“I miss you.”

The quiet words from Kyst made Juniper scoff.

“Tell me you don’t miss me, Juniper. Our marriage is fantastic and wonderful. There is no way you don’t miss me.”

“I don’t.” she wasn’t lying. There were three handsome men to distract her from any kind of loneliness, and she’d not needed to lift a single finger or sort out what was going on in someone’s mind since not one of them possessed a filter where she was concerned.

“That’s not true.” Kyst was shocked by her statement.

“It is true, Kyst. See,” she made a face, “the minute I learned you lied to me about where you were when I found out I was pregnant again with what seemed another unviable pregnancy, I knew we were done. I knew in my heart this couldn’t be the first time you’d lied to me about your whereabouts. Do you know how I knew?”

He shook his head.

“Because you did it with such practiced ease. The artifice in your actions. The way you showed up when I was getting back to work and the way you manipulated me into almost feeling sorry for you instead of giving me the opening to ask questions keeps replaying in my mind. You were having coffee with Denise,

playing footsies under a table while the doctor was telling me the spotting and mild cramping could be implantation but that she wasn’t able to detect a heartbeat on the high–tech machine she uses and while she said it might have been too early, in her opinion, it simply didn’t look right. You missed an appointment. with me. You lied about it far too smoothly for it to have been the first time and I realize I don’t miss being lied to.”

“Juni.” His fingers stretched along the table as if he wanted to touch her. “I’m so sorry. I cannot begin to tell you how sorry I am. I know I lied, and I messed up, but you are the only one in my heart. I love you. I’m sorry.”

“You’re sorry you were caught. You’re sorry the status quo has been rocked. You’re sorry that people are talking about you and pointing out how your act of the doting husband was Oscar worthy.”

“I love you. I love taking care of you. I love being with you.”

“You love the performance.” She made a face at him. “You used to give me and Suki a hard time about being in drama but fuck, you should be on a stage, Kyst because the show was spectacular.”

“It wasn’t a show. You are my world. I love you. I do not want to live without you.”

She stared blankly at him, “if this is the gist of our conversation, I should warn you, you’re down to six minutes left and all you’ve done is repeat the same shit you’ve done in every voice mail I haven’t listened to.”

“I don’t know where to start.” He sighed. “I fucked up. I admit it. I fucked up. I got caught up.”

“In cheating.”

“It felt good to be wanted for more than my sperm.”

The audacity of his statement made her want to push the chair back and walk out. She took a moment, cleared her throat, and then met his gaze head on, “we weren’t trying for a baby when you fucked the high school nemesis, Kyst.”

“She found out I was sending messages to a client. She approached me at a work event and told me that either I do what she wants, or she’d tell you. I waited a couple of weeks and there were multiple times she showed up where we were. Finally, I reached out to her because I was scared.”

“And she wanted you to fuck her?”

“Yes.” Kyst looked away. “She demanded a full weekend. She kept saying it was the worst kept secret in high school how you walked bow legged most of the time. She hated you for having me. She said she always had a crush on me. She couldn’t go after you, so she went after your best friend.”

“Why couldn’t she go after me?”

“Because you would have beaten her into the ground with both fists and feet and your mother would have held her down while you did it. Maeve was the one parent who boldly told everyone

who listened how she raised you to stand up to bullies. Suki’s parents barely recognize if she’s around. She was the easier target.”

“And you fucked her.” Juniper said bluntly.

He looked away, shame on his face. “I didn’t want to.”

“Did you come?”

At the blunt question, Kyst blinked, “what?”

“When you were having sex with her, did you come?”

“Juniper.”

“Answer the question, Kyst.”

“Yes.”

“Then you enjoyed what you were doing. This wasn’t a blue pill situation. This was you, actively participating and enjoying being a cheating scumbag.”

“We should go to counselling.”

“I am going to counselling. On my own. Without you.”

“Juniper, I mean couples counselling.”
