Eventually my jaw unhinged itself from its open position at last, but my mind refused to catch up with reality. For several minutes after leaving the clubroom, my thoughts were still filled with questions and doubts.

How could he be cheating on me? We hardly dated at all! And besides, I had specifically told him that it was okay for him to bring other girls here too... Had he really forgotten that conversation so easily? What exactly did he mean when he said he wanted to "play along"? Why would he need my permission for something like this anyway? Did he just want to see how far he could push things? Wasn't he worried about getting caught at all? Wouldn't he be concerned about being sued or arrested for statutory rape or sexual harassment? If so then why was he acting like he wasn't even scared of any of that?
