Thank you. I originally wrote this because of an article on polyamory I read a very long time ago about a woman sitting on her porch, waiting for her husband to return. They had decided to call it an "open marriage" because he couldn't stop cheating on her. So, to remain married, they decided to have an open marriage and she sat on that porch, miserable as hell for that.

I hated that article.

Cheating is the worst reason in the world to choose an open marriage. I'm a strong believer in communication, be it one, two, or more people in your life. So, I finally wrote a story that started the same way but ended in, what I hope is, a healthier outcome.

Thank you!
