Ahh! I feel so conflicted!! Nice work @cizzo! I'm still confused as to whether anyone cheated on anyone at all though.

Thank you @caleblailmusik!
I'm glad you feel conflicted, that was one of the key drivers for the story and reason to switch between their first-person viewpoints. But I can see how it can be a bit confusing. Jack definitely cheated but he did so because he thought Jane cheated first with Jerry, which she didn't. She was only planning Jack's birthday with Jerry but Jack thought they were cheating (sneaking off night after night etc.).
Huh. I guess the part that threw me off was that he never mentioned cheating on his wife, so I assumed it was a fabrication, especially since it was some woman who told his wife (and that woman didn't seem very supportive of his wife anyways).
Still a great read! Your work is always so refreshing.
The mention of it in his part is the paragraph "But I got you back. Oh yes. She awakened something in me you haven’t for years."
Thank you again for reading and the kind words :)
OOOOHHHHH. That she. I thought that was his wife, like, she was 'awakened' by her (supposed) fling and they... ya know. Okayyy. I gotchu now.
Awesome.
