“So,” he aimed at me, his menacing demeanor gone and replaced with sweet and innocent Scott. “Seeing anyone?”
“Ah, yeah I am.”
“He’s a lucky man.”
“You should know,” I said, angry on behalf of his new wife. She’d just given birth to his baby for fuck’s sake and he was already out prowling. “But then again you never appreciated what you had when you had it.”
He didn’t take it as an insult, rather a piece of knowledge he already knew. “True that.”
“Look, you have an appointment to get to, and I have work things to sort out.”
“A pretty woman like you shouldn’t be working,” he said. “You know, my business exploded recently. I could help you out.”
My insides were cringing. Was he seriously propositioning his ex-wife to be his mistress? Ugh, what the hell did I ever see in him?
“I actually like working, Scott. I created a business after we divorced and it’s thriving. I’m loving everything about it so I really must thank you for that.”
He seemed a little annoyed but that snake charmer smile came up on his greasy face again. “Rumor has it that you had a fling with a woman after we broke up.”
Wow, it didn’t take long did it?
“You know what, I have to say being with a woman is invigorating. I mean, with men it’s all grunt and force and fumbling like they lost the football but with women, they know exactly what spots to hit and when to hit them.”
His face had changed from excitement to surprise to annoyed in the space of ten seconds. It was mighty funny to watch.
“If I was so bad, why did you stay with me for so long?” he queried.
“Well, Scott, I didn’t know what there was out there.”
“So this woman, she was that good but it was only a fling hey?”
“No, actually, it morphed into more and I must say, I’m loving every minute of it. In fact, you know her.”
“I do?” he replied. “I don’t know any lesbians.”
“Well you do now, two of us. I see what you saw in Gen now. She’s magnificent.”
His mouth dropped and I felt a sudden surge of pride in what I had been saying to him.
“Anyway, toodles.”
I turned on my heel before he could form words and I headed home to tell Gen all about it. I’d never been so happy in my entire life.
I finally felt free.
??
Gen was waiting on the sofa when I came through the door excitedly. I put my bag down and grabbed the TV remote to mute it before I turned to her.
“Now this is going to be good,” she said, uncrossing her legs and sitting on the edge of the seat with me. “Tell me.”
“I ran into Scott.”
Her face turned from a smile to a frown instantly. “What? Why are you excited about that?”
“Because I finally stuck it to him. I finally gave him a taste of his own bullshit.”
Gen got up and started to pace around the living room. This wasn’t what I expected from her. I had hoped I could tell her and we would erupt into laughter immediately.
