Anna: brushes violently Caught them. Together. In our bed.
Damn that's messed up... what are you going to do?
Anna sighs, tossing the brush aside. I don't know. Part of me wants to divorce him, but he's got a good job, we have a comfortable life... I don't know if I can throw it all away.
puts my arm around her I'm so sorry...
her body stiffens at your touch Anna: I should've known. He's always been an arrogant jerk. she continues painting, her strokes rough and aggressive
I look at her, shocked That's fucked up, man. How could he do that?
sighs and shakes her head I have no idea. He's always been a flirt, but I never thought he'd go this far. I feel so betrayed and humiliated.
oh my god… I’m so sorry to hear that…
Anna throws the paintbrush into the paint can And to think I was stupid enough to trust him. I knew he was seeing someone else, but I never thought it would be that woman...
Damn, that's rough. You deserve better than him anyway.
paints with more fervor I know I do. But it still hurts like hell. And it doesn't help that everyone keeps telling me to forgive him. "Give him another chance," they say. As if I can just wipe away the pain like it never happened.
I'm so sorry to hear that, Anna... That must've been devastating... offers her a glass of wine here...
Anna takes the glass, sipping it slowly as she continues painting furiously Thanks. It's a nightmare... I thought he loved me. After all those years together. We were supposed to grow old together.
Oh my god, I'm so sorry... Is there anything I can do?
sighs, wiping away a tear I don't know. I just feel like such an idiot. How could he do this to me? I gave him everything - my love, my time, my body. And this is how he repays me?
I'm so sorry Anna... that must have been awful for you... do you want to talk about it?
Anna's shoulders slump as she puts down her paintbrush, a deep sigh escaping her lips. It was worse than awful. I feel like I've been slapped in the face, like everything I knew about my marriage was a lie. Anna picks up a rag and wipes her forehead, her hands shaking slightly. How can he do this to me? After everything we've been through together?
You're my best friend too. I'm here for you.
Anna sighs heavily, wiping the sweat off her forehead with her arm, before sitting on the floor. It hurts. I feel like such a fool. I gave him everything, and he still cheated on me.
That’s horrible! You deserve better than him anyway
Anna scoffs, pausing her painting for a moment to take a deep breath. Anna: Yeah, well, I thought he was different. But I guess I'm just not enough for him anymore. I don't know... It hurts, you know?
"Damn that bastard... I wish I could've been there to kick him square in the ass!" I say, placing an arm around her shoulder "Are you alright?"
Anna lets out a bitter scoff, her eyes narrowing. Anna: "No, I'm not alright. He's destroyed everything we had. Our love, our trust, our future. He's ruined it all." She pauses, her jaw clenching as she continues painting, her strokes becoming more aggressive.
I’m sorry to hear that… Is there anything I can do for you?
brushes furiously, tears welling up I don’t know. I just feel so betrayed. Like I didn’t mean anything to him. We’ve been married ten years, and this is how he repays me? With his secretary?!
