"I'll send an uber to pick you up Saturday at 10am." Dr. Felix says.
"How do you suppose I get away from my husband for the whole day?" I ask through gritted teeth.
"The weekend. And that's your problem, not mine. Be to the uber on time, or he finds out what you did today." He warns me.
"What do I need to pack? What do I need to wear?" I ask him bitterly.
"Good questions finally. Hair, pigtails. Makeup, light more natural. Clothes, your best lingerie or nothing at all. To pack, only toiletries." With that he hangs up on me.
The whole weekend? Charles will never believe a last minute girls trip. He knows Kayla too well to know that every minute has to be planned. Plus, they follow each other on social media. He'd know we aren't together.
I can't claim that I have a business trip, because I have at least a weeks notice before those, and it's already Thursday.
That evening when Charlie gets home he looks upset. My heart begins to beat fast, does he know?
"Are you okay, babe?" I ask him.
"I'm okay." He lies to me.
I walk up behind him and hug him. "Do you forget that I can tell when you're lying to me?" I ask him as I kiss his neck.
"It's dumb." He tells me and tries to pull out of my hug.
"Dumb or not, I wanna hear it."
"I...the guys want to go out to Josh's cabin and I turned them down." He says and looks down.
"What? Why? And why would you be bummed to turn them down?"
"I'm bummed because it sounded fun. But, I know we have plans this weekend. That movie you wanted to see comes out. I planned a romantic weekend. But, Cyrus came in unexpectedly, and he won't be here long."
"Go, babe. We have officially rescheduled to next weekend." I tell and smile. Thank God for Cyrus.
"Really?" He beams at me.
"Really! When are they leaving?"
We get Charlie all packed up and he called off for the rest of the weekend. Cyrus and the boys picked him up.
"What?" Dr. Felix answers the phone.
"Charlie is gone. I won't need an uber." I tell him.
"Why the hell are you calling me about this? I don't fucking care." He then hangs up.
I go lay down in bed and fall asleep.
I awake to a text from Dr. Felix 'Due to your useless call, you'll be receiving a punishment as soon as you arrive. The car will now pick you up Friday at 5:30pm.'
