You've planned out having lunch with your boyfriend so you visit him at work. He forgot and you ended up finding that he has a "work wife". Written by /u/jayhasapen on Reddit
Oh, hey, babe. What are you doing here? Oh, oh, you did? I totally forgot we're supposed to have lunch together.
I'm so sorry, love. I already told Selene that we would get lunch together. Oh, see, she's coming right now.
Hey, Selene. Oh, who is this? She's just my girlfriend.
Oh, babe, relax. Work wife is just a little title she calls us. Right, Selene? See, don't be so sensitive.
Oh, her holding my hand? Ah, she's just being friendly, you know? Could you stop being so harsh towards Selene? You're sounding mean right now.
Oh, Selene, you must be uncomfortable. I am so sorry about this. Babe, what would make you uncomfortable? You're being insecure right now.
I am with you. Can't I have any friends? Please be civil, OK? People are staring.
Just go home. We can talk about this later. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Selene and I have an hour break, and this back and forth is making us late. We have to get a space at that cafe down the street. Huh? Yeah, yeah, the new one.
What's the issue do you have now? Ah, we were supposed to go together, I don't remember. Two weeks ago.
Well, Selene asked me a month before, and she really wanted to go. Plus, she asked first, and I already told her yes. I mean, what type of man would I be if I went back on my word, hmm? Ah, you keep saying this.
Of course, I know you're my girlfriend. I'll take you somewhere else. The places open up, like, what, every other week? You'll be fine.
Hey, Selene, love, you can head to the car. Here you go. Yeah, yeah, I'll catch up.
I can't believe you're causing a scene. Look, we'll talk when I get home. I mean, it's your day off.
Call some friends and go out. I only have my lunch break. I mean, don't you think it's a little selfish wasting all my time arguing over something so petty? Yeah, you should really think about that.
I, um, anyway, I'm going. Go do something fun, okay? Hey, honey, I'm home.
Um, sweetie? Where are you, and why are so many lights off, hmm? Oh, Jesus, you frighten me.
Oh, um, you were, um, sitting on the couch this whole time? Oh, why didn't you answer? Oh, wait, don't tell me.
Is this some silent treatment for this evening? Are you serious? You're not going to talk to me tonight? Apologize? Apologize for what? How could I embarrass you when you were bombarding me with questions to cause a scene? Me? Disrespectful? Oh, I mean, Selene is my co-worker.
How is work-wife inappropriate? Who am I with her or you? No, actually, tell me what I don't see.
Is this how we're going to be? Oh, please, tell me how I have wronged you. Oh, so now you're walking away.
I mean, where are you going at this time? Your friend's house? Cafe? What friend? Come on.
Why are you upset? Is it because of the cafe thing? I told you we could go to another one.
Even better than where you wanted to go. No, that's not the point. So the whole issue lies with Selene.
Wow. My attitude? I'm the one with attitude.
I literally did not insult you. I'm not telling you how you feel. I'm telling you what happened, and I didn't do all that, okay? Oh, you're actually leaving right now, in the middle of the night? You're uncomfortable with me? Babe, seriously.
Look, listen, let's just have a simple conversation about-.
