Another short story...This has some factual basis...
=====================
It was late and she wasn't home yet. "What the hell...?" I thought to myself as I paced back and forth across the living room floor. I felt bad about the argument, but didn't she understand that I was just trying to get through school? An engineering degree was extremely difficult and I had not chosen the easiest school to attend.
I had gone to her job earlier that day and she, of course, looked outstanding. A saleswoman at a local shopping mall was not an ideal job, but we were still young and just barely out of highschool. She had told me that she wanted me at home this evening instead of going out with my buddy to play pool. I didn't understand why she didn't want me to relax and blow off steam. It's not like I was going to find another girl; I mean Sarah was outstanding! She was every guy's dream in the bedroom. She had a great body with large shapely breasts and sex with her was always outstanding. She knew how to please me in every way imagineable.
I wonder if she's cheating on me... I thought to myself. She said she was going to go over to her friend Julie's after work since I was insisting on being out with my friends. "Why should I come home to an empty apartment?" came her words to me as I picked up the keys to my car and headed outside. I walked out of the apartment and drove over to the mall Sarah worked at.
I found her car. It was alone in the parking lot, doors locked. I couldn't imagine anyone would be here at 1:30 a.m. anyways. I picked up my cell phone and dialed Julie's house. After several rings, a barely audible and obviously tired voice said, "Hello..."
"Hey, Julie, it's me...is Sarah there tonight. We fought earlier and she said she might go over there," I asked with blatant irritation in my voice. Julie didn't say anything and I asked again, "Where's Sarah? She hasn't come home yet...."
"Look, she isn't here, but she's safe....okay? Can I go back to sleep?", Julie said with disdain. I appologized and hung the phone up. I decided to leave a note on Sarah's car, telling her I was at home and she should come home right away. I felt like hell all of a sudden; Sarah was constantly telling me that if I didn't pay attention to her, that she would find someone else. It now became quite obvious that she found someone. I went home, but couldn't sleep.
As time slipped by, with me pacing the apartment and constantly watching the clock, I heard the unlocking of the door. I stopped in my tracks and looked at the clock on the wall. It was 7:45 a.m. as Sarah walked in the door. "And where have you been...?", I asked with pain and contempt for my girlfriend. She stood there and looked at me.
"Well...?", I demanded again, "What's going on?" I put my hands on my hips and looke at her, piercing my eyes until her discomfort was broken by her own unfaithful realizations. She grabbed me by the hand and led me to our couch, motioning me to sit down. She looked me in the eyes and paused for what seemed like an eternity.
