The Power Outage

Summary

The power suddenly went out on our wedding night. My wife, claiming she was drunk and disoriented, accidentally wandered into my cousin's bedroom.

When we woke up the next morning, we heard a scream coming from his room.

Still half-asleep, we rushed over. What we saw was my wife and my cousin, completely naked, hiding under his duvet.

Everyone was shocked. It was painfully obvious what had happened between them.

My mother, terrified of a public scandal, pulled me aside and begged me to swallow my pride and endure it.
