"I'll miss you." Natalie told her husband as he was walking out the door, heading back to his native France.
"I'll miss you too, and you too." He kissed their baby Aleph, who was in Natalie's arms, on the forehead before kissing Natalie and leaving.
She waved her son's hand as Benjamin got in his car and headed towards the airport. Natalie re-entered the house and put the child into his crib. Suddenly, a sound came from the kitchen. She walked in and found her husband's cell phone going off. Curious as to who was texting him, she picked up the phone and saw the name "Jenni" pop up.
"Who is Jenni?" She thought to herself.
She opened the text message and was shocked by the message. It read, "I hope u r on ur way, I really need you. I'm hungry and need your meat." As she was reading, another message came through reading, "I bet u can't wait to get here, that cunt Natalie doesn't know how to make u feel like a REAL man, but I sure do."
Natalie sat down as she began to feel faint. The anger and depression running through her mind were beginning to take over. She jumped when she heard a door slam outside her house. Knowing that her husband realized he forgot his phone, she deleted the messages and placed the phone back on the counter. She gathered herself up and walked towards the door as he stepped in. Natalie did what she did best and put on an act to prevent him from noticing any distress.
"Forgot my phone." He walked past her and retrieved the phone. "Bye love." He kissed her again and walked back out the door.
"Bye baby." She yelled back.
Once the car pulled away, Natalie sat down on the couch and sobbed into her hands. She couldn't believe that the man she loved, the man who fathered her child, was cheating on her. She had wondered why he was heading to the airport three hours early but never suspected any wrongdoing. Now she felt alone.
After an hour of crying, she heard the mail truck pulling away outside. She wiped her eyes with a tissue and gathered herself up before exiting the house to retrieve the mail. She slowly walked her way to the mailbox and got the large amount of mail out. There was too much to handle and all of it fell out of her hands and onto the ground.
"Damn it!" She yelled out.
This caught the attention of her neighbor's eighteen year-old son.
"I'll help you out Ms. Portman." The tall, long-haired teenager walked towards her and helped her pick up the mail.
"Thank you, Jimmy." She said, sniffling.
"Are you ok Ms. Portman, you look like you've been crying." He looked up at her as he continued to retrieve the fallen mail. Natalie sniffled and remained silent. "Ms. Portman?"
"It's nothing Jimmy, thank you though. Can you get the door for me?" Jimmy walked up to the door and held it open for her as her hands were too full to do it herself.
Jimmy carried the last few letters in and placed them on the table as Natalie sat down. She was still sniffling and trying to hide her tears.
"Thank you for helping me Jimmy. Can I get you something to drink or eat?"
"No thanks, I don't need anything. Are you sure you're okay?" She nodded at him. "Okay, I guess I'll go home now before my dad yells at me."
Natalie watched as he walked away until she yelled out, "Wait!" He turned around and saw that she was approaching him. Once she reached him, she placed a hand on his shoulder. "I could use your help getting something out of my closet. I'm too short to reach it and could use a tall man like you."
"Okay, but I should tell my dad first." He responded.
"Hold on, can you carry Aleph up to his room and put him in the crib while I go talk to your dad?" She picked up her son and handed him to the boy.
"Okay, where is his room."
"Upstairs, the first door on the right." He walked up the stairs as Natalie went outside to talk to Jimmy's dad.
"Excuse me, Mr. Long?" The man, who was working on his car, turned around.
"Hi Natalie, what can I do for you?"
"I need Jimmy's help with some things around the house since my husband is off in France. Can I borrow him for an hour?" Her voice sounded a bit flirty.
"Sure thing, just make sure he does the job right and does everything you ask." She smiled as those words crossed her ears.
"I'm sure he will do everything perfectly. Thank you." She turned around and walked back into the house.
Natalie entered the house and ran up the stairs, finding Jimmy standing in the hallway. He was looking a picture of Natalie at the last Academy Awards holding her award. She walked up behind him and placed her hand on his shoulder.
"That was the best day of my life." She told him. "Come on into my room, I need you to get some boxes down." She led him into her bedroom, her eyes looking down at his ass. She opened the closet door and pointed at the boxes. "Can you get those down for me?"
"Sure thing Ms. Portman."
"You can stop with the 'Ms. Portman', just call me Natalie."
"Okay Natalie." He reached up and retrieved the boxes, one at a time, and placed them on the floor. As he reached for the last one, he felt her hand press against his ass. He turned around and looked in her eyes. "Did you just touch me in the butt?" Natalie smiled.
"Maybe I did." She said softly.
"Why did you do that? Aren't you married?" He was confused.
"I just found out my husband's been sleeping around with some whore...so no, I don't really think of myself as 'married' anymore." She grabbed onto his arm.
"But...but...aren't I too young for you. I mean no disrespect but aren't you almost twice my age?"
"I'm only twelve years older than you and we are both over eighteen. Your dad is ten years older than your mom, so it shouldn't be weird at all for you." She pulled herself close to him and kissed his lips. "Besides, I asked your dad if I could borrow you for an hour and he did say that you had to do 'everything I asked'."
"Really?" He began sweating. "I...I don't...I don't know Natalie, this doesn't feel right." He tried to push her away but she held onto him.
"It feels right to me. Please? I've had a terrible day. Please don't make my day worse by walking away." She bit her lower lip and gave him a sad look.
"Damn, I don't know." His voice was cracking. "It just-" She started kissing his neck. "Wow, that feels really-" She began running her hands through his long hair while pushing her body against his. "Oh my god, I think I should go." He tried to leave but she pulled him back and shoved him lightly on to the bed.
"I bet I can change your mind." She got down on her hands and knees and crawled to him. She ran her hands up his legs and up to his belt. "Have you ever had a woman touch you here?" She grabbed onto the bulge in his pants, causing him to jump.
