“A couple of weeks ago, I sent a message to a mutual friend asking to borrow a router. He didn’t answer, but no worries, he lives nearby. I’ll just stop by and grab it, I thought. I pull up to his house and start heading down the driveway. He has a long country driveway, so it’s a few seconds before I see my car (I drive a company vehicle during the day), already there. My heart began to sink, but he and my wife are friends and business partners, maybe it’s nothing. I got out of my van and looked up to see him shirtless in his bedroom.”
“At this point, my heart is down on my stomach, and I am visibly shaking. I go in and immediately head upstairs. He is alone, now clothed. I say, ‘I came to borrow the router. Have you seen my wife? The car is here.’ He then proceeds to give the worst improv I’ve ever heard. ‘Huh? No, she was here at some point, though.’ Whatever, I knew she was there, I just wanted him to admit it. I go down, take the router, and head back to the van, where I finally encounter my wife topless, trying to sneak around the side of his house. And now here I am.”
