Knowing I got to spend time with my best friend once I got home made me excited

"What's everyone doing when we get back?" Zak asked.

"I'll probably go golfing." Billy said.

"The fiancée and I are doing a movie marathon." Aaron said.

"I'm just relaxing and hanging out," I said. "what about you?"

"Well, I'm probably going to have to fix my fucking marriage...again. It's bullshit. Flying under the radar with other women was so good and now I have to be all faithful and shit. I'm assuming that I will come home to an empty house and I'll have to fake an apology. It's been the same thing for the past 7 years. I hate it." Zak said.

"If you like being with so many other women so much, why'd you even get married?" I asked.

"I honestly don't know. It was a waste. I thought I was ready to commit and have children and be a family man. Turns out that I hate that lifestyle after all." He said.

"What about Ev and the kids though?" Aaron asked.

"I love my kids. I do. I just think that Evelyn deserves someone who actually wants to be a Dad and husband. I tried so hard to be the husband she wanted but my playboy ways never died." He said.

"So what's next?" Billy asked.

"A divorce. It's nothing Evelyn did. I love her and always will, I just can't commit like she deserves. Obviously I will get joint custody of my kids but I'm not slowing down when it comes to women. It's an addicting game." He said.

When I got home, I threw my shit down. I jumped in the shower and got ready. I put on my cologne that Ev always tried to get Zak to wear and drove to get takeout. I couldn't get to Evelyn fast enough.
