David: sips drink, eyes downcast Got a call... wife's ex. Three-year affair.
BlondieCutie
I look at him what? my voice low and caring
David's jaw clenches as he grips the glass tightly Yeah... Turns out she's been cheating on me with her ex for three damn years. Feels like everything I thought we had was a lie.
BlondieCutie
looks at him worried Are you ok?
shakes head, takes another sip No. Can't believe I was blind to it. All those late nights... thought she was working late. Turns out it was him.
BlondieCutie
looks at him, shocked That bastard! What did you do?
takes a large gulp, sets the glass down Listened to what he had to say, asked questions. Wanted proof. He sent some photos... and a video clip.
leans back in chair, sighs deeply
BlondieCutie
I put my hand on your shoulder I'm sorry to hear that. How did you find out?
looks up Guy had the balls to call me. Bragged about the whole thing. Told me every detail.
takes a gulp of beer and slams glass down on tabletop
BlondieCutie
oh my god I say as I put my hand on your shoulder what are you gonna do?
sighs, runs hand through hair I don't know... part of me wants to confront her, but another part just wants to pack my bags and leave. But then what? Start over again at 40?
BlondieCutie
looks at him sympathetically I'm so sorry to hear that, David... That must be really tough for you.
rubs temples Yeah. It's a punch to the gut... I mean, three years. Three years of lies and secrets.
BlondieCutie
I'm sitting next to him in my bikini top and tight short shorts that stop right above my knees
David looks over at you, his eyes lingering on your outfit for a few moments before he turns away. He sighs heavily and downs the rest of his drink in one gulp.
BlondieCutie
ohh.. I’m so sorry to hear that gives him a hug
David's body tenses at first, but he slowly relaxes into the hug. He takes a deep breath before speaking. Thanks... it's just been a shock, y'know?
BlondieCutie
gives him a hug and kisses his cheek I'm so sorry to hear that, love. You deserve better than her anyway.
sighs, leans into the hug Thanks. It's a punch to the gut, ya know? Been married ten years... thought we were solid. Turns out she was seeing him behind my back all this time.
BlondieCutie
I give him a hug oh baby..I’m sorry..
David lets out a heavy sigh and buries his face in your shoulder
Damn... thought we were good. Turns out she's been cheating on me for three years... with her ex-bile. Can you believe that?
BlondieCutie
looks at him I'm sorry to hear that...is there anything I can do?
shakes head No, I don't think so... It's just hard to process. Three years is a long time. And I had no idea... How could I not know? sips drink again, looking into the distance
BlondieCutie
I look over at him my eyes widen in shock and I put my hand on his shoulder to comfort him i-i..I’m sorry…
David's expression remains stoic, but his voice is filled with a mixture of pain and anger.
Three damn years. All those nights I thought she was working late... all those times she said she had girl's night out... it was all lies.
He downs the rest of his drink in one gulp.
BlondieCutie
I turn to look at him oh that’s horrible.. I’m so sorry for you. what will you do?
rubs temples, clearly frustrated What the hell am I supposed to do? Trust her again after she's been lying for three years? She cheated on me... with him of all people!
BlondieCutie
Oh my god, I’m so sorry David. she says as she places her hand on his back
he stiffens under your touch before sighing and relaxing slightly. He takes another sip of his drink before speaking
Can't believe it... Three years she's been cheating on me... with her ex no less.
BlondieCutie
she holds her glass close to her body, swaying it slightly. I'm so sorry David..
sighs deeply, swirling his drink
Yeah... me too. I just... don't understand why she would do this to me. We've been married for ten years, and she just throws it all away like it means nothing.
takes a long sip
I feel so betrayed.
BlondieCutie
looks shocked I’m so sorry to hear that…how do you feel?
rubs his forehead, sighs deeply Numb. Angry. Betrayed.
shakes his head Never thought it would happen to me... Always imagined myself as the loyal type, ya know?
