“Al… can you please just hear me out for a second??” Shane looked at Alice. “I know how this looks like but its nothing like what you’re thinking right now okay.”

“No Shane, it’s exactly what it looks like…” Alice looked at Shane who is locking eyes at her.

“Alice… I know we’re still married but we’re practically separated…” Shane said, didn’t know how to handle the conversation.

“Practically separated?!? What the hell is that suppose to mean Shane…” Alice huffed.

“I know she’s my fucking wife okay?!? I know that I’m fucking married to her!!… Fuck!!” Shane let out in anger. She looked back at Alice with that eyes that would make Alice’s heart stopped.

“Shane… it’s simple okay, you just have to choose. It’s me or her…” Alice said unsympathetically. Shane looked at Alice almost can’t believe that’s it coming down to this. Shane didn’t want to choose, she didn’t even know what to think.

“Yeah… That’s what I thought… I knew I should’ve googled you… you better go back Shane, don’t wanna keep your wife waiting…” Alice said as she turns around.

“Don’t make me do this Alice… don’t make me choose…” Shane pleaded.

“Well, I’m not down with the whole open relationship thing… if that’s what you and your wifey are into… and I don’t like being and feeling like the second lady…” Alice said bitterly.

“You’re not the second lady Alice…” Shane walked up to Alice. “You are never the second lady… I’m begging you not to make me choose, because I don’t know how to choose… between the wife that I’ve been married to for almost ten years, had a child with… thought was the love of my life but cheated on me and broke my heart, god fucking knows how many times… but I still do think that maybe… maybe that I can still make this work… but then I know that two or three months from now that I’ll caught her doing coke or getting fucked by a random girl… and then she’ll just break my heart all over again….  Or… this amazing girl, standing right in front of me that has been making me realize that I’ve probably been a fool for ten years…that I am in love immensely with and that I would move heaven and earth just to see her smile at me… but she is asking me to choose to let go a decade of my life, a decade of what I lived for…just like that… and I don’t know if I can do that Alice… I have no fucking clue how to…” said Shane as her voice cracks between the words she says and holding on to single tear that’s about to run down her cheek.

“… I… I…” Alice was surprised by the load of information that just landed to her.

“Ssshhh… don’t say anything… maybe you should’ve googled me or maybe you shouldn’t of… either way, I still fucking love you Alice Pieszecki… and I am not going to let your question and my decision to stop this…” said Shane as she let go the tear that’s she been holding back.
