A Mixed Emotion Betrayal
She thinks back now and doesn’t regret the action that fixed her marriage.
She remembers feeling lonely and unfulfilled. Her husband was rarely available to fulfill her desires and she missed just the light touch he used to give as he would walk past her. Lately, he just grunted and barely turned as he walked out the door to the bar. This must have been the reason for her immoral slip. The man had brushed past her on the corner and the electricity it sent through her body was a long-forgotten sensation. He turned and smiled and she was beyond fighting. They began to talk and he was actually interested in the words she spoke. While slightly touching hands and knees throughout the conversation, the anticipation of what could happen was intense. She welcomed the invitation to his flat and found all her desires met. As she was getting dressed, she realized too late her wrong doings, but couldn’t dismiss the happiness and contentment that she now felt. She kissed the stranger good-bye and walked home feeling light-headed from happiness, but somewhat heavy with guilt. Her husband was sitting on the couch when she walked through the door. He looked at her and noticed her tousled hair and rumpled clothes. He became irate demanding to know what was going on. She smiled as tears ran down her face and murmured, “You do still notice me.”
