My husband surprised me with an appointment at my manicurist, but during the session, I discovered she was cheating with him! Furious, I plotted revenge, only to be left humiliated when the truth came out.
The day before, after a tiring day of tutoring, my husband Adam greeted me with his usual charm and revealed he’d booked a manicure for me the next day. He also mentioned working late, which wasn’t unusual for his job. At the salon, my manicurist, Lily, casually mentioned she was seeing someone new—someone smart, funny, and successful. When she revealed her “dream guy” was a manager, had dimples, and was meeting her that night at a hotel, I panicked. Adam has dimples and was supposed to be working late!
Lily then showed me a picture of her “dream guy”—it was Adam. I was devastated. After the appointment, I contacted Lily’s husband, James, and we plotted revenge. We bought cans of paint to mark the cheaters.
At the hotel, I stormed in ready to confront them, only to find a surprise birthday party for me, organized by Adam, Lily, and James. I’d completely misunderstood. Everyone had been in on it, and Adam apologized for taking the prank too far.
After the party, I felt silly, but it turned into a great celebration. As we left, we saw “CHEATER!!!!” written on our car with lipstick. I was mortified, but Adam just laughed. It was a birthday I’d never forget!
