    ... with Mark for a whole night. Even Ann joined in. We never thought he would ask one of us out."
    
    "Liar! You bitches knew that asshole was going to be at the club tonight. That's premeditated adultery. We need to talk about the divorce. I owned the house a year before we got married, so you're out. As for our two kids, I want..." I growled.
    
    "No! No! No! Please, I get it now! I'm so sorry! You think...I did bad," she yelled as she crawled to me and wrapped her arms around my legs. She sobbed and babbled, "I was only going dance with him...I don't want a divorce...not leave with him...I love you...want only you...please don't divorce me...I'm very sorry...when Mark picked me I wanted to rub it in my friends' faces...I would never leave...I could brag about dancing with a celebrity...Dance only...no sex...you're my husband...I love you...please don't do this I beg you!"
    
    Did my normally obtuse wife have an epiphany? It was hard to say.
    
    Epilogue: Our 20th Wedding Anniversary
    
    Linda and I danced to the slow music. Yes, we're still together. Why did I stay? The primary consideration were the children. A broken home usually means broken children. The proof is in the children. My oldest Ellie has earned academic and field hockey athletic scholarships and, in the fall, she will be moving across town to attend uni. My son Noah is a star in football and basketball. Plus, he's Junior class president and on the honor roll. Then there is my 4-year old daughter Grace. Yes, we ...
    ... had another child. She was conceived the week after the club incident. She is a shy smart girl who prefers books over sports. We have started her in recreational gymnastics since we prefer well-rounded children. Why the name Grace? That leads to my second reason for not divorcing Linda.
    
    A person can receive grace and can pass that grace to someone else in need of it. Linda did me, our kids, and her parents wrong. While sitting and crying on the floor, she finally comprehended what she did was wrong. She apologized and asked for forgiveness. I had the power to do it, and I gave her that forgiveness.
    
    Of course, there had to be legal protections against a future fidelity problem. We signed a post-nuptial which had heavy penalties for cheating. For the first year, I spot checked her phone records every few weeks. I got her a new cell phone with a new number. I didn't allow her to transfer her contacts to it. Linda never remembered phone numbers so that guaranteed no more contact with that immoral bitch Dee and her fellow witches.
    
    Dave and I are better friends now. He did save me by recovering my knife from under the table. He and Dee divorced months later. He's got a new wife now. She's sweet, wholesome, and eight years younger.
    
    Will we make it to our 25th Anniversary? I say we have a 90% chance so far.
    
    What happened to Marky? 14 months later, he, his gang, and his chosen married woman for the night were leaving a night club in New York when someone opened fire on ...
