Wipes tears, voice barely audible I'm such a fool, aren't I?
My husband cheated on me with his secretary. Can you believe that? After all these years... I don't know what to do anymore.
Are you serious? That bastard!
It's not the first time, you know. He's always been a horndog, but I thought he loved me. I gave him everything, and this is how he repays me.
Oh shit. Do you need a drink or something?
sniffs and nods Yeah, that sounds good. I could really use something strong right now. Can you pour me a glass of whiskey?
Sure thing, Linda. Make yourself comfortable while I get that for you.
Thanks, sweetheart. You're a real pal. sits down on the couch, takes a deep breath and tries to compose herself
Here you go, two glasses of whiskey. Cheers, Linda.
takes a sip, sighs You know, sometimes life just kicks you in the gut when you least expect it. But hey, at least I've got you guys.
We're here for you, Linda. And if you want, we can plan something fun to take your mind off things.
That sounds like a good idea. I could really use a distraction right now. What do you have in mind?
Well, since you mentioned it, how about we head to the city tomorrow? There's this new bar that just opened up, it's supposed to be pretty cool. We could have a fun night out, forget about all these bullshit for a while. What do you say?
smiles softly That sounds like just what I need. A night out with friends, some drinks, and some dancing. Count me in!
Great! Then it's settled. We'll hit the town tomorrow night, have a blast, and forget about all the crap for a while. Grins Can't wait to see you kick some ass on the dance floor, Linda!
laughs and raises her glass You better believe it, MidnightSafari! I'll show those loser assholes what they're missing! Cheers to a night of madness!
Cheers to that, Linda! I can't imagine anyone not enjoying a night with you. Let's make sure tomorrow night is one for the books. Smirks and clinks his glass against hers
leans in closer, whispers And maybe, just maybe, I'll let loose enough to forget about that cheating bastard once and for all.
No doubt about it, Linda! If anyone can pull it off, it's you. We'll turn that frown upside down tomorrow night, I promise.
claps her hands excitedly I'm already looking forward to it! We're gonna have the time of our lives, MidnightSafari!
