Foreword
This is a RAAC
First I want to apologize to BlackRand1958( Read the story
Vagabonds
she wrote. Best story in Literotica in my opinion.) for my screw up on the first part of this story. She edited it and I posted the wrong version. I had eye trouble and was seeing double and blurriness due to eye infection (both eyes). So my Grammar was twice as bad as normal. I posted the version before the final version that she edited because of it.
That's the reason I didn't finish the first. My eyes were in excruciating pain at the time. I needed to let them rest.
To commentor who said I was just an antagonist in the first story You win the booby prize.
I had no agenda. I just I just wanted to write a reverse, "Honey we have to talk." Men argue with facts and women argue with emotion. That is why in 35 years I have never won an argument with my wife. Never clutter the issue with facts. That is why I used the information from online sources for Alan to use.
Again I want to thank George Anderson for allowing me to use is story. February Sucks.

.
This is the conclusion to my version February Sucks Forward.

Also don't bother to comment on my Grammar this is my style of writing. I will not change.

Alan staggered trying to gain control of his reflexes. He fell against the wall, trying to steady himself. He reached for the suitcase. His hand shook so bad it took three times before he eventually found the handle. Terri sprawled out on the floor crying. When Alan reached the door he opened it. As he walked out, he turned and spoke, trying to catch his breath from crying, "Terry your forgiven." Then he closed the door behind him.
Now the Conclusion
1 year later
Terri walked into Morrison's and saw Dee waiting for her at a table sitting alone, "Hey Dee, how are you doing?" With an expressionless smile.
"All right, I guess. It has been pretty rough since my divorce, but I am surviving," sighed Dee. " That was the stupidest thing I ever did. My god Terri, how much weight have you lost? You look anorexic."
"Dee," sobbing Terri. "I just can't get over Alan. I can't sleep or eat. My legs feel like they weigh a ton. I just want to die."
"Sweety," smiled Dee, "I do understand how you feel. But I have a surprise for you tonight that should make you feel better. I think it will bring a smile to your face." Five minutes later, the band walked in, and the music started playing.
Dee bent over towards Terri and pointed to the table across the room. She pointed at the table with a reserved sign on it, "Look, some VIP must be coming in tonight. I hope it is a famous actor."
A few minutes later, a beautiful woman and her entourage came walking in and headed towards the u-shaped booth across the room. She sat alone with two bodyguards standing at each entrance to the booth.
She ordered two drinks, one for her and another for the empty spot next to her. She kept looking at her watch as if she was waiting on someone. She picked up her phone and dialed. She started talking and carrying on what seemed like a pleasant conversation, laughing.
"Looked!" squealed a wide-eyed Dee. "It's Valarie Perry. God, she is beautiful."
Terri smiled a little and informed Dee, "She is on Alan's so-called
hall pass list
."
Raising her eyebrows, "What kind of list?" asked Dee.
Terri explained to Dee, "It was our lists. We each had our own list containing famous people of the opposite sex. He had 10 women on his, and I had ten men listed on mine. That list would allow us a hall pass to go to bed with them. We could do it without getting a divorce. It was just something we did as a joke."
Raising her eyebrows with interest and chuckling, " I wish I had one of those before I went to bed with Marc LaValliere."
This caused Terri's mouth to come open with dismay, " Dee, what kind of crap is that. The list was just for fun and teasing. Cheating is cheating. If it wasn't for my entitled ass and my big mouth, I would still be married too, Alan. And even if you can get away with it is not right. Too bad I didn't realize that earlier."
A minute later, Dee got up and informed Terri, "I'll be right back. I want you to meet a friend of mine." Terri sat drinking her coke. Dee came back dragging a large, extremely, good-looking man with her. "Terri, I want you to meet Marc LaValliere. He is the starting tight end for the Shark's. Marc, this is Terri."
Marc took her hand and kissed it and asked, "Would you like to dance?" lovely lady.
"No, thank you," Terri replied. "I am sorry, I am just not in the mood."
"Terri!" exclaimed Dee with astonishment. "This is Marc LaValliere!" everywoman in here tonight wants to be with him. Terri again apologized, "I am sorry, Mr. Lavalliere, I am just not in the mood." Marc smiled, "He must be some man," with a sigh.
"He is," sobbed Terri.
"How about me, Marc?" asked Dee. "I would love to dance with you."
Marc laughed, "Nope, I have done had, you. I am going to try Valarie Perry there. It was nice meeting you, Terri. If you change your mind, let me know." Dee sat in shock.
He tried to speak to Valarie, but her two bodyguards made it clear she had other plans. Marc walked back by Dee and Terri. Dee smiled and asked, "Do you want to dance now?"
"No, thanks Dee," replied Marc. "I see a couple of married women that just came in. If I strike out with them, I'll come back." Dee couldn't believe it. She finally realized what she threw away for her
once-in-a-lifetime experience
. Both women sat drinking feeling, alone.
Dee was first to see the man from his backside walking towards Valarie's table. "Terri, there is her date," whispered Dee. She is married. I wonder if he is an actor. Isn't she married? This is so exciting."
As the man sat down at the table. The bodyguard blocked Terri's view of him. She explained her thoughts to Dee, "You know I don't believe they are together. She is sitting in the middle of the booth at least 3 ft from him. If they were lovers, she would be sitting right next to him."
Men kept walking over to Dee and Terri and asking them to dance. Dee always excepted their invitations, but Terri just sat and watched. After one of the dances, Dee came over panting, "Terri, you've got to get over Alan. And the only way you will do it is to meet other men."
All of a sudden, Terri squealed, "Dee, look, it's Alan. My god, he looks great. God, I miss him," as she started crying.
Alan turned and saw Terri and turned pale. He leaned in and said something to Valarie and took off towards the restroom. Terri could see the pain he that was still in his face from their divorce. She sat there crying from all the wounds opening up again.
She had her head down sobbing. They both heard a woman's voice say, "excuse me." They looked up, and she saw Valarie Perry standing at their table asking, "May I join you, Terri?" Terri was in shock as Valarie slid into the booth without waiting for an invitation. Valarie sat facing Dee when she asked, "What is your name, dear?"
Dee answered, "My friends call me Dee."
Valarie smiled, "Nice to meet you, Dee. Would you mind giving Terry and me some privacy? You can sit at my table and have your drinks on me." With a disappointed look, Dee got up and left the two to talk alone.
Valarie turned to Terri and smiled, "So you're the great Terri James that broke Alan's heart."
Terri burst into tears, "yes," sobbing uncontrollably again.
Valarie put her hands onto Terri's. "I want to congratulate you. I have never seen a man destroyed like how you did it. And without him actually seeing his wife cheat on him."
Terri was trying to get control of herself, "I know. How do you know I am his ex-wife?"
Valarie smiled and replied, "From his desk. Your picture still sits on it. He took over my account when he was promoted to VP. We have become quite close in a brother and sister way. I am happily married. But I will tell you if I wasn't, he would be on top of my list."
