I looked at the message again, it read:
"I can't wait to see you tomorrow. I have missed your d**k in me"
What the hell????
I looked at Greg where he lay and something in me wanted to suffocate him with a pillow.
My heart and my soul craved revenge and I swore I'd deal with Greg.
I tiptoed and dropped his phone quietly on the nightstand. I tiptoed back to the bed and quietly lay down and drifted in thought. I kept thinking of several ways to deal with Greg, till I cried myself to sleep.
***************************
"What! You've got to be kidding me", Sophie gasped.
" So Greg is cheating on you? That is insane."
"Uhm, did you see the name or picture of the person he was cheating with?" Sophie asked with her eyebrows raised.
"No, it was an unknown number with no profile picture," I said.
"So you did not by chance see the person's name, whether during their chats or something?" She said, curiosity etched in her eyes.
I stared at her suspiciously.
"Why are you bent on knowing the person's name? Or is there something you are not telling me?" I paused and gasped.
"What?! No, no, that is silly of you to think of. Of course, I was only asking just to know if you are close to the person, nothing much" She said.
"Whatever. I don't care who the person is, I must deal with Greg. I have not come up with anything yet.
But I don't want to do something that will hurt him physically. I just want to make him realize the wrong in what he did." I said hurtfully with teary eyes.
" Well, what is a better way for a faithful wife to get revenge on her husband?" Sophie asked, looking at me.
"What?" I asked
"Cheat back on him." She said.
"What! I can't cheat on him." I said and shook my head.
" Gosh, you are so annoying. One minute you are ranting about how badly you want revenge, I gave you a great idea, and now you are rejecting it." Sophie rants, demonstrating her hands in the air.
" Cheating on him is not revenge, it will only mean I am promiscuous and that is not my aim of wanting revenge." I replied to Sophie.
The office space went silent, and after several self-thoughts, Sophie broke the silence.
"How about we go to the club this evening? You know, just to shake things off a bit. We can map out ways to deal with him while we have a couple of drinks. And you may be lucky to see some hot guys there." She winked and I pushed her playfully.
" Fine, we will go to the club this evening, but no hot guys. We'll just have a couple of drinks and that is all," I said with relief.
" Agreed, no hot guys, just drinks," Sophie said, smiling.
" I will text you the address of the club." She added.
" Thanks, Sophie. Going out will relieve me. I don't even want to see Greg's face, it disgusts me", I beamed.
" Anything for you." She said and hugged me.
*****************
7:15 PM
I got to the address of the club and went in. I did not see Sophie, so I decided to sit and wait for her. I scrolled through my phone and soon, the waiter approached me and asked for my order.
"Water will do" I said, as I adjusted my back on the chair.
He went off and came back a few minutes later with the water. I thanked him and took a few gulps.
Writer's POV
James walked into the club and looked around. His eyes met the person he was looking for and he smiled cunningly. He walked over to Kelly.
"Hi, gorgeous I'm James." He greeted
*Hi" she greeted her back and continued scanning the room for Sophie.
" Uhm, it seems you're looking for someone or something. Can I help? " James said.
" Yeah, I'm waiting for a friend. She was supposed to be here an hour ago, but she's nowhere in sight." Kelly said.
" Well, how about we have a few drinks together? I can keep you company. ." James said.
Kelly was about to hesitate, but James had already called the waiter. They both ordered red wine and the waiter gave them their order.. As they both sipped their wine.
Kelly's phone rang and she stepped outside to take the call. Stylishly, James spiked Kelly's drink and adjusted himself. He sat back and waited for Kelly.
Kelly finished with her call and went inside to join James.
"Sorry for the interruption, that was my friend." She said
"She said she's sorry she couldn't make it here due to an emergency at home." She continued.
"Oh, all right. So are you leaving now?" James asked. He prayed she'd say no.
Kelly thought for a while. She already lied to Greg that she was staying over with her friend, so she couldn't go home immediately.
"No, I will just stay here for a couple of hours and then head home."
James smiled.
Kelly began to feel dizzy and tipsy. James noticed this and rushed to her side.
"Are you okay?" He asked
Kelly held her head.
"I'm feeling a bit dizzy and lightheaded." She said weakly.
"I can get you to the nearest hotel. You can't drive home like this. " He took her hands and helped her up.
He assisted her to her car and she gave him the car key. He helped her in and drove her to a hotel.
"Can we get a room for the night please?" He said to the receptionist.
She gave James the key to a room upstairs. James helped Kelly upstairs as she staggered. He opened the door, helped her to the bed, and shut the door behind him. It didn't take long for Kelly to doze off on the bed.
James rubbed his palms in glee, set his phone camera to video recording and quickly set into action…
The Next Morning…
Kelly's POV
I woke up with a banging headache. I opened my eyes and shut it again.
"Owww." I groaned and held my head in pain. I looked around, the room looked strange. A second glance around the room was what it took me to realize I was in a hotel room. How the hell did I end up here?
Right, Sophie ditched me at the club, and… Wait a minute, how did I get here?
I grabbed my bag, searched for my phone, and unlocked it. I had eight missed calls from Greg and four text messages. I dropped my phone and rubbed my forehead.
I turned to my side and saw a note.
"I had a lot of fun with you last night. I'm looking forward to meeting you again. Cheers to more fun." The note read.
Fun? What fun?
I looked at myself and raised the sheets up.
What the hell????!
I was naked under the sheets. Did I just have s*x with a stranger or is it an imagination?
Of course someone did, if not I wouldn't be naked.
This wasn't how I wanted my revenge, at least not by having s*x with a stranger.
Gosh! Kelly what have you done?
I tried to remember how I ended up here. All I remember was having wine until I became tipsy.
I tried consoling myself to not feel sorry for coming to the club. I got up from the bed and started getting dressed. I didn't feel like someone who had s*x, or maybe it was because my drink was spiked?
I mentally swore to strangle who did this to me. I better take contraceptives as soon as possible. God forbid I get pregnant from a one-night stand.
*****************************
A Few Weeks Later
I was in the sitting room with Greg and Mira, we were watching a family show.
I still hadn't forgotten or forgiven Greg for what he did. I'm waiting to catch him red-handed. He still usually sneaks out of the room at midnight to talk to his mistress.
I still hate him and feel disgusted at his sight, but for now, I decided to play the fool.
My phone rang, It was an unknown number, so I didn't pick it up. I usually don't pick unknown numbers, unless my guts tells me to. I ignored the call and the person kept calling.
"Babe, why don't you pick your call and stop disturbing us with your ringtone." Greg said and I rolled my eyes.
I left the sitting room and went to the dining room to pick up the call.
"Hello, check your phone." A male voice sounded.
" What?" I said, confused.
My phone beeped, and I checked the message. It was a photo. I clicked the photo in anger and what I saw next changed my expression from anger to horror. My phone fell from my hand and I screamed in horror…
