For the next few days, while I was making my plans for Brian, I tried hard to act normal with Sandra. I didn’t entirely succeed. It’s hard to act normal with your wife when she’s been f*****g her brains out with your brother. Every now and again she’d say something like:
“You’re very quiet today. Is everything all right?”
And I would reply:
“Of course, everything’s fine,” with a touch too much cheeriness to be believed.
Then I’d get back to the serious business of planning my act of vengeance.
