This seemed to satisfy him and our conversation moved to other subjects, although I'm not sure what we talked about because I was thinking about the strange automobile parking in my drive.This seemed to satisfy him and our conversation moved to other subjects, although I'm not sure what we talked about because I was thinking about the strange automobile parking in my drive. I revived my plans to see if Dena was having an affair. The following Monday I told Dena that my duties would require me to be out of town until Friday night. As always she seemed disappointed but accepted that it had to be. I on the other hand imagined that she was already preparing to invite her lover into our bed. I drove to a local hotel and checked in for four nights. I parked my car in the hotel's indoor lot so it couldn't be easily seen. I then called Avis and rented a completely different car making sure it was of a completely different color. I made the necessary business phone calls from my hotel room but remained in the room and out of view until darkness. Around 7pm I called home as I had always done when away. After my brief conversation with Dena I called room service for dinner and watched TV. By 9pm I had waited as long as I could. Driving the rental car past my house I was mildly disappointed to see only the normal house lights and only Dena's car in our drive. I drove around town until I made another pass by our house around 9:30pm. |
