One Minute Affirmations Stories: Don't Cheat on Your Husband Who
is a Police Officer!
Bev was the wife of a local RCMP Officer, Bradley. She
felt he did not appreciate her. He worked long hours and then
spent time going to local schools and giving talks about the
dangers of doing drugs, and so forth.
Bev was having an affair with a businessman named Jason.
When Bradley went to work in the evening, she would put their
three children, ages eight, ten and eleven to bed. She then
would ask her sister, who lived in the other side of the duplex,
to look in on them. She had convinced her sister Sue that she
needed to spend some adult time with her lady friends. She would
then meet Jason in a designated, secluded spot and they would
make love. She lived for those moments and Jason was now
occupying a great deal of her thoughts.
One evening, which was especially passionate for both Bev
and Jason, they did not hear the footsteps approaching the van.
The loud banging on the door of the vehicle brought them both
abruptly back to their senses. The blaring light of the
flashlight was relentless. It shone on their naked bodies. They
could not see the person's face, but they both thought that
person might be a police officer. He cleared this throat and
said in a very loud, unfriendly, commanding voice, "Move on out
of here!" Both Jason and Bev scrambled to put on their clothes
and as Bev looked out the window, she saw the taillights of an
RCMP vehicle speeding down the road. They hastily said their
good byes and Bev got into her car and rushed home. She was in a
pickle.
Who was that officer? Of course he would recognize her as
they lived in a relatively small town. Would the officer tell
Bradley? Would he stoop to blackmail? Was her marriage going to
be ruined? Should she confess before Bradley was told by one of
his colleagues? How would this news affect the children? She
tried to keep things as normal as possible. She really did love
Bradley. If he would just pay more attention to her and the kids
and spend more time with them. If only he would take her out
once in a while or tell her that he needed her. She could not
remember the last time he told her she looked pretty.
Several months went by and Bev was becoming a nervous
wreck. She had not spoken to Jason since that night. She
searched Bradley's face every day and night for signs of anger,
disappointment or knowing. She thought about the chain of events
and was shocked to discover that during the last month she had
hardly given Jason a thought. Did this mean she really loved her
husband?
One day when the kids were in school and Bev and Bradley
were alone, he casually said, "Honey, is this the lipstick you
have been looking for?" He handed it to her with his usual
lop-sided grin. She gasped, took the lipstick and realized that
it was the one that she had dropped outside the vehicle that
fateful night. "Why, it was you," she cried, "You saw us and
changed your voice when you said "Move on out of here!" His eyes
bored into her eyes as he asked almost in a whisper, "Do you
love him?" Bev was crying uncontrollably by this time, "No, no,"
she said, "I love you, but you act like you do not care and at
times that I am not even there... invisible you know?
When was the last time you said, "I love you, you look
pretty and took me out to dinner or a movie?" I have feelings
you know. I am not just a robot or just the children's mother. I
am a real woman with desire and sexual feelings flowing through
my veins. I am so sorry Bradley, I know adultery or cheating is
not the answer. I do not really deserve you and our marriage.
Please do not blame Jason because if it was not him, it would
have been someone else. I have not even thought of him since
that night. She continued, "But please, please she begged with
tears streaming down her cheeks, do not take my children."
Bradley stared at her for what seemed like hours and then
he spoke choosing his words carefully and deliberately.
"Beverly, you are the mother of my children. I am shocked,
devastated and hurt at what I saw. I do know that I have been
very busy with my work, the school programs and I have been
feeling guilty about being so selfish and not spending time with
you and the children. I do not condone, like or agree with what
you did.
I feel it is definitely beneath you and a terrible blow
to our marriage, but I do love you and the children; you are my
life. I will work at forgiving you, changing and doing my part,
but we both have to go for counseling immediately. I cannot
stand the thought of life without you. Bev, I love you." She
flew into his arms and that kiss could have ignited the biggest
fire in the Province of British Columbia!
