I turned away, hailing a cab to visit grandma's grave alone. Though it had only been a few days, it felt like a lifetime had passed.
Grandma's smiling face beamed from the photo on her tombstone, reminding me of the last time I'd seen her before my trip, "When you're back for Winter Solstice, grandma will make your favorite roasted turkey!"
Grandma, I was wrong. I shouldn't have trusted Josh or entrusted you to him …
After leaving the cemetery, I remembered there was a deposit from grandma's hospital stay that needed to be settled. On the way home, I stopped by the hospital.
Walking past the obstetrics department with the receipt in hand, I bumped into Josh's secretary, Tatiana Marley.
She blocked my way, brandishing a medical report and smirking at me, "Natalie, why bother pretending you don't know me? That night, I saw you hiding by the fire escape, watching your husband get intimate with another woman. How did it feel?"
She continued, "That night, as soon as you fell asleep, he couldn't wait to have me. We even used your couch, do you know how many positions we unlocked on it? How long has it been since you two were together?"
