Okay so, the twist doesn't really work because one has to be lacking in what is called "attention span" completely to day dream while a baby is presumabely kicking and or screaming in their arms as they clean said baby. One has to be mentally deficient to be able to "forget" they were holding a baby long enough to be able to wander around their apartment, let alone go on a joy ride to God knows where.

I could let it slip and call it "extreme grief as a plot device" but I can't, considering you've established the guy is just an asshole who seemingly couldn't be assed with raising a child and only mourns his wife cause he can't bone her any longer. So, I don't feel bad for the guy, and thus the story does not work.
