Ted’s confidence lasted about as long as the ice in his Sangria. Sally watched his eyes flit from one woman to another; a little blonde by the wall, the brunette, another blonde by the kitchen. She watched his tongue slip out just a fraction over his lips. Stood by the doorway, she couldn’t miss the tiny beads of sweat on his forehead or the dark patch of dampness spreading across his chest.
“Shall I introduce you to my husband ladies?” she said scornfully,
Ted swallowed.
“Or should I say OUR husband”
Their eyes met. Sally smiled. Ted’s legs gave way.
Awesome. This is my kind of girl. Get them all in the room together and let him have his karma. Hah! Well done.
Karma’s a bitch, lol 🙂
Very good, Helen.
PS hope you’re safe weather wise your way
Thanks Richard. As for the weather, the wind is intense, snow blizzard last night and 80 mph winds tonight. At least we’re fairing better than down south 😦
True. I feel sorry for the south west.
Brilliant as always! Oh Ted, you deserved that 😀
Thank you 🙂
this is priceless. absolutely priceless. this reminded me of a memory and a thought – my ex would always check out any and all women – he thought I was totally oblivious, that he was some sort of slyyyy dog – NO – i saw it all of the time.
Down with slyyyy dogs, lol 😉
Very funny! 😀
I love your description of his growing unease…his ego drowning in sweat 🙂
Most definitely, 😉
Um, you know that’s illegal outside of Utah, darling! Delicious tale — the sheer terror Ted faces at the end there is priceless.
Never fool a woman 😉
Ha.. I wonder what’s in his drink… sounds like there will be quite some party,.
He’ll have one hell of a headache anyway 😉
Love it. Think he might have his comeuppance coming to him! Beautifully written. x
Thank you 🙂
Sounds like he has his work cut out for him. Hope he has some blue pills. Nicely done.
haha good one! i like Sally. 🙂
Sounds like a nice get-together – confronted by his past. Well done. (Stood or standing?)
Oh, Ted…
The men I know would say “What a way to go!”
Good description of a man in trouble and a woman getting revenge. He knows he’s in for a rough time.
Oh my!What a three or is it four timing bastard!Great way to take revenge!Wonder what will happen next? :-)Good one!
Love that Sally’s got game! Well done Helen; really draws us into the story. The final sentence in the first paragraph seems to be off by a word? “Stood by the doorway,” should that be Standing? Otherwise, I got a little confused there.
There could be trouble ahead….
Perfect one!
Dear Helen,
Great minds think alike. This could be chapter 2 to my story I think. A good week for revenge of the wives. 😉 Nicely done.
shalom,
Rochelle
Oops, look like Ted’s been rumbled. Since his legs have already given way I think he should just stay down and pretend to be unconscious.
Reminds me of the movie by the same name, or almost. Loved it! And love your literary rendition!
Hahaha! THAT’LL teach him! Fun stuff, Helen.
Haha well he got his! Nice!
Delicious revenge! Wonderful! Nan
Nice!
Deliciously evil lol revenge is best served righteously then 🙂 well done
Revenge is sweet!
Wowzer!
Pulling that off must feel pretty amazing! I enjoyed this piece.
