It’s insane! How could she possibly do this to me? What did I do wrong for this to happen to me? These thoughts raced through David’s mind. He couldn’t believe his eyes when he viewed a new snapshot provided to him by his wife Sara. She had just sent him a photo of herself in new clothing, which she thought was typical. But it turned out to be a terrible error because his boyfriend David was more impressed with the snapshot than she imagined…
He was furious when he saw a small, significant detail! Everything in their lives would change…
Texting Sara out of desperation
At the hotel, David hung up the phone. He couldn’t believe what they were telling him. He was certain Sara had lied to him for the previous few months. But what had she been keeping from him? He believes he must contact her…
Asking for a picture
He doesn’t want her to figure out what he knows, so he sends her a message that seems as natural as possible: “Hey sweety, what are you up to?”. After a few minutes, he receives a response. “Not much, just working.” David is convinced she is lying, but how can he prove it? Perhaps with a photo…
Filing for divorce
He gets what he asked for 15 minutes later. He no longer has any reservations after attentively scrutinizing the images. David filed for divorce the next morning, and it was finalized less than a month later… But what did David observe in these photos that disturbed him so much? A little backstory is required to adequately understand this…
Meet Sara and David
Sara and David are a young couple living in Los Angeles. They’ve been dating for about three years, and they’ve even been married for two of those years. They appear to be a typical happy family like any other, yet they have a lot of interesting history that would make the majority of people raise an eyebrow…
High Ambitions
Sara had high educational goals when she was younger. But she’d quickly realized that this wasn’t meant for her. Sara was not good at school and did not enjoy it.
Lonely
She didn’t have many friends, Sara would often spend lunch eating by herself on a table, however, but one particular group was quite interested in her…
Popular Girl
That includes the males at school. Sara is an extremely lovely girl, and the males couldn’t take their gaze away from her. They would do anything for her, and Sara learned to take advantage of this.
An Addiction To Attention
She relished all the attention, and she almost grew hooked on it. Nothing else could have made her feel the way it did, for the first time in her life she was given unrelenting attention, she loved it, she loved all the attention…
Guys losing interest
Sara’s interest seemed to diminish a little as she grew older. Many of the boys got into partnerships or changed their interests, leaving Sara behind.
On Her Own
She was now in a tough situation since she needed to start taking responsibility for her own life, which was difficult without any special expertise. She chose to rely on what she knew.
Banking on her looks
And that was relying on her appearances to achieve what she desired, which in this case was money. Sara had dropped out of school since finishing seemed nearly unattainable to her, and she wanted money to prove to her parents that she would be fine in life. But her alternatives were restricted at the time…
Looking For Work
Sara herself knew that her looks would be a great asset in looking for a job, however Sara didn’t want to do much work, she wanted a job that while gave her money, wouldn’t stress her out…
Modeling work
Sara soon decided to try her hand at modeling, and she quickly felt at ease in this job. She didn’t require any academic knowledge or talents. All she had to do was follow the directions and appear nice. In her opinion, it was a dream job.
Parents were not supportive
While Sara was overjoyed with her modeling work, her parents were less enthusiastic. They appreciated that she was making money, but they thought she wasn’t learning anything and that if her looks failed her, she’d have nothing to fall back on.
Talking To Her
Sara’s parents tried multiple times talking Sara into switching jobs, even going as far as to give her job offers from their friends. They expressed their worries to Sara that what if she lost her good looks? How could she gain money then?
Wanting to move out
This resulted in numerous arguments between them, and Sara eventually felt that the situation at home had deteriorated to the point that she could no longer be there. But she didn’t have anywhere else to go. At least, not until she met someone extremely wonderful…
Meeting somebody special
Sara had been engaged to work on a large-budget film. The most important in her career. She had to show up a week before all of the photoshoots to go through everything with the organizers. All of the sets were still being erected by workers at this stage, and one of them piqued Sara’s interest…
A carpenter named David
David was the name of this worker. He was a carpenter by trade, only a few years Sara’s senior, and was tasked with building one of the sets for the big picture shoot. This was a job that would take at least another week to finish, and Sara was determined to make the most of every second…
A real connection
Sara was greatly interested in David, and he rapidly developed an affection for her as well. During the week, the two became fast friends and exchanged phone numbers when David’s task was finished.
Something Was Blooming
Sara and David talked practically every day and met together frequently in the months that followed. They both had the impression that something extraordinary was taking place.
Falling in love
The couple had fallen head over heels in love and thought they were meant to be together. David was excited for Sara to move in with him, and Sara couldn’t wait.
A Rule
But, as Sara would soon discover, David had a strict condition that Sara must follow for them to continue their trip together…
David didn’t like Sara’s work
Sara’s type of work did not sit well with David. At all. He needed Sara to abandon her profession as a model before he was willing to fully give his heart and home to her.
