A day of anger, revenge, horniness, led to a total change in my life several months ago. I had listened to neighbors, so called friends, a story about my husband that in hind sight I did not verify or find ample proof for. Based on my emotions at the time, I made a decision that would have serious consequences for many people, most especially my husband and I.
First some background. I am a told I am quite a pretty woman, mid thirty's with reddish brown hair that I wear quite long. I am 5' 5" 128 pounds and am somewhat curvy with a 36D bust. My legs have gotten a few wolf whistles over the years, especially paraded about in my one piece bathing suit, cut up the leg, past the hip. I am a stay at home wife, having done a few years in the job market as an administrative assistant to a VP of a major oil firm. Now I stay home and in my spare time work out and generally enjoy some comforts that my husband provides thru his work. My husband Jeff has his own law practice after years of toiling with the same oil firm that I was with.
We have been married almost six years, not yet quite long enough for the legendary seven year itch. For the most part we had a satisfactory love life, though the stress of work sometimes got to Jeff and his tiredness sometimes blew out the romance before it could begin. I took everything in stride, knowing that we had a strong love and the lovemaking would return even when the schedule made us make compromises.
However over the past several weeks it has gotten slower and slower for Jeff to respond. I thought at first it must be work again, but his hours were not any longer than normal and he didn't write briefs or anything while home. Yes he got calls on his blackberry, but nothing that he didn't cut off quickly. No, it was just something slightly different, that I just could not figure out. When Jeff came to bed, he quickly turned over, said goodnight and was sound asleep. No amount of prodding, fondling his nuts or cock, could get him to reciprocate.
I had the standard thoughts, I guess as many women do, has he lost interest, is there some physical malady, or is it stress related. We just didn't talk about it much. I would ask what's wrong, his response, about what? I certainly hoped it was a temporary thing, something that would rectify itself with some time.
I threw myself into keeping the house spotless and the lawn manicured with the help of David, a sweet high school kid, who did a fabulous job with the grass and shrubbery. I was the first on the street to give him work, now he pretty much did half the homes on our block.
We had a pool installed when we moved into the house about four years ago, so one of David's perks was he was allowed to swim after his mowing was done to cool off. He usually saved our house for the last of the day, basically so he could frolic in the pool and then go home.
The chain of events started this way. My neighbor Ruthie, an older woman than me, probably early 50's came knocking on my door. Now she and I were friendly, but not buds. We probably were on the level of telling some things to each other but nothing personal. So I was somewhat startled when she asked how things were between Jeff and me.
"Hon, is there any problem you want to share with me" she began.
I played coy. "What sorts of problem are you referring to?" I quizzed.
Ruthie was not deterred and after adjusting herself in the chair, she spoke after exhaling a lot of air. "I know about Jeff."
"Know what about Jeff?" I was curiously asking.
"About him and Stephanie Carlson."
This time I was surprised. The Stephanie Carlson I knew of was a glamorous business woman in town who often did commercials for her enterprises. Her family owned a furniture super store, a designer showroom and she personally was into design, both clothes and jewelry. She was a beautiful woman, a tall blonde with a fabulous figure and great natural beauty. That she and my Jeff would be an item was unbelievable and yes, laughable.
I was curious now. "What about Carlson and Jeff?"
"Well honey, you know I don't like to kiss and tell (that was a bald-faced lie, she loved it) but I saw them together at the Rivoli having dinner."
The Rivoli was just about the ritziest dining venue in town. Reservations were like kruggerrands and worth just as much. The only way Jeff would dine there is if he were the invited party. Jeff was not cheap, but he was practical, a $300 dinner was not his style.
Ruthie was beginning to irritate me now with her gossip, so I was planning to toss her out for this infringement on my marriage. I told her it was time to go as I had errands, so she got up and walked in front of me to the door. She then turned and laid another one on me.
"You know, they have been seen together before by others."
This was beginning to piss me off. First, to throw her two cents in; but now to have knowledge of others witnessing my spouse's infidelity. Finally ushering her out, I closed the door quickly and with my back to the door, started to hyper ventilate.
Jeff was a good and faithful man, there was a good explanation for all this and I was going to find out for myself.
I called Ms Carlson's office and asked for her. I was told she was not in, would I like to leave a message. I then asked if she had any business meetings with Jeff Meadows and that I was his wife. After a short pause, the receptionist said that Ms Carlson's business meetings were confidential and she would not give out that information. I was not surprised by this, but the tone from the lady on the phone left me concerned. Something about the way she responded to me did not feel right.
I then called Jeff's office and was told he went out for a business lunch. Seeing that it was only ten thirty in the morning; struck me as odd to. I also knew that if Jeff went to lunch, his favorite place was Sal's, a little Italian place not far from our home.
All this was feeling very odd to me and I could not seem to wrap my mind around any of it. As I was pacing the floor in the kitchen, the doorbell rang which startled me. Thinking it might be Ruthie again, I was preparing to lay into her. Opening the door I was surprised to find a young man standing there. He was very handsome, well built and quite tan who looked like he spent a great deal of time outdoors. It was awkward at first, both of us just staring and not talking.
Finally he opened his mouth. "Hi, I'm Alan, David's brother. He is feeling sick today and I'm helping him out on his yard work. I understand that this is your normal day for service, Mrs. Meadows."
Still a little set back by the good looks of this young man, I stammered out a response. "Why yes, today is the normal day. Is David all right?"
"Oh yeah, came the answer. He has the flu and being outside and active caused him to get weak and tired. I'm home from college and was just relaxing, so I offered to lend a hand. He should be in good shape in a couple of days."
"Good. Is there anything you need?"
"No, David gave me a good rundown of what needs to be done."
"All right then, I answered. I'll leave you to it. I may go out in a little bit, but I should be back soon."
