The Screenshot Divorce

“Babe, the usual spot tonight. Miss you.” The text sat quietly in the family group thread. Sender: My husband, Mark. I stared at the screen. My mother-in-law sent a question mark. My father-in-law sent a question mark. I sent nothing. Three seconds later, Mark frantically hit unsend. “Wrong chat, wrong chat! That was for the work team.” I smiled. Work team? His work team was named “Babe”? His co-worker lived at “the usual spot”? I clicked on his profile picture and saw the last message he had sent me— “Don’t worry about the wife, she has no idea.” Is that right? I have no idea?
