AINSLEY
My husband had a tell like no other. When he lied to me,
his skin flushed bright red. Not the slightest blush red, but
I’ve just run a marathon red. It was also the color he
became when he was embarrassed.
It was that shade of red I was staring at that night
across the dinner table as we discussed our new
arrangement.
“So, no questions at all?” he asked, rubbing his thumb
over his palm.

“None,” I agreed. “It’s the only way we can be sure it
will work. We aren’t accountable to each other for what
happens when we’re out. We’ll each have total freedom.”
“Okay.” He was breathless, doing everything he could to
avoid meeting my eyes.
“But we should have some other rules.”
That piqued his curiosity. His gaze found mine.
“Other rules… Like what?”
I tapped my finger against my lips, though I already
knew what rules I would require.

“First of all, you can only make connections for your
given day. You have Thursdays, I’ll do Tuesdays. Every
other day of the week, our life has to continue as normal.
There are to be no connections made outside of the app at
all. We won’t give out our phone numbers, no phone calls or
texts, etc. And, whoever you’re with, whatever you do…
protection is a must. We’ll each need to get tested after
every encounter.”

“Of course,” he said, nodding in agreement.
“This is just for fun, so I think we should also make a
rule that we shouldn’t see anyone we’re immensely
attracted to. We don’t want either of us to start making
genuine connections. It’s all physical.”
He nodded again, swallowing.

“Okay, yeah. Agreed.”
“And the kids can never know,” I said, lowering my
voice. “As far as they’re concerned, nothing can change.
You’ll be working late on Thursdays, I’ll be working late on
Tuesdays. Simple as that.”
He ran his fingers across his lips.

“Are you sure we can do this?”
I looked down at the table as the sickly feeling washed
over me—the one that had been ever-present since the
arrangement was proposed a week ago.
“I don’t think we have any choice.”
“You know I love you, right?” he asked, the tremble in
his voice more noticeable than ever.

“I love you too, Peter. This isn’t about that. We both
agree that things aren’t working as they are, and we can
either give up and walk away, or we can try something
new.” I paused, watching his facial expression harden. “I’m
trying here.”

“I know. I know you are… I don’t want to lose you.
Okay,” he said, very matter-of-factly. “So when do we
start?”
