Someone Else's Evening Routine
334 Words
He knew as soon as he stepped through the door something was different.
The apartment smelled strongly of cleaner again, but not as strong as it did before when she was gone.
He struggled to keep his temper under control and not punch a hole through the wall.
He stalked through the small space to make sure. It didn’t take long for his suspicions to be confirmed. Her bed was nicely made, there was no sign of the space being currently lived in. He dug through her drawers and found that some of her clothes were gone, as were also some of her toiletries.
Not finding any clues to the reason to her absence, he growled in anger and went to storm back through the apartment. He stopped when his eyes caught a calendar on the fridge.
There marked in her handwriting for the recent few days, was a surgery notation and then men’s names on different days.
He saw red all over again.
That f*****g slut.
She was sleeping with different men on rotation. He didn’t care what her surgery was for. In fact, he wouldn’t be surprised if it had to do with sleeping around with multiple men.
He decided it was time to start making plans to forcibly bring her back. She was too dumb to realize it and come back to him on her own. And now he was going to have to punish her for her insubordination and infidelity.
He looked at the calendar again memorizing the details.
Then he abruptly turned and left the apartment. Locking it behind him, he was already thinking of what details he’d need to take care of to set his plan in motion.
He was going to bring her back.
And he was going to make her pay.
He’s going to make sure that she regretted ever leaving him and that she’ll never think about leaving his side, again.
