What I Imagined in the Gym Jacuzzi
I thought I had the jacuzzi to myself. With two guys watching me from the sauna, my imagination ran wild and my hands kept pace.

I shut the bathroom door, let the uniform fall to the floor, and knew I wouldn’t be able to think about anything else that afternoon but his hands.
It was an April afternoon. I went out without a bra and in a tiny thong. I had no idea my husband would stop at the abandoned gas station and do that to me.
I woke up with my head about to explode. Beside me slept a woman who wasn’t just my wife, and I couldn’t remember a thing about how I got there.
Two beeps, a lit screen, and his wife’s voice filling the garden: “Everything that’s happening to me… everyone needs to know this.”
I asked him to imagine my hand on his thigh. I didn’t expect to feel his trembling under mine, or for the trance to become mine too.
The doorbell rang after two. I was still wearing the wrinkled shirt from the party, and he walked in smiling as if he’d known me all his life.
She wore a dress she’d never have worn in front of my son, and after the second glass of wine she told me she preferred mature men in bed.
The Polaroid hung from my neck when she appeared under the threshold, barefoot and smiling, escorted by two men I didn’t know at all.
I kept their numbers in the drawer and knew I would never call. But I also knew my husband would never touch me the way he had before that night at sea.
I couldn’t tell whether what I felt was jealousy or arousal. Probably both at once, and that frightened me more than anything else.
Santiago walked into the classroom that Monday in that fitted shirt and with a deep voice that raised goosebumps on my skin from the first word he spoke.
I brought wine to his room at eleven at night under the pretense that I couldn’t sleep. We both knew it was a lie, but neither of us said it out loud.
Her husband sent reminders, never messages for her. The night watchman looked at her as if she were real. One night was enough to change everything.
The bet was simple: the boldest costume wins. What Sonia didn’t expect was for Vera to walk out of her room wearing nothing but a bow and a smile.
I went to the gym without underwear on purpose, so everything would show. After weeks of stares, he finally came over with a proposition that left no room for doubt.
Diego knew exactly which button to push. Two years without seeing him, a message at one in the morning, and I was already in a taxi crossing the city.
For years he treated other people’s minds without being able to get close to anyone. Then the doll arrived—and with it, the obsession that would consume him.
She had spent centuries in the shadows without desiring anything. But when she saw me alone in the library, something in her changed forever.
It started with a story I read at midnight. Then came the messages, the confessions in the dark, and a voice on the other end that knew exactly what to say.
