In absolutely every scenario I can think of, a good husband would rush to his wife right after she faints. Hell, a good husband would at least try and catch her the second he realizes she’s about to pass out. I left Ellen on the floor as I walked to the refrigerator to grab a beer.
We had both left the normal loving couple in the rear view mirror. She a month or so before beginning an affair and me today documenting her extramarital activities the way a scientist might observe an animal displaying a new behavior.
I’m back in my comfortable overstuffed chair with my fresh beer when she starts to come around. There were no visible injuries as she stands up and walks over to the matching chair. I glance over to make sure the DVD video of them in the motel is paused with her frozen in time sucking Frank’s dick.“You want to tell me how this began.” I say in a surprisingly calm tone.
Ellen takes a moment to compose herself. She’s an attorney after all, not only that I’ve lived with long enough to know how she thinks, or I thought I did.