Getting Possessive
He didn’t want anyone else to see how beautiful she was. This demand caught Sara completely off unprepared. He was basically asking her to quit her job because he wanted her for himself.
Him or the job
She had met David during a picture session and anticipated him to be quite welcoming of her work. However, this appears to be far from the case.
Flashbacks
Sara immediately had memories of her parents’ circumstances, and her mind was flooded with doubt. She had to think long and hard about this decision…
A difficult decision
Sara did not want to give up a career that she enjoyed and believed she was extremely good at. But her feelings for David were so intense.
Preferring One Over The Other
Was she willing to put everything on the line for someone she’d just met a few months before? Sara’s decision was made quickly since the more she thought about it, the more she leaned to one side…
Stopping as a model
Because her feelings for David were too powerful to ignore, she decided to quit her work and move in with him. She truly believed he was the love of her life at the moment, and she was also confident in her ability to swiftly find another employment. But this would prove to be far more difficult than anticipated…
The first year was a dream
Sara and David’s first year together felt like something out of a dream. The couple spent as much time as they could together, and each day, they felt more and more certain that they were destined for each other. And still, high on their pink cloud, the pair made a momentous decision…
Getting married
They decided to get married! Nonetheless, as quickly as feasible. They were able to organize a large wedding with a large number of attendees. It was a day of pure joy and bliss, exactly what Sara had wished for since she was a little child. But that dream would come with a price…
Going broke
The wedding was paid for at a great cost because the couple spent nearly all of their savings on the lavish wedding. Taking advantage of David’s money had become a typical occurrence for the newlyweds in the previous year. Sara had failed to find work, and David’s carpenter’s wage was proving insufficient to sustain them.
Having to find a job
Sara realized she needed to get back to work. And as soon as possible! With just enough money to meet their necessities, the couple also needed to keep paying their rent; otherwise, they would be booted out of their residence, end up on the streets, and potentially lose all…
Getting her independence back
Sara was initially ecstatic about acquiring a new job. She yearned to work as a model and to feel active in general. She had been relying on David for a long time and had never liked how she felt as a result. She was eager to reclaim her independence.
A grim reality
Sara applied for a few positions that piqued her interest and was convinced that she would find her dream job in no time. But as time passed, Sara realized she had been overly optimistic about her possibilities, and she was presented with a harsh reality…
Rejected over and over again
Sara was rejected for practically every job she applied for. And the more jobs she applied for, the less she wanted these roles. She tried everything, from office manager to store laborer. But Sara was always met with the same response after a potential employer reviewed her CV…
Old pictures haunting her
She lacked both the experience and education that companies want. A fast Google search might also yield some (often inappropriate) images for work other than as a model. And that was precisely what David was no longer doing for her…
Feeling ashamed
Sara was becoming very embarrassed. She was ashamed that she couldn’t manage to locate suitable work and that she couldn’t thus contribute to David’s income. She was aware of how hard he worked to bring money into the household and felt bad for not contributing…
No other choice
This process of applying for each job she could find and being denied time after time lasted at least two months. And with the pair now down to their last dollar, Sara felt she had no choice. She was only truly good at one thing, and she wanted to start producing money right away!
Lying to David
Sara informed David that she had finally found work, as an evening/night staffer for a local hotel. Sara didn’t want to lie to David, but she knew he wouldn’t accept her new position if he knew what it was. And the pair couldn’t afford to wait much longer to make additional money.
Working evenings and nights
Even though David had no idea what Sara was doing for a living, he was dissatisfied with the phony work she had convinced him she was performing. Mostly because Sara working evenings and nights meant they’d spend less time together. Sara, on the other hand, informed him she didn’t have a choice.
Hoping it would soon change
David couldn’t physically work any more than he already was, and their financial condition was deteriorating by the day. David only hoped that the strange house would be only temporary. Sara expressed her hope as well, but she was well aware that this was not the case.
David was getting suspicious
Sara was able to keep her true employment a secret from David for a month after that. She became increasingly sure that she was getting away with it, but Sara had no idea that David had begun to notice some things and had begun to have some questions about what was going on…
Bringing home expensive items
Sara’s earnings were the first indicator. Her pay was being put directly into their joint bank account, and the sums didn’t seem unusual to David. Sara, on the other hand, told him that she earned money from tips as well and that David had told her that she may keep the money for herself. I had no idea how much it was…
How could Sara afford these?
