How does the weekend trip take a disturbing turn?
The fresh air feels amazing on my face as I lean back into the passenger seat. The window is open and I trace the wind with my hand, letting it lift and fall, lift and fall as my wife drives us deep into the mountains. She always drives.
Who unexpectedly arrives at the cabin?
At the start of our marriage, I thought it was because she loves driving, which I sort of think she does, in her own way of loving anything. But the reality is, she does it for the control.
What feelings of suspicion and paranoia arise?
That's her true motivator, and not just with driving. but with everything in our lives. I can't blame her. It's that kind of control that turned her from a weekend blogger into a media empire dominatrix. And yes, dominatrix is the correct word. Although she'd argue with me to the death about the term. To the death. Allison believes that she's assertive in a world dominated by tech bros and mansplainers. It doesn't matter that she ruffles more than feathers, that she's been known to burn bridges where bridges aren't even constructed, or wage wars just because she can. Go against my wife, and you get the scorched earth treatment.
How does the confrontation escalate with the stranger?
Trust me, been there, got scorched. It's why I planned to kill my wife this weekend. I don't hate her. I think I actually still love her.
What are the final consequences of the husband's plan?
But I'm just tired of her domineering crap. Reaching over, I pat her leg and give her a warm smile. Her lips curl up in a matching smile, although maybe not quite as warm as mine. She keeps her eyes on the winding road that leads us to the cabin I rented for the weekend. A little couple's getaway. Time for us to relax and reconnect. with plenty of privacy, so I can murder the hell out of the bitch. Sure, I am probably a bad person for this. Murdering your wife isn't exactly on the list of good husband attributes. But I simply can't take it anymore. I can't take her anymore. And divorce won't work. She'd get half of everything I own if I'm lucky. Knowing her and the lawyers she hires to vet her hit pieces and character attacks, I'd be mincemeat in seconds.
Not that I don't have my own army of lawyers. When you acquire IP like I do, you have to get your hands dirty. And when I say acquire, I mean to rip from their creator's hands with extreme prejudice. And by hands dirty, I mean crushing them under my venture capital boot. Making sure they not only can't come after me later, but that they actually thank me for not doing worse. Something on your mind? Her eyes stay firmly on the road. She doesn't even bother to look at me, even though she somehow thinks there's something on my mind. If she only knew... Nope, all good, sweetheart. Just thinking how lovely it'll all be when we get to the cabin and have some peace and quiet all to ourselves. Allison doesn't reply.
Well, not right away. Yes, about that. I manage to keep the anger and disappointment out of my voice. but I let a little creep in so that she knows I'm somewhat upset. Too much, and she might suspect I have ulterior motives. I wouldn't put it past her, but the woman has a sixth sense when it comes to duplicity. About what? What's wrong? Nothing's wrong. Nothing is wrong, Michael. Don't go into panic mode immediately. I'm not panicking. I'm asking what is wrong. As in, what are you about to tell me that is going to ruin our weekend alone?
