Me just there, drinking my coffee quietly on a random Tuesday, when I see my husband getting a message. And no, I'm not one of those who go through the phone, but when I saw that the name said "Alexandra" and it turned PALE, so sorry but my wife's radar was fully activated.
"Who is Alejandra?" "I asked in that voice we all know, the voice of *I know something's going on*.
My husband stuttering: "It's... is my ex from like 8 years ago.. "
"Haha, and what does your ex from 8 years ago want?" "
Silence. He shows me the message and I almost choked on the coffee. The woman telling him that the son she has, 7 years old, IS HIS. He can't stand the lie anymore. That the husband she's with thinks he's hers but no.
Me suing: "Are you telling me you potentially have a kid going around and I don't even know?". "
He swearing and perjuring that he never knew anything, that when they broke up she was already with the one who is now her husband, that this falls from the sky.
But this is where I, instead of crying like in novels, thought, "No, my love, if we're going to fall, we all fall."
I grabbed my phone, searched Alejandra's husband online (it wasn't difficult, she even has it in her profile picture), and sent him a direct message:
"Hi, you don't know me but I think you should know that your wife just wrote to my husband to tell him that your son is his." I thought you deserved to know. Greetings. "
SEND.
My husband looked at me like I was going crazy: "WHAT DID YOU DO?". "
"The same thing she did, my life. Communicate uncomfortable truths lol"
At 10 minutes in, my husband's phone exploding. FURIOUS Alejandra. How dare I. That had ruined their marriage. That was a scrub.
Me answering from my husband's cell phone: "You started this domino, my friend." I just finished it 💅"
Now it turns out her husband wants DNA test, my husband too (obviously), and I'm over here watching how the drama that came to MY door uninvited is now EVERYONE'S problem.
My mom told me, "daughter, that was wrong." "
My bestie: "ICONIC, that's the level of revenge I respect. "
But what do you guys think: Did I do it right to get in or should I let her sink alone? 🤔
