Double Betrayal

Sally had done everything that she needed to do. Her emotional survival depended on it, and she had headed to New York where her life was going to begin again she had hoped.

She was wrong, so very wrong.

But could she even be mad, when she had had her own secrets?

Oscar looked at her, but she did not look at him directly.

How there could have been someone else was still beyond her, and she did not have anything else to say to him no matter how hard he looked at her. She had been with him all of the time—how could there have been time for him to be with someone else?

Was it Eliza? Because she did not know how he would have had time to be with anyone else. Unless it was someone he worked with?

She finally looked at him with dark eyes, and he watched her silent because what more could he say? Still speechless, she packed like there was a fire under her feet and kept glancing at her phone to see if her daughter had called her or texted her because she wanted to see her.

What kept Sally quiet was that instead of her daughter, she had a text, a missed call and a message from Noel.

But it was over now damn it! They just signed the divorce papers–there was nothing more for him to say.

Oscar looked like a forlorn child as he reached for her hand, and she shook it off.

She was done–a double betrayal, that was all there was between her and Oscar now. Now she would never have to tell him about Noel. She would never have to tell him about her slip when she was in California.

Noel had taken her to their favorite restaurant because they wanted to end things nicely. He took her there, ordered their favorite wine–everything her favorite.

How was she supposed to deny him when he got in the car with her, kissed her and played with her like it was his job? It had been, but it was not anymore. But he still played her, like a favorite instrument. He touched her where he had no business touching her anymore and made her so wet that she wanted more. In the front seat of the car, they fucked like they were teenagers and on his couch after that. The next morning, they made out in the park.

That was why Noel was calling her.

Sally looked at Oscar, as refused him when he offered to take her bag and walked past him.

At least she would not have to tell him what she had done…
