Hello, this is my first attempt at a "flash" story. A flash story is less than one page long. I hope you enjoy it. I would like to thank Knightshado2 for reviewing the story. Comments are welcome!

I opened the door, and let my best friend and next door neighbor, Elaine, come into my home. "Elaine, I got the bastard! He's going to cheat on me Friday afternoon!"
"Sharon, you've said this before. Frank is a good husband. I'm not buying it."
I led Elaine to my bedroom, and I pointed to the camera on my dresser. "This time I'm sure. I'll show you the video."
I had plugged the camera into my laptop, and simply reached down and hit the 'Enter' key. The video that my camera picked up started to play. It showed my husband sitting on the bed taking a phone call. We could only hear Frank's side of the conversation, but it was damming enough.
"Please calm down, Grace. I know your upset with your husband, but what can you do?"
...
"Look, a revenge fuck is just another wrong, and two wrongs do not make a right."
...
"Look Grace, you're my subordinate, and I know I have told you that I would help you any way I could, but a revenge fuck is wrong. Do you really want to go through with this?"
...
"No, I can't do that, you know I am going out of town. I'm packing to go to the airport right now. We'd have to do something when I get back in town. Let me check my tickets."
...
Frank went to his briefcase and fished out his tickets. "OK, I get back just after Noon on Friday. I will get home around one, Sharon would still be at work until five, and wouldn't arrive home until five thirty. How about then?"
...
"OK, Grace. Come over on Friday at two o'clock, and I will help you get some revenge on your husband."
I was beaming. I had him! It was Monday afternoon, and I knew when and where! I had my husband by the balls, and he didn't know it! He was even going to fuck one of his subordinates, and I could add an 'Alienation of Affection' lawsuit against his lover, and against his work. This had the earmarks of getting him fired from his job, too. I was going to be able to squeeze every dime out or him in the divorce!
Elaine was stunned, and then she had a smile on her face. "You're going to take him to the cleaners! How can I help?"
"Well Elaine, I wanted to know if you'd like to host a party on Friday afternoon."
Elaine's smile turned into an evil grin, "Let me guess. Maybe around noon, and the main show will begin around two? Who do you want to invite?"
I returned the evil grin, "The question is, who would deal out the most humiliation to Frank."
"Oh Sharon, your not going for the parents, are you?"
"You bet your sweet ass I am!"
The rest of the day was spent running a video wire from my house to Elaine's, and testing it. We set up a second camera outside of Elaine's house to watch the front. We tested the cameras, and Elaine told me she had a clear view from both. I started calling friends to come to a surprise party for Frank. We told them that he was coming home early on Friday, and we would surprise him. I told everyone to park on the next block over, so that they wouldn't spoil the surprise.
My parents came. His parents came. My girlfriends came. I even got Frank's boss, Jason, to come. Everyone was in Elaine's house enjoying frozen Margarita's from the machine that we rented while we showed the view of the camera that looked out over the front lawn on Elaine's big screen TV. Several people went to the front curtains and peeked out, but after some arm twisting, we convinced them to stop.
