Grace heard the front door shut and the shuffle of A.J's feet going
across the carpeted living room towards the bedroom. She wiped her eyes and
slid off the bed. She reached her dresser just as A.J walked into the room.
" Hey.... what are you doing?" He smiled charmingly and began kissing her shoulders " Im getting dressed.... why don't you go eat your breakfast, it's getting cold." She replied without emotion. As A.J stood looking puzzled she slipped out of her slip and into some ripped flare blue jeans, a white t-shirt and her tennis shoes. She exited the room without a word and leaving him to ponder what had just happened. That night eight o'clock rolled around and A.J was heading out.
"Where are you going?" Grace asked very sternly. " Im going out to meet the guys....why?" " No reason it's just..... you went out last night to meet wi..... wait you went out at exactly eight last night too!" Her eyes began to tear as she motioned for him to go. He left and she listened to him get in his car and drive away. Tears started to flow down her cheeks uncontrollably, she had just sent her husband to the arms of another woman. Was she crazy? What should she do? Who was this girl? So many questions raced through her head all at once. But she simply settled for a bubble bath and an early bed time.
For four days everything about A.J annoyed Grace. She couldn't stand the way he chewed with his mouth open sometimes, or the way he would rub his stomach when he was hungry, the way he rubbed his head and scratched his chin when he was thinking.... everything was so annoying that she couldn't take it. She couldn't take his habits or the fact that she didn't know who her husband was sneaking off to see four times a week. So one day she decided to get some advice. She visited her best friend Angela who only lived one mile away.
"Angie can I ask you a question?" Grace asked as she took a seat on the suede coach " What's that dollface?" Angela was busying herself with cooking a large meal for her large family " What would you do if you found out Eddy was cheating on you? I mean would you try and find out who he's with..... or what?" Angela looked up her mouth slightly open at the fact that her bestfriend was being two timed. " Truthfully? Well I'd find out who the girl was and confront him as I dragged her by the hair into the house. Then I'd kick both of their asses and kick his no good, lying, two timing butt out!" Angela slammed her wooden spoon on her counter and took a seat next to Grace who was now trying to hide her tears by laughing. "Gracey...... don't let that scum make you cry" Angela kissed Grace's forehead and hugged her as she bawled for fifteen minutes. " Hey Angie...." Grace wiped her eyes and looked adoringly up at Angela " Thanks , I think I know what I'll do....yeah yeah I've got it!" Grace jumped up and bounded for the door.
