Jen recognized the man immediately. It was Matthew Wilkins, the mayor of the town she lived in. Did this mean that she was his wife? At first, Jen wasn't sure how that would be a punishment. But then she remembered that the mayor's wife was a very responsible and upstanding citizen. She was always attending fundraisers and charities. It was something that Jen wasn't accustomed to and rarely had any interest in.
"Dear?" Matthew asked.
"Yes?"
"Do you feel better?"
"Yes, much. Thank you." Jen noted how different she felt when she talked. It wasn't just her voice. It was the way she talked. She talked to Matthew with an air of familiarity, even though she barely knew anything about him, except for the fact that he was the mayor. Also, she talked with articulation and eloquence, something she had never really done before. It must have had something to do with that headset.
