@danielsin753: My husband had been spending every night for a week at a pool hall, claiming to support his recently divorced friend. When I went there unexpectedly, a woman looked at his photo and quietly said, "You're his wife? Then there's something you need to know about his visits." "Keith's having a rough time," Russell told me last Monday as he picked up his keys. "I thought I'd play a few games with him." Keith was an old colleague of Russell’s. We had been married for 22 years; our youngest was away at college. I appreciated Russell being social. On the first evening, I paid little attention. Russell said Keith had managed to laugh. But he returned Tuesday. And Wednesday. "Again?" I questioned Thursday. "He's not doing great, Beth. I don't want to leave him alone." I understood, though Russell always left after dinner and got home late. By Saturday, he no longer mentioned their games. "How's Keith?" I asked. "Fine," Russell replied, putting on his jacket. When I suggested joining, he said Keith wouldn't want company. Russell left for the seventh night on Sunday. Curiosity prompted me to drive to the pool hall, a small place with green tables, and a counter by the entrance. A woman worked there. "Hi, I'm looking for Russell. He's been coming here with Keith." I showed her a photo of us. She studied it, lowered her voice, and said, "You're his wife? Then there's something you need to know about his visits." "What do you mean? Is something wrong?" She looked at the back room. "Does Russell know you're here?" "No. Why?" She paused, "Then I think you should see him before he sees you." See less
