Vicky's: The Other Man

Chapter 5- The Change

I woke up early and I saw roses and my favorite wine. I got out of the bed and saw this note. It said "Baby, my sweet Vicky. I'm so sorry. You've been such a good wife and I know I've treated you badly. So come down to the kitchen I have something for you. Love, Lenny" I was so shocked. He made me smile. I made my way to the kitchen and he cooked. We kissed and then began to eat. It was so amazing. A bit to good to be true. Now I feel guilty about sleeping with Khalid. It was time to go to work. I was just hoping Khalid won't seduce me again. His sex is amazing, but I can't do this to Lenny. I got in my office Khalid was sitting on my desk smiling with those brown dashing eyes. He walked over to me and kissed me. I pushed him off and explained what's going on and why I can't continue this. He said "but Vicky I love you. I was going to take you to Arabia. We can have some time alone. I understand though. I won't intrude in your marriage. I'll just keep it professional. Sorry." I got so sad. He just walked out. I saw in his eyes that he wanted to cry. This is stressful. I love him, but I'm married. Why can this cheating thing not exist?
I had to give Khalid a file, I felt weird walking in his office. He started to talk to me like the others. Not in a bad way, but strict. I thought to myself "does he hate me now?" I honestly don't need him to. I'm in love with Khalid, but married to Lenny. This is very hard on a woman. Lenny is actually changing why does he have to change when I'm in love with Khalid? It's sweet, but I want Khalid.
Later that day I called Khalid and he rushed me off the phone. This made me sad. "Oh shit!" I said out loud. I forgot I was suppose to meet my mother for coffee after work. So I made my way there. When arrived I saw my sister Kiki she told me she drove all the way from Georgia just to see me. I gave her the world's biggest hug. I missed her so much. She's my favorite. She's not someone to mess with. She's heartless at times. Kiki and Liz never got along. That is why she didn't bother to come to the funeral. Kiki is on the wild side. She parties hard. She follows the hippie trend. It's so cute. We talked all day. When we arrived to my house and saw Lenny, she said something so insulting. She hates Lenny. Kiki is so funny. When Lenny went out to do something for his brother, I told Kiki all about Khalid. I began to cry. She just knows how to comfort me. I called Khalid again and he answered and said "yes?" I got nervous. I asked "why are being like that? Khalid please just understand me." He told me that he doesn't want to build more feelings for me because of Lenny and I'm married why should I care. I cried on the phone. He told me to stop and that he's tired. Before I even got to tell him I love him, he hung up. I talked to him before Kiki came I quickly dried my face. Kiki told me she needs ride so she can go to the hotel. She was tired. I called Lenny and told him where I was going. Surprisingly his voice made me smile again like in school.
We got to the hotel, I hugged Kiki I was s glad to spend time with her. I saw Khalid with this beautiful lady. I got furious. I jumped out of the car and asked him who the hell is she in an angry way. He said it was his mother and I felt terrible and embarrassed. I was so speechless and all I did was walk away in tears. I didn't even go to work for three days. On the third da, Khalid called asking why I wasn't to work. I said "I just didn't want you to see me." All he did was laugh and told me to bring my ass or I'm fired. I don't know why he's talking to me this way. It hurts me, but he's hurt too.
