After making a stop at Matthews to walk the dog, I am on my way home to my couch. I arrive to find a mysterious car parked in the driveway. When I enter, I see that my wife is home and the bedroom door is closed. I knock on it and recover no answer, but I can hear the sounds of shuffling going on inside. I want to enter, but my fear is that Matthew might be in there and I wouldn't want to upset him.
I make my way to the couch and get undressed for bed. As I lay down and close my eyes, I am interrupted by the sound of the bedroom door closing and footsteps coming down the stairs. My heart starts beating fast as my anticipation of seeing Matthew, perhaps even naked, coming my way.
I look over to see a stranger, dressed in a business suit, coming down the stairs. My wife is following and looks toward me as they make their way to the door. A short kiss and the man is out the door. My wife breathes a sigh of relief and heads back upstairs. I know that what I have just seen is something horrifying that most men would not be able to take. A part of me wants to scream and rage, but once again though, my affection towards Matthew is so strong that I truly only want him to be happy. I realize that, as much as I had once been jealous of or hated him, I am now completely in love with him. Every aspect of my being is falling subject to his will. Watching my wife fuck another man for money, only to give all of that money to Matthew, made me happy. I fell asleep thinking about him, and in my dreams I was treated to the sight of his beautiful body.
In the morning I am back at it, on my way to Matthews to take care of the dog. Once again, an empty house. I wonder what gorgeous woman Matthew had spent the night with. When I am done I am off to work.
I arrive to Ashley's bitter greeting at the gate, once again mocking me and laughing as I drive in. As I arrive in my office, I get the call from the bank telling me that all of my credit cards are maxed out. I shudder at the thought of how quickly Matthew had gone through my credit limit.
"What would happen if he got a hold of my retirement savings?" I think as I sit at my desk. Workers arrive and I set them upon their tasks for the day. At 4:30 in the afternoon, I get the text.
