Dorothy let out a deep sigh before suddenly asking, "Do you think Everett and I are completely done for?"

Karen, caught off guard, stuttered, "Huh?"

"I mean, from your perspective, do you see Everett and me splitting up for good? Not in a 'never speak again till we're old and gray' kind of way, but... just not in a romantic or marital relationship anymore."

"Would he let that happen?" Karen instinctively countered.

"Do you think Everett could stand that? I don't think so."

"You think so too, don't you?"

"Yeah." Karen paused for a moment before asking with a hint of confusion, "What's going on, exactly? Everett didn't break up with you, did he?"

Dorothy smirked, "No, he said he needed to think things over. I'm just wondering... if his final decision might be to end things for good."

"No way! He definitely won't do that."

Even Karen was certain of that.
