Tammy is the perfect wife - a great cook, nurturing to her children and a loving companion to her husband of 10 years - but when he starts craving her expert oral skills and leaving her and her needs high and dry, she yearns for confirmation that she's still attractive, still sexy. It starts with a little summer dress and ends up taking her into a world so dark that it fills her ego and envelops her in an addiction that she is powerless to resist, nor explain...
***********************************
It's not like Tammy had never taken the kids to the bus stop before, and maybe it was because it was such a bright, clear spring morning and everything seemed fresh and new - but she seemed to be getting an little extra eyeballing from the fathers waiting at the stop yesterday morning.
Particularly given the wearing of the cleaning sweats and the hair-up-in-a-bandana, toiling housewife look going on - which is her look most every day, her life revolving around cleaning and shopping and picking up after two kids that were definitely old enough to pick up after themselves.
They were old enough to walk the half block to the bus stop in the mornings too, but she still liked to walk over with them - "on my way to the store" the excuse given - especially since they moved downtown after her husband lost his job and had to settle for one that cut his pay by a third...
...not that downtown was all that bad, just that the bus stop and all of the shopping places were on the main drag, and the traffic was heavy that time of the morning for a town that couldn't even boast a population of 50,000.
