year." But not me.

When I asked him about it, he said, "The company people spliced it together carelessly. Don't blow it out of proportion."
