"Excuse me?"

"I'm sorry, I'm Jonathan."

"Hi, I'm Chris."

Chris stuck his free hand out, adjusting Carter in his other arm. Jonathan shook his hand and smiled at the little boy. Carter smiled at the man, loving to be around anyone. Stephanie couldn't believe that this was happening, she knew that Jessica was a bold-faced liar.

"Yeah, I think Jessica's mentioned you before, ex-boyfriend right?"

"Yeah, long, long time ago," Chris said, "Oh, I'm sorry, let me introduce you to my wife, this is Stephanie."

"Hi, it's very nice to meet you," she said, shaking his hand, "Very, very nice to meet you."

Stephanie wanted to laugh out loud. This was just getting better and better, she knew that Jessica was lying. And she was glad the little bitch was now caught. Now she and Chris could move on together.

"Thanks, I was wondering if Jessica was here?"

"Actually yeah, she is, can we ask why you're here?" Stephanie said.

"Yeah, I'm sorry, I was in such a rush I didn't even say anything as to why I'm here."

"That's ok, we're actually shocked to see you, Jessica didn't mention a husband," Chris said.

"Yeah, that doesn't surprise me," he scoffed, "We've actually been having some problems and we recently separated."

"Oh," Stephanie said, not saying what she really wanted to.

"If you've been with Jessi a while, you notice she starts to get...difficult," he said, trying to be nice.

"Trust me, we've figured that out already," Chris said, "You know she didn't used to be that way."

"I know, we've been together for about four years."

Chris thought back to four years ago. He realized he was with Jessica four years ago. He couldn't believe it, this was the guy, this was probably the guy that Jessica had cheated on him with. After all these years, he was finally face to face with him.

"Four years, you said?" Chris asked.

"Yeah."

"Wow, it's finally nice to meet you," Chris said.

"What do you mean?" Jonathan asked, confused.

"Well, I was with Jessica four years ago."

"Huh?"

"Yeah, we were together, and she told me she cheated on me, and she left."

"Wow," Jonathan said in shock, "I think I need to sit down."

"I think we should all sit down," Stephanie said, "Here, there's a bench on the porch."

The three of them walked over to the bench situated on the side of the porch. Chris and Stephanie sat on one side and Stephanie took Carter into her arms, seeing Chris was in a state of shock, much like the man they had just met. Jonathan sat down on the other end and ran his hands through his hair.

"I never knew man," Jonathan said, "She told me she was single."

"It's ok."

"No," he answered, looking up, "It's not ok. I owe you an apology. If I had known she was with someone I would never have gotten with her."

"It's really fine, I met my wife after Jessica left me and it was for the better."

"I guess I just feel badly."

"So how long have you and her been married?" Stephanie asked.

"We've been married for almost three years."

"Wow, I didn't know someone could stand to be with her that long," Stephanie blurted out, then covered her mouth in embarrassment.

Jonathan laughed, "It's ok, I know what you mean, that's why we separated, Jessica really doesn't care about anyone but Jessica."

"Ain't that the truth," Stephanie said.

"Yeah, I mean, we got married, and then we found out she was pregnant and she ran off."

"When was this?" Chris asked, furrowing his brow.

"About a year and a half ago," he answered.

Suddenly everything became clear to Chris and Stephanie. Jessica had run away from her husband, while pregnant, and run to Chris. Chris then had gotten back together with her, not thinking that she was married and then he had fallen in love with Jessica.

"Oh wow, then I owe you an apology," Chris said.

"Why?"

"Jessica ran here, telling me she had missed me and that she wanted to get back together. I had no idea whatsoever that she was married so I got back together with her. I really didn't know. Eventually I found that I loved this woman," Chris said, smiling at Stephanie, "And I dumped Jessica, but I had no idea she was married."

"Wow, I can't believe this is the woman I married," Jonathan said, shaking his head, "I really thought she was a class act when I married her."

"Well, I thought her intentions were pure when she came back here."

"Yeah, she said she didn't want my kids and she ran off. I had no idea where she was and it tore me up inside that she had left me, and I might not get to know my baby."

