I interrupted. “Did Jonathan have any kids with her?”

She shook her head. “Nah.”

“Oh okay.”

She continued. “Anyways, everything was great or so I thought. About ten months ago I noticed that Jonathan had started becoming very chummy with one of his co-workers. He worked at the Toyota dealership over on Piedmont Dr. Him and this little skinny white chic name Elizabeth were going out for lunch together, texting and calling each other after work. When I told him that I wasn’t feeling how close the two of them had become, he told me that I was over-reacting and that the two of them were just friends. I told him that I didn’t give a damn how good of friends they were she didn’t need to be calling and texting him. For months we argued about this friendship that I felt like had to be something more because of how determined he was to continue the phone calls and texting, let’s not forget the lunch dates. I felt like he was totally disregarding my feelings. He swore it wasn’t like that. He claimed that the reason why he continued doing what I had asked him not to do was because I was acting as if I didn’t trust him.” She paused and looked away. I couldn’t quite tell what she was looking at. She looked to have a blank stare in her eyes. Then I saw the tears in them. “Needless to say our happy marriage wasn’t so happy anymore. We were constantly arguing over Elizabeth.” Tears rolled freely down her cheeks. “I remember one day when we were over at mama’s house and she noticed the tension between us. She asked me if everything was okay and I explained to her what was going on. I asked her if I wrong for wanting him to end the friendship with Elizabeth. She said to me, ‘No baby, you were wrong for how you got this man and that is why his friendship with this woman is driving you crazy. You are afraid that he will do to you what he did to his first wife with you.’” She shook her head and wiped the tears that were on her face but it didn’t do any good because they were immediately replaced by more. I too was crying by now. “I remember telling her that she was wrong and that wasn’t the reason that I wanted him to end the friendship but deep down inside I knew that she was right. She’d hit the nail directly on the head! Don’t get me wrong I knew that Jonathan loved me but hell he had loved Sylvia once before too!”

I interrupted, using the back of my hand to wipe my tears. “I have a quick question.”

“What is it?” She asked taking another sip of her juice and rubbing her belly.

“Throughout the entire relationship had Jonathan ever given you any reason to not trust him? I mean before this Elizabeth situation came about was there anything else?”

She shook her head.
