>>62049698Nerissa had just finished a long and tiring day at work. She was looking forward to coming home, curling up with a book, and relaxing with her husband, Shiori. Their relationship was unique, built on trust and love. However, when she walked through the door, her world turned upside down.
As she entered their cozy apartment, she heard voices from the bedroom. It was Fauna, her coworker. Pushing open the door, she found Shiori and Fauna on their bed, their clothes scattered about. Her heart sank.
"Shiori, I can explain," he stammered, covering their nakedness with a blanket.
Tears welled up in Nerissa's eyes. "Explain what, Shiori? How could you betray me like this, with Fauna?"
Shiori's face turned red with shame, and Fauna looked down guiltily. "I never wanted to hurt you," Shiori whispered.
Nerissa shook her head in disbelief. "You were the one person I trusted more than anyone else in the world."
Fauna finally found her voice. "I'm so sorry. It was a terrible mistake."
Nerissa left the room, needing time to process the heart-wrenching betrayal. She collapsed onto the couch in the living room, her heart heavy with pain and confusion, uncertain about the future of her once-trusted relationship.
