Afra had been fuming for the past twenty minutes as she waited for her cheating husband to walk through the door. She couldnt believe that someone she called her best friend had been snooping behind her back all of this time. 

She had knew that something had been going on between Jaeson and Rochelle for a minute. It was a woman instinct to know that any woman that had been acting head-over-heels for their man, he had already slept with her. And that's what Afra though-- Rochelle had been sleeping with her man.

Should I leave him? Just pack my bags and go?

Afra was leaning against the kitchen island as she thought of what she should do. Yes, her husband had been cheating, but she didnt want to make it seem like infidelity was easy to get over. She wasnt going to let him fall back into her arms like butter too fast. Afra needed a plan and fast.

Just as she thought of a plan, Jaeson had walked through the kitchen door from the garage. 

"Babe. I came as soon as you called. Are you alright?" he asked as he took his jacket off, laying it on the coat rack by the kitchen door.

Afra stayed silent, very silent. All she wanted to do was hit Jaeson in the face repeatedly as she released all of her frustration out on him. When Afra said nothing, Jaeson began to massage her shoulder with his firm hands.

"Afra? Is everything alright? You're not speaking to me."

Are you kidding me? How can you sit here so calmly in front of my face?

"I found this!" Afra yelled as she showed the transactions of his little getaways on her phone, "That's why I'm not speaking. What is this, Jae?"

Jaeson's eye grew big and he stopped massaging Afra's shoulders. As a backed against the kitchen counter, he thought of words to explain why his wife found what she found.

"Afra, I--"

"I, what?! You've been sleeping with Rochelle for how long?" Afra yelled as she slammed her iPhone on the kitchen counter, not caring if the screen shattered.

Jaseson rubbed his hands down his face as he confessed, "It's not what you think, baby! I can explain!"

"Explain what!? How you've been sleeping with our surrogate mother behind our back!" Afra cried in pain was she did a two-piece into Jaeson's chest. 

Jaeson had took every hit that Afra made. He was getting upset from Afra's blows, but he never believed in hitting woman, so he just took every blow. 

"It started the day I called you about Rochelle breaking into my office."

"What?" Afra's face cringed in confusion as she found that was not the answer to all of her questions. She hated when her husband only answered one of her curious questions and left her hanging with the rest answered. 

"You asked how long I've been sleeping with her and I gave you an answer." said Jaeson as he lifted his hands above his shoulders in an 'I dont know' motion. 

Afra took a few more blows at Jaeson's chest. She couldnt believe that Jaeson had been sleeping with Rochelle since they picked her as their surrogate mother and the day she bombarded in his office had left out the details. She had remembered every detail he had told her.

"She did WHAT!?" Afra yelled with her office phone to her ear while sitting at her desk. She did not believe what she just heard.

"I'm serious, babe. She came into my office somehow without a key. She was sitting in my office on the couch, in the dark at that." Jaeson confessed calmly as he could. He knew that at this point Afra was at her breaking point. The only woman that was allowed in his office was his secretary, Lisa and his very own wife.
