“My love, when are we doing a hotel night again? I miss you.”
I honestly thought I was reading it wrong.
Then I opened it.
Jokes about how easy it was because I trusted them both.
There were months of messages.
That was the part that hit hardest. Not one drunken mistake. Not one terrible lapse. A pattern. A routine. A second relationship.
Hotel confirmations. Flirty messages. Photos. Complaints about me. Jokes about how easy it was because I trusted them both. Plans built around my schedule. References to work trips that were not work trips.
