My employer's wife

Chapters Thirty

Cynthia came like she promised few minutes later. I left the girls in the hands of their dad. Going away for a few days felt like a sensible thing to do. I didn't want to worry my girls or hurt them.
Cynthia has no idea why I called her to pick me up and she hasn't ask any questions about why I will be crashing with her in her place for a while yet, she didn't complain. She knew something was up but hasn't brought it up.
We were driving slowly listening to the song that's playing In the car. "You wanna grab some coffee and food? I nodded knowing the last thing that have come in contact with my stomach is Alcohol
We went to the hotel she lives in after grabbing some breakfast.
"I have a bottle of tequila, you wanna drink with me and tell me what's wrong" Cynthia asked. I nodded and she went to bring it. She came back with a bottle of tequila and glasses.
We sat on the sofa drinking silently "so whats up with you?"
Taking a long breath, I didn't know how to start. Tell her I slept with Lizzie then fell in love but can't have her so I let her go and started drinking instead until I snapped at my girls and was sent away by my husband.
"You can tell me anything you know that right?". I nodded knowing she's right. Cynthia has been there for me my whole life. She's someone I can open up to without being judge by her
"I cheated on John" I blurted out. She bust out laughing thinking I was joking. She looked at me before realizing that I wasn't
"Oh my god! That wasn't a joke?" I nodded.
With who? She asked not having the faintest idea who
I took a while trying to picture how her face will be "Lizzie!".
"Lizzie the girls nanny or another Lizzie I don't know?"
I rolled my eyes knowing she was trying to make fun of me "lizzie the girls nanny.... Not anymore she left"
Oh and that's why you are a mess cause you fell in love with her instead". She stated already knowing where all these are headed
I nodded "I know It was wrong, I feel so terrible"
Does John know? She asked. I have no idea what John thinks or not.
Does she feel the same" I nodded taking a shot of tequila
So what's wrong? She asked like she doesn't have any idea what is wrong
I brought my hands up showing her my wedding ring "I'm married remember?"
"To someone you doesn't love"
With the kids, you know how painful it is to see your kids being separated from their Mom or Dad, and I can't take a chance of not seeing my girls
You can take custody of them" she says like it a simple thing to do
And what about their dad huh, I will be a terrible mother doing that to my girls.... My parents were dicks, they can't even stand each other but they stayed together
She scoffed rolling her eyes "You dad is rich and the woman is greedy, she wouldn't want to leave all the wealth to your father and your father needs to guide his reputation, don't tell me you think they are still together except from what I just said
I know it was true, they were living in a loveless marriage knowing they can't leave without each other. They are like married with benefits
Hey! come here she took my hands staring into me "you deserve some happiness at least once, I saw how much you dedicated your time to see that she had the best birthday ever, I never see you care so much about someone except your kids
I was now sobbing, I think every little thing these days gets me to cry. ''Do you want to end up like your parents?, You guys don't even love each other and I know the girls wouldn't want their momma to sacrifice her happiness for them
I smiled weakly knowing how lucky I am to have someone like her
She cocked her eyebrows smirking at me
"What?"
How was the sex? She asked laughing hardly.
Hey! I'm not telling you that"
I just want to know, that's the least you can do after all" she says
It was..... good I say
Good, just good? She asked not even slightly pleased about the brief explanation "Come on tell me more" she persuaded
Fine, It was awesome and she's so fucking amazing especially with her tongue, she does this to me that.... I stopped knowing I was saying more than I should
That.... She tried to make me continue but I didn't "Oh my! My friend is really in love" she says. I smacked at her laughing
Why don't you call her and suggest a meet up" she says
I will, maybe tomorrow I say smiling.
Talking with Cynthia made me feel like me or maybe talking about lizzie with someone special to me. I thought about it and decides to heed her advice. We stayed like that drinking and chatting until there was nothing more to drink.
