He Watched

She was unaware that her husband was keeping a close eye on her. It had been 18 years since they had gotten married and he thought he knew everything about her. He soon learned that that was not the case,

He was watching her from afar as she ran her fingers through her loosened hair. He could not believe his eyes as his hands balled into tight fists.

John And Donna

John and his wife, Donna lived together in a nice house in Honesdale, Pennsylvania. They have been married for 18 years and never experienced any marital problems.

John and Donna had two beautiful kids, polite and well-behaved. The household was a loving one and for John, everything seemed perfect. As if it was too good to be true, and it was.

The Perfect Couple

Despite having the odd fight and arguments, John and his wife were a match made in heaven. They seemed like the perfect couple. He loved his wife dearly and thought the feeling was mutual. But then he started noticing something wasn’t quite right with Donna.

It all started when he noticed a change in her work life.

Keeping Up Appearances

As a photographer, John mostly worked from home, and Donna worked at the local pharmacy. She walked to and back from work everyday. But when she started arriving home late from work a lot, that’s when things got weird.

She started to wear make-up again and dressed better.

Acting Strange

John hadn’t seen Donna wear makeup in years. Once they got married and moved in together, Donna got comfortable without it.

It didn’t bother John in the slightest but now seeing her dressed to impress once more made him a little envious. When John questioned her about it, she answered strangely.

Brushing Him Off

She was surprised he noticed and said she wasn’t wearing much. She just wanted to feel nice again at work. Her rebuffed answer made him curious. He asked why she was coming home later and later.

“No reason, work is just very busy”, she replied. He tried to forget about it but he couldn’t shake feeling suspicious.

Distrust

YouTube/Inside Edition

He just couldn’t shake the feeling he had. He needed to find out what was going on. But how could he do that without her knowledge?

He knew if he asked again it would lead to a fight. He knew that he should have trusted her, but it was hard given the circumstances.

Drone Solution

John was a photographer so he naturally turned to his equipment and their observation skills for help.

He decided that his best option to secretly find out what she got up to was to follow her on her commute to work with his drone, flying it secretly overhead behind her. It was a decision he’d live to regret.

Plan Into Action

The next day, he put his plan into action. He felt bad about deceiving her but he couldn’t help but feel suspicious of her. He didn’t know what else to do so he followed through with his calculated plan.

His heart pounded as he kissed her goodbye and watched her leave. Now, it was game time.

Take Off

Reddit

He knew she wasn’t being honest with him and he had to find out why. He raced to his room, took the drone that was already set up and ready to go on his desk and went outside.

He waited until she turned the corner to turn it on and take flight. He held the remote control firmly within his hands and began to follow her.

Wrong Direction

As he watched through the lens of the drone from his bedroom he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

What seemed fine at first turned bad when he noticed that she wasn’t heading towards the pharmacy, but somewhere else. He felt his stomach twist into a knot.

Delicate Operation

YouTube/Inside Edition

John was careful not to fly the drone too close to her. He needed to fly it far enough away to conceal the humming noise and keep her from looking around, but close enough to see exactly what she was up to.

Little did he know that he was in for a rude awakening.

Feeling Sick

Credits

John couldn’t believe what he was looking at. She got to a quiet parking lot where she was she met with a stranger, she let her hair down when she spoke to him.

John felt his blood run cold as he questioned everything. He felt awful as he clenched his fists into a ball.

Horror And Despair

Credits

He watched in horror as his wife bent down to the driver’s seat window and kissed the person on the side of the cheek, then she walked around to the passenger seat and got in.

John couldn’t keep watching. He had seen enough. He didn’t get a good look at the person inside the car but he didn’t even care to. He was seeing red.

Sinking In

YouTube/Inside Edition

He raced back home and landed the drone in his front yard. He grabbed the device in a panic and took it inside with him.

What did he just witness? His world was caving. How could she do this to him? More importantly, what was he going to do about it?

Complete Shock

YouTube/Inside Edition

Waiting for her to return from work that day felt like the longest 8 hours he had ever spent. He went back and forth on how best to deal with the situation.

Maybe it was all just a big misunderstanding or maybe his wife really was betraying him. He wondered if he should find more proof before confronting her. But he had all the proof he needed.

Confrontation

He decided to confront her immediately when she got home. He waited anxiously for her to return home. When she finally came home, he just stood there shaking.

With his heart pounding, and eyes tearing, he spoke to her through clenched teeth. He told her what he had seen and asked her what she had been doing.

Emotional State

YouTube/Inside Edition

Donna was shocked to see John in such an emotional state. When she asked him what was going on he explained everything. Donna was speechless.

“What has gotten into you?”, she spat. “Do you really want to know what I was doing? Do you really want to know what caused you to SPY on me?”. Donna reached for her bag.

Work Contract

Reddit

Donna grabbed out an A4 piece of paper from her bag and shoved it into John’s hands. Confused, he looked down. His eyes scoured over the print. He felt his stomach drop.

“Surprise!”, Donna said sarcastically. It was a contract. A work contract. She had just been hired as a pharmacist technician. But it didn’t make sense.

Surprise!

Reddit

“What about the car? What about all the late nights and the makeup and dresses?” John splurted. Donna sighed.

“I was trying to surprise you. I’ve been studying for months to get this promotion. The position was in a new pharmacy in the next town over”. She continued…

Donna was asked to help out at a pharmacy in the next town over. She put on makeup and dressed better to make a good impression because she knew they needed a permanent pharmacist.

She hoped helping out there for a while would put her in a better position when the interview opened up.

Selective Memory

She walked to the car park everyday where her co-worker and friend, Marissa, picked her up and drove to work together.

She told him about this so many times before, but he forgot. When he asked again the last time, she was so annoyed about it that she answered vaguely because she knew he wouldn’t remember.

Relief And Guilt

YouTube/Inside Edition

A wave of relief and guilt washed over John. Suddenly, he remembered. Somewhere in the very dark corners of his mind, he remembered that she said this before.

He couldn’t believe he got it so wrong. What must she think of him? Especially now, knowing that he followed her, even spied on her, to find out something that he actually knew all along. How did she react?

Argument

Reddit

Of course, she was angry with him. She was in shock that he’d go to such lengths to try to catch her out in a lie. She asked him to learn from this and to not do it again. An argument ensued but they eventually worked it out.

Still, she made sure he listened better from now on and he eventually made up for his untrusting behavior. And now?

All’s Well That Ends Well!

Reddit

Since then, their relationship has gotten stronger. Mostly because John pays better attention now. But what do you think?

If your partner did that to you, would you be understanding? Do you think Donna was too understanding with John? Either way, He hasn’t done anything like that since, so we guess all’s well that ends well!