"I'm sure it was hard," Chris said, "I've been through the same thing with her."

"Yeah, I guess you have," Jonathan chuckled humorlessly.

Stephanie had never realized how much of a horrible person Jessica was until she heard this poor man's tale. It seemed that all Jessica did was break people's hearts, and she took delight in it. Stephanie actually felt sorry for Jessica, she was such a sad, pathetic person. She took Chris's hand in hers and gave it a squeeze, letting her know she was there for him.

"And I assume she came back?" Stephanie interjected.

"Yeah, she had been gone for a couple months, then all of sudden, she comes back home and wants us to be together again. Being the fool that I am, I took her back."

"Hey man, don't knock yourself," Chris said, "We seem to have a lot in common, I took her back too, against my better judgment."

"Yeah, exactly, this was against my better judgment. I really shouldn't have let her back into my life, but she was having my kid."

"So then what happened?" Stephanie asked.

"Well, I thought we were happy. But after Adri was born, she started becoming worse and worse. When she was pregnant and right after Adri was born, she was so great, I knew why I loved her. But then she turned into a complete bitch. And I knew I had to get out of the situation, so I told her I was leaving. And I took Adri with me."

"You took your daughter?"

"Jessica isn't best mother on the planet."

"So I've seen," Chris said.

"Yeah, so I didn't want her to neglect Adri while I was gone, so I took her with me. Jessica didn't seem to care either way. I have a feeling she was cheating on me or something. So then one day, she came by to see Adri and I left the room for a moment and she took off."

"Are you saying she kidnapped your daughter?" Stephanie asked in alarm.

"I don't want to think of it like that," Jonathan said, "But if we have to, I guess she did. I don't know why she took Adri, and I just want my little girl back."

"Well, Jessica came here about a week and half ago, claiming that Adriana was my daughter," Chris explained.

"She what!?!"

"Yeah, she kept saying that Chris was the father and that we would have to deal with her being Chris's daughter and that she wanted to move in with us because of her daughter."

"Damn it," he muttered, "I knew she was low, but I didn't realize she was this low."

"I didn't think she was mine though," Chris said, "I just didn't get that feeling."

"I'm so sorry," he said.

"You have nothing to be sorry about," Stephanie said, "If anyone has anything to be sorry about it's her."

"Yeah, but she's my wife, and I've put this incredible burden on you guys and I just feel terrible about that."

"Don't worry about," Chris said.

"Yeah, you seem like a nice guy, we don't begrudge you for trying to find your daughter."

"I just want my little girl, I haven't seen her in a week and it's been tearing me apart."

"I know, it's hard to be without your kid," Chris said.

Stephanie blushed slightly and looked down, embarrassed. She hated the fact that she and Jessica had done the same thing. She didn't want to hurt Chris like Jessica had hurt her husband.

Chris looked over at Stephanie and saw the expression on her face. He leaned over and kissed her softly then he tucked some of her hair. She looked up at him and gave him a small smile. He leaned in close to her.

"You'll never be like her, don't worry," he whispered.

She smiled, "I love you."

"Likewise."

"Jonathan, you're welcome to come inside and get Adriana and Jessica if you want."

"Thanks I'd really appreciate it."

Suddenly the door opened and the person in question walked out from the inside. Jessica turned to look for Chris and Stephanie and opened her mouth to speak. Then she saw here husband and her mouth closed. She looked stricken as she saw who was sitting there.

She tried to speak but couldn't find any words to speak. Stephanie smirked at her, giving her a smug look that she knew would normally drive Jessica up the wall, but Jessica was in too deep to really care. It was so good to see Jessica getting her just desserts.

"What's that Jessica, I don't see you saying anything," Stephanie said.

Jessica looked at her, not knowing what to say. Jonathan stood up and looked at her. Her eyes widened, still standing there in shock. Chris felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders and he realized, once and for all, Jessica was out of their lives. What a good day this was turning out to be. Not only was Stephanie home, but Jessica was about to get out of their home. Chris turned to Jessica.

"So Jessica, what do you have to say for yourself?"
