    ... you Nancy. I betrayed my vows to you." Looking at our children, "I've always held you to a high standard of integrity. I'm sorry that I didn't do that for myself."

Janet starts, "Tell us what happened. We're adults." She glances at me and her father. We both nod yes.

It appeared that while gassing up his work car by the highway a few weeks ago, he caught sight of Barb's husband John enter the Marriott with a woman. Shocked, Ron parked nearby and used his cell phone camera to document that John was cheating.

"I called Barb the next day and asked her to meet me at an out of the way place and shared what I found. That's when I found out that their marriage has been on shaky ground for a while and..."

I butted in "So you can put your own marriage on shaky ground!..." My son gives me a 'shush', and I defiantly go quiet under his glare.

"Barb and I kept talking for weeks. I was the only one in town besides the lawyer where she could vent."

I just glared at him and that's when he looked directly at me. "That time listening to her caused me to re-evaluate my own marriage and what the future was looking like." Suddenly I felt a bone chilling breeze and stayed quiet. "Nancy, I think that it is time for us to part ways."

Janet jumped in again. "Tom and I get to ask some questions now." Both John and I nodded yes.

"Dad, what is your relationship with Barb? Do you love her?"

"No, she just was someone who was ...
    ... hurting, but would listen to me. Neither of our spouses really wanted to be married..."

"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?" Janet and Tom looked at me but Tom spoke first. "When was the last time you asked dad what he thought? When was the last time you asked anybody in this family what they thought?" It became very quiet. "Keep thinking, but I'll give you a great example. Remember before COVID and we all went to Florida together? The three of us are Harry Potter fans. There wasn't any way in hell you were going to allow anyone to go to that park? Remember? The more we questioned, the more angry you became. We just fuckin' gave up. Remember that? Want more examples? Dad could supply years worth." I cringed, but somehow I knew that it was now do or die for this marriage and family.

I cried for the next hour while listening how I controlled people and things. It was not a family or a marriage. I was the queen that must be obeyed. All I did now was nod in agreement and hung my head.

As the three of them became quiet, I finally spoke. "I'm so sorry for what I did to you all. I don't know if this marriage or family can be salvaged." I looked at them. "Is there any hope for us?" Looking at Ron, "Would you please stay and try to work things out?"

Ron smiled. "Do you know that that's the first time you said please in years? I'll pick the counselor, not you."

"I promise to work hard. I'll even throw in the food dye remover?"
