My husband surprised me with an appointment with my manicurist, but during our session, I discovered the woman was cheating with him! Angry, I tried to retaliate by getting revenge, but when the truth came out, I was left with egg on my face! When I went in for my manicurist appointment that day, I had no idea that I was about to get more than what I bargained for. What I discovered had me seething as I imagined the worst about my loving husband. But before we get there, let me backtrack a bit to the day before... A woman at a beauty parlor | Source: Midjourney A woman at a beauty parlor | Source: Midjourney It had been a long day of privately tutoring a mix of energetic six-year-olds learning their ABCs and a precocious eight-year-old trying to ace his fractions. By the time I got home, I was completely drained. Adam, my husband of seven years, greeted me with his signature boyish smile and a kiss on the forehead. "How's my favorite teacher?" he asked, handing me a cup of herbal tea. "Tired," I replied with a laugh, plopping onto the couch. "But your tea makes it better." A happy woman drinking tea | Source: Midjourney A happy woman drinking tea | Source: Midjourney Adam always had a way of making me feel like the most important person in the world. We were one of those couples people envied, with a solid partnership full of love and shared dreams. We had just started planning for a family, and I'd been secretly pinning nursery ideas to my Pinterest board. "I might have to work late tonight, and tomorrow I'll be staying at work overnight, unfortunately," Adam said, running a hand through his dark hair. "Big project at the office." A man running his hand through his hair | Source: Midjourney A man running his hand through his hair | Source: Midjourney I nodded, not thinking much of it. His job as a successful manager for a mid-sized marketing firm often demanded odd hours. "Just don't overwork yourself, okay?" "I won't," he promised, kissing me again before adding, "To make it up to you, I booked an appointment for you tomorrow afternoon at Lily's Luxe Nails." I got up and thanked him with a kiss before he gave me one on the cheek and disappeared into his home office. A woman getting a kiss from her man | Source: Midjourney A woman getting a kiss from her man | Source: Midjourney The next day, I went and treated myself to the rare indulgence of a trip to Lily's Luxe Nails. Lily, the owner, was one of my favorite people. She had a magnetic personality, full of dramatic flair and endless gossip! Her stories always left me laughing or clutching my pearls. As I settled into the chair, Lily approached with her usual wide grin. "Honey, you're glowing! Your hubby's treating you well?"

Some of us don't get that lucky." Her comment caught my attention. Lily wasn't one to complain about her personal life. In fact, she often bragged about her adventures in romance. "Oh? Someone giving you trouble?" I asked. A woman getting her nails done | Source: Midjourney A woman getting her nails done | Source: Midjourney She smirked, leaning in conspiratorially. "No trouble at all. I've been seeing someone new, a real dreamboat! Smart, funny, successful! And let me tell you, he knows how to treat a lady!" "Good for you! What's it like?" Lily's eyes sparkled. "Our relationship is UNREAL! I've never felt ANYTHING like this before! Not even James compares to him!" James is Lily's husband. I'd met him before when he came to her workplace. A happy man | Source: Midjourney A happy man | Source: Midjourney "I guess I am an old-fashioned girl, 'cause I could never cheat on my husband, and I'm pretty sure he feels the same way," I responded. "Girl, that's YOUR loss! You wouldn't believe how romantic he is. Last week, he showed up with flowers just because he 'felt like it.' You also haven't SEEN who I'm talking about, don't even get me started on his dimples!" "Uh huh...," I replied, still not convinced that cheating on Adam would be a good idea. An unsure woman | Source: Midjourney An unsure woman | Source: Midjourney "He's also a manager at some company. Busy as hell, but he always makes time for me. He's planning to meet me tonight at that cute boutique hotel across the street while telling his wife he's working late so we can meet up. I'm counting down the minutes!" I froze, a strange chill creeping up my spine. "That's sweet," I managed to say, my voice faltering. Lily didn't notice... An unhappy woman | Source: Midjourney An unhappy woman | Source: Midjourney Dimples? My chest tightened. Adam has dimples. Adam is a manager. Adam was supposed to be working late tonight. I tried to shake off the uneasy feeling clawing at my chest. It had to be a coincidence... "Well, do you have a picture of this 'dream guy'? I'm curious," I asked, hoping to quash my paranoia. Lily grinned, pulling out her phone. "Of course, darling! Look at this stud muffin!" she said, pulling out her phone. My stomach dropped. An upset woman looking at a phone | Source: Midjourney An upset woman looking at a phone | Source: Midjourney There he was, MY Adam, smiling in the photo with his arm casually draped around Lily. I stared at the picture, willing it to be fake. Maybe I was seeing things. Maybe it was a doppelgänger. But deep down, I knew the truth. "Wow," I said, my voice trembling as I lost it inside but kept it together for appearances. "He's…definitely a catch." "Right?" Lily gushed, completely unaware of my turmoil as she placed her phone, still unlocked, on the table. A phone on a manicurist's table | Source: Midjourney A phone on a manicurist's table | Source: Midjourney I forced a laugh, but my mind was racing. "Excuse me," I said, standing abruptly. I grabbed her phone quickly when she wasn't looking. "I need to use the restroom." Once inside, I splashed cold water on my face, trying to steady my breathing. Adam. My Adam. Cheating with Lily? I felt like the ground had been ripped out from under me. But as the shock subsided, another emotion took its place: fury. I wasn't going to let this slide. I started plotting, and my revenge was going to be served cold tonight at the hotel across the street. An upset woman in the bathroom | Source: Midjourney An upset woman in the bathroom | Source: Midjourney I quickly saved Lily's husband's number on my phone, as he was a big part of my revenge. After I finished my appointment with Lily, I called her husband and told him everything I knew about her affair with Adam. He was as shocked as I was and quickly on board with getting revenge that very night! Before heading to the hotel together later that night, I insisted we stop at the hardware store. James trailed behind me as I loaded our cart with cans of unwashable paint. A woman with paint cans | Source: Midjourney A woman with paint cans | Source: Midjourney "What's this for?" he asked, still trying to make sense of my erratic behavior. "I figured we could mark the cheaters with it. You'll see," I said curtly. When we arrived at the hotel, James and I stood outside the hotel with our "props," ready to make the "couple's" meeting unforgettable. "Are we seriously doing this?" James asked. "Watch me," I said with determination as I marched straight through the hotel's doors, paint cans in hand!

But instead, I found myself face-to-face with an entrance full of balloons, streamers, and a massive banner that read: "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY LOVE!" My jaw dropped. Standing in the middle of the room were Lily and Adam, grinning like a pair of mischievous kids. Behind them were my parents, my sister, and a handful of close friends! "Surprise!" everyone yelled.

Adam stepped forward, his dimples on full display. "It's your birthday party, sweetheart! We wanted to do something special for you seeing as you ALWAYS forget your birthday." "Wait," I said, my brain struggling to catch up. "So…you're not cheating?" Adam laughed, pulling me into a hug. "Of course not. Lily, James, and I have been planning this for weeks!"

"I thought…" Adam cupped my face, wiping away my tears. "I know, and I'm sorry. I shouldn't have gone that far with the plan. I thought you'd pick up what was happening when I booked your manicurist appointment, but you have to admit, this was worth it." It was...
