Rey looked in his car, below the seats looking for where the hell his phone had gone. Not that it had pawn of his own? He found it beneath the car seat. He picked it up as his gaze gravitated towards a piece of crumbled paper lying on the car floor. He picked it up and opened it.
Amsterdon motel
It read. It was a bill of a room in amsterdon motel. Not much of a right place to stay at. He checked on for the date as he didn't recognized the receipt well.
It was the receipt for a room with a king sized bed for two. He twitched his brows thinking why would Edie, his wife would ever go to this place.
A pinch of insecurity kicked in as he thought of things why she would have been there. She was supposed to be out for a girls night out at kelly's place the last Wednesday but it seemed to him that she had other things up her sleeves.
Making his mind out to ask her of all what is happening behind his back, he came out of the car and locked it.
He rang the doorbell only to be greeted by the maid. Just as he entered the house, sprudel ran towards him doing a happy dance. He bent down as he patted her back and ran his hand over her furs.
She was the best thing that ever happened to him!
"Hey baby, missed daddy?" Rey asked as sprudel licked his hand. He scratched his ear and told her he would be back soon.
He went in their room looking for Edie. The moment he entered the room, his body went stiff as he thought of confronting her.
"Hey!" she spoke as he entered the room.
"Can we have a minute?" his voice was stern and by the look on his face, none would ever dare crossing him.
"Yep! Say?"
"I got this in the car" he said handling her the receipt.
Edie opened her mouth to say something. Rey guessed another lie coming up for him and e stated, "I checked the bank account".
Her mouth went shut as she lowered her gaze.
"Who is he?" he asked.
"Does it even matter?" asked Edie.
"Who. Is. He" his voice as stern as before.
"Nick" she said as Rey took a step backward holding the table back for support.
Never had he thought that the guy she slept with would be Nick.
Nick.
HE was their band manager about 10 years back. He agreed Edie used to have a fling with him but it was before when he crushed her hard into million of pieces and he had helped her bring her life back to her.
"How long?" Rey asked fearing the worst coming for him.
"Since he and lucie broke up."
Thee vase behind on the table broke as the words registered in Rey's mind.
Nick and lucie broke up 6 years before, just a month after they returned from their honeymoon.
His life, now seem to be a big joke to Rey and he now knew - Nothing would ever be the same!
Here it ends! Have I lost my writing skills? 🤔
Anyways, reviews please!
