Maybe it is because we have been watching Big Love, maybe it is because I am currently reading the 19th wife, but I have a strange suspicion that Pedram has become a polygamist and adopted a second wife.

The evidence keeps piling up, and I notice that many nights the subject will place itself between me and Pedram, giving me the stare of death to let me know who has my husband’s affection

The potential second wife also plays coy, drawing Pedram away from me and then seducing him with a belly rub

Just take a look at these lusty eyes.

First thing in the morning, and often late at night, they take long, discreet walks together.  Often I am not invited to join.  Rusby, the wife in question, will get considerably more attention.

Occasionally, while sitting on my husband’s lap, I find Rusby staring at me with one eye, the other one pretending to sleep.

That is really creepy.  This might be a very hostile take over.

But that is not the worst part, I have caught them sharing incredibly intimate moments together.  And although when Rusby moved in, we made it clear that we would not be the kissing type, that never stops the second wife from trying.  Warning — this picture might gross you out.

PS – I think Pedram likes it.
