It was the fourth time thatweek Holly had made a bathroom run in the middle of the night.“Either she has an incredibly weak bladder,” Gia thought....“Or something’s happening in that bathroom that I might beinterested in.”She gave Holly five minutes, more than enough time to takecare of an actual nature call. The large communal bathroom wasremoved from the twin living bays by a long hall. Gia tried to walkas quietly as she could as she traced Holly’s steps. She also turnedoff the flashlight that. John was a bit concerned, but Joe resolved that it was going to take an army to make that happen.Anyway, some inquiries were made over a period of three weeks. The investigators did stay in John's tavern while they were in town, and Joe thought that was hilariously ironic, but Joe was the only one to see that as funny. The investigators didn't say anything to anybody in town, but returned to Boston to make their report.About a month later, a replacement parson showed up. They never did hear. We went into the dining room and sat at the table, both of us feeling the drinks we had consumed thus far. Dave had just poured me my third one, and I’m a lightweight. Dave sat adjacent to me, quite close so we could talk quietly. Buzzed or not, I was totally unprepared for Dave’s opening question. “Have you heard things about Chloe?” Was he trying to find out if she cheats on him? Was I being put on the spot, asked to choose between the two of them in a way that would end up with her hating. Surprisingly, I didn’t bang on the door with my own screams but sat down in a nearby chair to wait for them to come out.When they did, I just got up, grabbed my coat and said, “Find your own way if you're coming home. Maybe we can talk tomorrow while we are nursing hangovers.”To make the proverbial long story short, they had been having an affair for months. It made me feel pretty stupid that I hadn’t seen the signs but I became heartbroken when my wife said that she wanted a divorce. It was.
