“What about the fact I haven’t said anything about the ten pounds you have put on.”
“My marriage is none of your concern!” “You sure because I know the number of nights you spend in my bed and they overshadow the number of nights you’ve been home.”
“Where does Octavia fit in because I am pretty sure she isn’t part of the business?”
“You don’t even have the common decency to control your whore in my presence!”
“I am not sleeping with Octavia.” I walk close to him. “Baby, you may not be sleeping with her but you’re surely screwing her.”
“It is. You want to know the part that hurts the most? The very thing I’ve been wanting, you’ve been giving to someone else. How’s that for a slap in the face?”
While waiting for my sister to come out, I open the envelope to see a picture of Todd asleep with his head on a woman’s chest. I turn it over to read what is written on the back. “While you are in service, pray for your husband to stay at home and out of my bed.”
“How? Last I checked, you are screwing the help and I’m the one being harassed and embarrassed. The least you can do is keep her on a leash and away from your wife.”
She chuckles. “A side piece? Baby, if anybody is a sidepiece, it’s your wife.”
“Meaningless sex? You can call it whatever you want but I remember being the one you came home too after working here all night or the one who rubbed your back prior to putting you to sleep and you call it meaningless?”
“She already did but it didn’t work.” I laugh. “She thought having an affair would get my attention and I pretended like it did. I went home and we argued but it did not stop me from going home with Octavia the next night.”
“Your wife isn’t my problem, she’s yours and she didn’t seem to be a priority when you were spending every night with me.”
“So, you were laying up with another woman while your wife was getting the crap beat out of her?”
“We didn’t have sex; she gave me oral in the truck.” “Does she have the capability to pay somebody to do this?”
“When did this affair start?” “About five months ago?” “Where did you meet her?” “At my restaurant, she was my Sous Chef.”
“Your wife was hurt the moment you started the affair. Sit tight for me.”
Dude, facing me should not be hard unless you’re guilty of something.”
“You were with her the night I was attacked?”
“Rylee, it was just oral sex.” “Yea, well it is also just your marriage.”
“My second wife’s name was Laylah. I met her when she would come to Memphis on business. I was still married to my first wife and— “ “So, you’ve always been a cheater?” Rylee inserts.
