Randy heard pounding on his hotel room door. He got up and answered it. When he did Paul punched him in the face and he fell backwards.

"You stay the fuck away from my wife!" He yelled.

"I guess she told you." Paul walked away.

Two days later Randy had just gotten home.

"Hi honey." Samantha said coming up to him. "What happened to your face Randy?" She said noticing a black eye.

"I got punched in the face." "Let's sit down we have to talk." They sat down on the couch.

"Randy, what's wrong?"

"What I have to tell you could really affect thinks between you and me."

"What's going on?"

"Before we met, I started have an affair with my boss."

"Stephanie?"

"Yeah."

"It was still kind of going on when we met." "I slept with her again before we decided to make things official." "Ever since she was born, I've suspected that her daughter Murphy was mine." "We did a DNA test and two days ago I found out she's mine."

"Have you slept with Stephanie since we've been together?"

"No, I swear."

"Do you love her?"

"I'll be honest, I did." "Not anymore." "I love you." "I want to be with you."

"I have to go."

"Samantha." She got up grabbed her keys and left.

Paul hadn't spoken to Stephanie since she told him. He'd help with the girls but that's all. It was night time. Stephanie was loading the dishes in the dishwasher. Paul came into the kitchen.

"Is it over with Randy?" Paul asked.

"Yes." "It has been for a long time now."

"Why did you do it?"

"When we were have problems he was showing me attention and friendship." "It just happened."

"Why did it keep going when we started getting along again?"

"I had feelings for him."

"Do you still?"

"No."

"Do you still love me?"

"Yes." "I'm sorry." "I never wanted to hurt you."

"I forgive you."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

She hugged him. "Thank you." They kissed.
