Running some errands with my husband and our children
We have two so far
And I'm pregnant with two more
Looking for a crib that'll accommodate twins at the furniture store
I see a professionally dressed white woman with her hair in a bun
She looks like she hasn't slept in days
She walks on over to us
Looks at my husband
Looks at him intently
Is she planning on stealing him from me?
She'd have better luck trying to rob Fort Knox
She starts to speak
"Wait... is that you..."
"Yes, it's me", my husband responds
"Wow... I haven't seen you since sophomore year in high school"
"Yeah, it's been a long time," he says rather coldly. "What's up with you?"
"Just trying to climb the corporate ladder and find that special someone", she says with an unconvincing smile. "I'm sure I can do both... eventually."
"Well, I've found my special someone", he replies, putting his arm around me. "Meet my wife. Went to Japan as an exchange student and met her there."
"Oh, that's... lovely."
"She is, isn't she? Well, I better get going."
I ask him who it was
He says he had a girlfriend before me
He though she loved him
But then he found out she was cheating on him
He broke up with her and was reluctant to date for a while
That's why he was a bit reluctant to confess to me
About half an hour later, we head out to our car
I can't help but notice her in her car
Holding her head in her hands
Shoulders shaking
Torn between feeling sorry for her and believing she got what she deserved
She threw away a wonderful man with her selfish, thoughtless betrayal
And she'll have to live with that fact forever
