My wife, Julie, and I had been back in the States for a few months following three wonderful years of living in Germany where I had been stationed. That Friday evening we were enjoying the end of the week. My head was in her lap as we listened to music playing softly on the stereo. Life was good.
"Mark," she said, "There is something I have to tell you. Please don't hate me. I've been bad."
"What? What do you mean," I asked as I sat up.
"I had sex with someone else while we were still in Germany," she said.
"Who? Who was it," I demanded to know.
"I can't tell you...I don't think I can tell you," Julie replied.
"Glenn! It was Glenn wasn't it!" Glenn had been my best friend and we spent much of our free time together.
"No," she said quickly, "not Glenn. Please don't ask me to tell you."
"It must have been Neal then," I declared. Neal and his wife Carol lived in the third floor apartment upstairs. Carol was Julie's best friend."
"Hell no! Why would you think something like that," Julie asked. "Neal has no appeal at all. There's no way I'd ever have sex with him!"
"Then it must be David," I said accusingly.
Julie's face went ashen. I knew then that I had hit on the name of the guy who had fucked my wife.
"Yes," whispered Julie, "It was David. Please don't be mad at me."
