Nora stiffened as she watched him from the top of her mug. She didn't interfere and allowed him to continue.
"I couldn't satisfy her no matter what I did. Then, one day, I caught her cheating on me with a friend." He looked down at his mug silently.
After a while, he continued, "This book had my story and her new boyfriend's story in it. She called him her redeemer... I just realized after four years that I was the man who tied her in prison. She was never sexually satisfied with me... I thought all along that I was doing the right thing. I never knew she was faking her moans and orgasms..."
Nora could relate with Lisa's situation, so she tried to console him. "You'll find the woman that was meant for you. I'm sure Lisa finds other good qualities in you that she would regret losing. Don't beat yourself up."
