"Hey Mike, Incoming! I think she's looking for you."
Cara was use to Bill’s playful ways, but she wasn’t sure how Brenda was going to take it. She glanced quickly over at the woman seated at Mike’s side.
"Cara, can I get a pass for the evening?"
Mike’s tone seemed a little forced as he tried kidding around. Cara, who was seated next to Brenda, leaned in close to the woman and whispered in her ear.
“Don’t mind Bill. He’s just joking around, Brenda. I should apologize to Mike.”
Brenda’s hand touched Cara’s arm and she smiled a little, responding back.
“Don’t bother yourself, Cara. It’s fine. Mike’s just worried about how I am going to respond, is all. I need to use the ladies' room, come with?”
Cara nodded and stood up with Brenda. She nodded at the men.
“If you gentlemen will excuse us, Brenda and I are headed for the powder room. We’ll be back in a bit. Order us another drink, will you please, Bill?”
She leaned up to kiss her husband’s cheek as they passed by. Cara slipped her arm through Brenda’s as they headed for the room marked “Ladies.”
“I’m sorry for dragging you with me, Cara. I wanted to ask you something in private. How do you guys do it? Your kids are grown and out of the house. Doesn’t the silence get to you?”
Cara watched as Brenda slipped into a stall and lock the door behind her. She thought about Brenda’s question for a moment.
“Initially, yes it did. We got so use to our lives focusing on the kids that we lost sight of our own. There I was, sitting at home with very little to do. It had seemed like yesterday that the kids were home and there were things we needed to do. I was lost. I guess we both were and growing even further apart. Bill kept trying to get me to talk to him but how and where did I find the words to tell him how I was feeling?”
“So, what did you do?”
Brenda asked as she came out of the stall and washed her hands, all the while looking at Cara. Cara shrugged.
“I can’t tell you how it happened because, frankly, I don’t know. I just felt like Bill and I were headed for divorce if I didn’t find a way to talk to him, “Cara smiled a little, “Bill and I have been together a long time. We love each other and both of us were determined to find a way back to each other. Even our intimacy was fading. How do you bring that back?”
“Yes, how do you?” Brenda wiped her hands on some paper towels before tossing them in the garbage can.
“Well, it’s not for everyone, but Bill and I explored a little unknown local club in our hometown.”
Cara was deliberately being vague. The lifestyle she and Bill had embarked upon was clearly not for everyone and she didn’t quite know where Brenda stood on such matters. It was better to be vague than completely open. Just yet. She led the door open for them as they headed back to their men. She could tell Brenda was curious and wanted to ask more but Cara was being cautious. Slipping her arm around her husband’s shoulder, she leaned in for a kiss.
“Miss me?” She asked playfully.
