Cheating

You never thought it would happen, but here you are after years of marriage, waiting quietly at a dark table in the corner of a hotel bar to meet someone you'd connected with online. Someone who, if things went well, you would be having sex with later tonight.

You take a shot of tequila and breath deeply. It burns, but you barely feel it. You are a mixture of emotions. Nervous. Scared. Ashamed. None of them seems quite right.

You love your wife. You have never questioned that, although you know she wouldnt understand where you are and what you are about to do. She had become totally uninterested in sex. The best you can recall, more than six months had passed since the last time the two of you made love. And she doesn't seem to understand why that bothers you...

Someone clears their throat nearby and you look up.