David never asked Sara how much she made in tips, but he became increasingly curious as time passed. Mostly because Sara was regularly returning home with obviously very expensive stuff that David couldn’t conceive paying for only with hotel tips…
Her tips could not be enough
David had noticed new handbags, coats, make-up, sunglasses, and other items being brought into the house with the excuse that Sara had purchased them with her tip money. David didn’t know much about these products or their prices, but he recognized the brand and realized that if someone like him could do it, it had to be incredibly expensive…
No evidence yet
Even though David had concerns about all of this, he did not want to face Sara with his concerns. Not yet, at any rate. He had no evidence, and her returning to work had greatly aided their financial situation. But David would soon find the evidence he was looking for…
Getting more worried
With David’s suspicions growing, he became increasingly skeptical of what Sara was doing when she wasn’t with him, and things other than the nice gifts Sara was bringing home began to stand out to him. And everything that piqued his interest made him more concerned…
A sexy outfit
Sara had brought home a very lovely and sensual attire, which David found unusual. It was identical to what she wore when they first met when she was modeling. David adored seeing her in this new attire, but after a few occasions, he never saw her in it again.
Looking For The Outfit
David questioned why this was the case given that he frequently showed his appreciation for it. However, he didn’t even find the garment in the closet when he was doing laundry on a night when Sara was at work. She wouldn’t have already thrown it away, would she? Or did she store it elsewhere?Another strange thing that David noticed was that Sara seemed to be less and less interested in them doing anything romantic or even being intimate. This had never happened before Sara began working, not even when their financial strain had rendered them practically helpless to do anything but worry.
Feeling Paranoid
Sara herself attempted to attribute this change to being worn out from work, but David didn’t buy it. In his opinion, it was a simple and straightforward explanation, and his paranoia had long since moved him past the point at which he would have been willing to accept it. Was it possible that she obtained it from a third party? Is it possible that Sara is betraying him?
His Feat Was Eating Him Up
It seems that David’s fears started to truly take control of him at that point. He could not get rid of the worry that Sara would cheat on him with another man. The more he considered it, the more shape it gained, and the more sense it made with everything else he was observing…
Another Man
What if she was actually dating a sugar daddy rather than simply another man? Someone who could afford not only the pricey stuff Sara kept bringing home, but also her “salary” so she could appear to be working while actually spending time with him! Additionally, it would clarify where the attractive outfit disappeared.
He Needded To Know
David was aware that all he had were conjectures and that he lacked any solid proof that Sara was unfaithful to him, either with a sugar daddy or in another way. Potentially worse. He finally lost all self-control one night while Sara was at work.
Tring To Call Sara
Before their issues became unfixable, David simply needed to talk to Sara about all of his concerns, suspicions, and sentiments. He began by calling Sara’s cellphone, which she nearly always answered, but she didn’t answer. David makes the decision to contact the hotel Sara works at. But he was unaware that he would soon experience a major shock.
Confusing Him
David eventually connects with the hotel’s front desk after a few rings. He makes an effort to greet them cordially before asking them to call Sara right away. A voice on the other end of the line responds to his question with a confused-sounding request for a moment so that she may verify something.
He Overthinked
David has some reflective time while waiting for roughly five minutes. What did he have on? He was allowing his paranoia to rule him entirely. Sara would never subject him to such treatment. But then the person on the other end of the line called back with a dire message.
Sara Didn’t Work There
There was no Sara working there that evening, according to a record check by the front desk staff member. Even though she made calls to every supervisor there, none of them had Sara listed on their roster. They discovered that no one with such name had ever had employment at the motel.
He Was Heartbroken
David had a complete collapse of his world at that precise instant when those words were spoken by the woman on the other end of the telephone, and all the worst-case scenarios he had been shoving to the back of his mind started to resurface.
What to do Now
David ended the call with the motel and hung up silently. He stayed there still for at least fifteen minutes, thinking about what to do next while holding the horn in his hand. He made an effort to remain cool since he understood he needed a plan that wasn’t purely driven by his feelings right now.
She Was Lying
Now that he had the proof, he was certain that Sara had lied to him about her employment. What else, though, had she been fabricating? He was still unsure of the precise nature of her situation. When she wasn’t at the hotel, where did she go to pass the time? He simply had his conjectures.
Receiving A Message
David was still lost in concentration as his phone briefly vibrated in his hand. He then glanced at the lit-up screen. Sara had sent the text. She apologies for missing his call and inquires about his well-being. David has a strong desire to tell Sara what he knows, but he restrains himself. For now…
Finding Out For Himself
David worries that if he confronts Sara about everything, she would not be truthful about what she has been withholding from him and instead come up with a different defense that he would be unable to refute. He must first determine this for himself, or he will never again be able to relax.
He Missed her
David worries that if he confronts Sara about everything, she would not be truthful about what she has been withholding from him and instead come up with a different defense that he would be unable to refute. He must first determine this for himself, or he will never again be able to relax.
