A Tale of Truth, Love, and Redemption (insiders view)

Man, walking away-A Tale of Truth, Love, and Redemption (inside view)




As Mike stands in a dimly lit hotel lobby hotel after receiving the room number his wife is in for the daytime receptionist. Mike a laidback man, stands before a door nervously fidgeting. He adjusts his tie, takes a deep breath, then knocks.


Mike:  I hope she is alone. 


Inside the room, Sarah, Mike’s wife an attractive woman, looks at the door surprised and panicked.


Sarah: Shh! Be quiet someone knocking at the door. Just hide somewhere, please. I will handle this. 


The room door opens. Sarah wearing a nervous smile. Behind her, visible to Mike, Nelson, a tall man is hastily zipping his pants up.


Mike:  Sarah? What’s…What the heck is going on here?


Sarah: Mike...I, um...this isn't what it looks like.


Nelson: Hey, man. I'm Nelson. With a smile on his face. 


Mike: I’m not shaking your hand Nelson... right. Is this your... ahem... line of work then? 


Nelson: (Scratching the back of his head) You can say that.


Mike: Well, you don’t seem to look like a 'professional.' 


Sarah interjects 


Sarah: Mike, please let's talk. 


Mike: Oh, now you want to talk? 


Sarah: I didn't mean for this to happen, I…


Mike: Save it, Sarah. 


Mike walks away from the room, leaving a guilty Sarah and a bewildered Jim behind.
