"When we were arguing earlier you said all we were doing was fucking."
"I didn't mean it. I was upset."
I took a deep breath. "I shouldn't be upset with you. I slept with someone else too. But I am. I don't know what you want me to say." It was hard to picture his hands on someone else.
"You're allowed to be upset with me."
"It was her, wasn't it?"
He looked up at me.
"Isabella? Your wife?"
"Yes," he sighed.
"Okay."
"Penny, I didn't go to New York with the intention of sleeping with her."
"Okay."
"It just happened."
"Okay."
"Please stop saying okay. It's not okay. And I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry, Penny."
"You don't have to explain it to me. She's your wife."
"I needed you to know."
I took a deep breath. "I need some air."
"Okay. Let's take a walk."
"I want to be alone."
