---- "T've never worn anything this nice. How do I look? Maybe it's wasted on me." "No. And you look great. All that matters is that you're happy with it." We went steady that day. Her boss found out and promoted Lorelei to rescue squad captain. Sure, it wasn't exactly a powerful position, but at least she didn't have to work herself to the bone anymore, and she had more time with me, too. When she got the news, she squeezed her arms around me in excitement. "I got a promotion! I'ma captain now!" We were so, so happy. And then everything changed when he showed up. When she started talking about him. It was then that I found out my wife loved someone else. Her true love, so to speak. Felix Stringer was a no-name screenwriter for a production team, and Lorelei's boss wanted to make a ---- movie about rescue squads saving victims of disasters. The production team sent their screenwriters to them. to see what their lives were like and jot down every detail. Felix was one of them, and he was assigned to Lorelei's team. Lorelei didn't like him that much in the beginning. She said, ''We got a new teammate, Jonathan. His name's Felix, and he's a guy from my hometown. "He's really annoying. The guy's nothing but deadweight." And then the complaints disappeared. "He's a funny guy, you know. Always calls mea kitten when I get mad. Oh, it's his birthday today, so I'm skipping dinner. "Jonathan, you know what Felix did?" He was starting to bleed into our lives, and he was the person my wife talked about the most. I kept telling her to put some distance between them, but she'd go ballistic every single time. ---- "Can you stop being paranoid, Jonathan? We're just friends! "If I wanted to start anything with him, I'd never have married you! How petty are you? I just went out for a bite with him! Not like we did anything!" Eventually, our conversations dwindled, and she stopped talking to me. Even on our anniversary, she was with Felix. I made a feast that night, waiting for her to come home, but she told me, "He just got to this place. Everything's new and unfamiliar to him, and he's really weak. He needs me." The same excuse again. That Felix got an injury that ravaged his body, and that he was just a scholar, so he needed more care than some brute. I thought it was normal, given that they grew up together. ---- And then that fateful day came. I went to her workplace for some exchange program and overheard her talking to her colleagues. "T'd never have been separated from Felix if he hadn't been forced to serve some program. Jonathan's my husband, but the only guy I love is Felix. "We have a long history, Felix and I. It goes back more than ten years. Jonathan has nothing on him." My energy was all taken away from me. It failed me. I couldn't believe someone could fake love. Still, this woman married me, and I had a duty to her. I picked my pieces up, hid my pain, and never talked to anyone about it.
