Bad Intel on Cheating Spouse Part 3 -- The Aftermath

After Speaking with Jane, Maree tossed the phone on the bed and began hurriedly getting dressed.
Mike asked, "What's going on Babe?"
"Family emergency, I have to get home now! I will talk to you later."
Thirty minutes later, Maree was pulling into the driveway and saw Ann and Jane setting in Jane's car. She approached them and asked, "What happened and is Gary inside?"
Jane relayed the events of this morning to Maree and told her that Gary had asked them to leave so they were waiting to see her before she met with him.
"Are you going to be all right?" asked Jane.
Maree said, "Well time will tell on that. I am not looking forward to this. I fucked up royally listening to what you said and not asking him about it."
Jane said, "I meant will he get violent with you? Are you afraid of him?"
Maree replied, "Gary won't hurt me. Not physically. He has hardly ever raised his voice to me. I have to see him. I have to straighten this out if I can. I will talk to you later."
"Gary? I'm home! Baby I am so sorry! I fucked up and should have talked to you first. Gary, where are you?" Gary was not downstairs so Maree climbed the stairs toward their bedroom. She hoped it was still "their" bedroom. Upon reaching the door, she heard the shower. "Gary, I'm so sorry she yelled through the closed locked bathroom door. I should have talked to you first. I love you so much baby."
"I'll be out in a bit was the only reply."
Maree quickly changed out of her clothes from her encounter with Mike and put on some yoga pants and a t-shirt along with comfortable shoes. She went to the kitchen to make coffee and wait on Gary. She noticed the ashtray on the kitchen table with lipstick stains on the filters and three coffee cups. She dumped the ashtray thinking about her friends smoking for her husband and what she had done with Mike to punish Gary. Punish Gary? He apparently hadn't done anything to be punished for. She placed the used coffee cups in the sink and started some fresh coffee.
Maree was thinking of what she needed to say to Gary to make everything better. Should she light a cigarette and be smoking when he came down. Probably not a good idea right now.
She was trying to put herself in Gary's place to anticipate his thoughts, questions, and actions. It wasn't working. Maree was sitting at the table, hot fresh hazelnut coffee in her favorite mug, thinking about her actions as tears silently ran down her cheeks.
How could she have been so stupid she thought? She suddenly remembered the cock cage and mailing the key to her cousin. Shit, Shit Shit, she thought, the damn thing is probably still in the mailbox by the bank. The postal people might not pick-up on Saturday and definitely not on Sunday so, if it goes out in the mail Monday it will probably be Wednesday before it gets to Oklahoma and then another 2-3 days to get back here.
She heard Gary coming down the stairs and as he approached her, she immediately said, "Baby, I am SO SORRY! I should have talked to you first. I know I messed up but I love you and I am so sorry."
"Okay Maree, I get it. You're sorry.
"Gary it didn't mean anything. It was just revenge for... for what I thought was your cheating on me."
"There's the rub Maree. I didn't cheat. Who all knows about this situation and this metal cage bullshit?"
"Jane, Janet, me, you and the guy I was with.
"Mike O'Sullivan? You can't say his name?
"I am so ashamed of myself; I guess I didn't want to say his name."
"Call him."
"What"
"Maree, I want you to call Mike O'Sullivan and invite him over here."
"Why do you want me to call him?"
"Maree, call him and invite him over here. I am trying to save your reputation and our marriage. Unless you want to divorce me for NOT cheating on you.
"No. No. No. I'll call him but what should I say?"
"I don't really care what you tell him. I want him here in our house so we can reach an understanding about what has transpired."
Maree made the phone call and asked Mike to come to her house that she needed him. She then hung up. Mike immediately called her and asked if Gary had hurt her and she told him that she was fine but needed to see him again as soon as possible.
Mike arrived about fifteen minutes after he was called and knocked on the door where he was met by Maree and invited in. They went to the kitchen table and Mike asked her if she was sure, she was all right. At that time, Gary entered the kitchen and Mike stood and said, "Well if it's not the cock caged cuck himself."
