When she came through the door, he told himself - for god's sake don't react, take your time, find out if she was cheating, but go at it slowly, with finesse.But once inside, the bar's cool blue lights on her tight new dress drove Dan crazy for revenge.
Even as she spotted him through heavy smoke and moving bodies, even as she smiled, words were coming out of his mouth.
She stopped where she was, a good twenty feet from where he stood.
The look on her face said, "I don't understand. What have I done?"
He felt like a fool.
But there was no turning back, he was committed.
He would have to play this one to the end.
"CHEATER!" he screamed.
"FUCKING CHEATER BITCH LIAR!!!" he hollered, so loud and so forcefully that all the air left his body.
He felt dizzy in the head all of a sudden.
His vision blurred so he wasn't sure now if she was walking towards him or not.
Turns out she was because the woman did not have a twenty foot arm and the force of the punch felt very close.
Also, he was pretty sure he could smell Mennen After Shave coming off her sweaty body as he went down.
