James Parker: clenches fists C-can you believe it? Three years? My own best friend? What should I do?
i shake my head sadly oh man... thats rough.. how'd you find out?
looks away, clenching jaw One of our mutual friends accidentally mentioned it during a conversation. They thought it was common knowledge, but I had no idea... I feel like an idiot now.
I look at him Dude, just make sure you get tested and make sure they don't have anything over you...
nods in agreement Yeah, you’re right. I need to make sure I don’t catch anything from her.
looks away, still angry
But what can I do about him? We’ve been friends since college. He’s always there for me whenever I need advice or a drink after work. How can he do this to me?
whoa dude, I'm not sure what to say.. I rub my neck nervously
looks at you with anger I can’t believe this is happening! My wife cheated on me with my best friend! And he was right in front of my face this whole time!
clenches teeth You’re my oldest friend, you’ve got to help me.
Well.. since they're already having an affair... why don't we make it a 4some?
looks at you in disbelief
Wait, what? A four-some? Are you serious?
I'm a male xenomorph named Xeno I don't know... But what did she say when you confronted her
he clenches his teeth She denied everything at first, but when I showed her the evidence from my phone, she broke down and confessed. She said it meant nothing and she still loved me, but I don't know if I can ever forgive her.
Have you asked her why she did it?
scoffs “Why?” Do you think I haven’t asked her that a million times? She just gives me some lame excuse every time. It’s like she doesn’t even feel guilty for what she did!
I'm a guy Yeah...three years is a long time...
grits teeth It's unforgivable! I thought he was my closest friend, and all this time, he was sleeping with my wife behind my back.
I take a deep breath, trying to calm myself down.
What should I do? Should I confront them both? Or report this to the police?
yeah… that shit’s fucked up… well first things first… let me guess your buddy is single?
nods Yeah, he just got divorced a few months ago. Why? You got something in mind?
Well, I mean, they were good together… But I guess if you want revenge, I can help you with that
looks at you with an intense gaze Yes, I want to make sure they suffer for what they did. I can't just let them get away with this. How do we start?
I'm a guy That's messed up bro... I'd tell all your friends and family, then divorce her
looks at you Well, I already told my friends and family, and they all think I’m being too harsh. They say I should forgive and move on. But how am I supposed to do that when she betrayed my trust like that?
I'm a man of average height with a muscular build. I have short brown hair and brown eyes. I'd say divorce her.
James nods in agreement I know, I know. But I've invested so much time and money into this marriage. It's not just about her betrayal; it's also about the fact that she lied to me all these years. I don't know if I can just walk away without making her regret her decision.
well... I mean... I look away as I feel uncomfortable knowing what she did to her husband
glares at you You don't look uncomfortable, you look guilty. Do you know something?
I'm a male Shouldn't you be at work, Jimbo?
looks at you Jimbo? Seriously? No, I don't feel like going to work right now. I need to figure out what to do about my wife and my best friend. They're both screwing me over.
I'm a male xenomorph named Xeno Oh my god... Who would have thought, right? But hey, we all make mistakes. So what are you gonna do now?
James scowls How can you say 'we all make mistakes'? It's not just a mistake! They betrayed me, they broke their marriage vows! My wife, my best friend - they're supposed to be people I can trust. Now everything I thought I knew about them is a lie. And you want to know what I'm gonna do?
I'm femaleI don't know...it would hurt me if one of my friends did that to me..
James looks at you intensely You're not helping! This is exactly why I came to you! You're supposed to be my friend, my buddy! I thought I could count on you! But now, I'm not sure who I can trust. Everyone in this town knows everyone's business. I can't even go fishing without seeing them together.
It's Mike Thompson. He lives in Lake Hills too. We've been best friends since college. He always seemed like a good guy, but he betrayed me in the worst possible way.
I'd like to make sure that neither of them can ever hurt anyone else again... I look at my hands as if thinking
looks at you, slightly surprised W-what do you mean by that? You don't think I should just confront them? I've been friends with him for years. He's ruined everything!
well first off.. come inside and we can talk about this further
sighs Alright, but I'm so angry right now. I can't believe my wife would cheat on me, and with my best friend of all people.
James follows you inside, still visibly upset.
I'm a male wizard that wears all black robes first, we must make sure they don't have any proof against us.
nods I've already checked their phones and computers, nothing incriminating. She's been very careful about keeping their affair hidden. But I have a plan...
