Bruce walked up to his neighbor's door, not to meet with his friend and neighbor Jack, but to talk to his wife. He knew that Jack was not home, so it was a good time to talk to Mary, Jack's wife. He reluctantly rang the doorbell and shortly after, he heard a voice yelling for him to come in. He opened the front door and came into the house. He walked through the main hallway to the family room.

The Lemanns: Jeff and Wendy Lemann had been married for nine years. Both were 33 years old and both had worked for the same corporation, Hamilton Electronics, for the last eight years. Although employed by the same firm, their job responsibilities were very different, and consequently, they worked in different divisions of the firm. As a group leader, she was two levels below Jeff in pay grade and responsibility. Even so, she had a substantial amount of administrative and technical responsibility, and, therefore, commanded an excellent salary not much below that of her husband. With no children as yet, and having made excellent investments, the Lemann's had no financial problems and were well on their way to becoming independently wealthy. Best of all, they both loved their job.
How do I begin? At the beginning, I suppose, but first some comments. This is not a bizarre story of unleashed sadistic sex. It cannot compare with some of the stories written and posted here and elsewhere. This is very mild compared to those stories. But it happened.
I returned from a month-long business trip a week early. The customer was ecstatic with the early go-live schedule, and my bosses were so happy that the customer so impressed with the implementation of our product that they had given me the extra week off. In the rush to get back home, I had forgotten my cell phone in the hotel, so I couldn't call my wife to let her know I was on my way home early, which was fine, since I wanted to surprise her anyway. I had decided that we could take the week as a spur-of-the-moment vacation. I got to my house around 9 pm. As I walked in the door, I found something very odd. My wife was usually a very tidy person, but I noticed some clothes lying on the floor. I made my way back to our bedroom, concerned that perhaps Karen wasn't feeling well.
