Dominik looked at the heavy envelope. His hands were trembling. Inside was an explanation, if not complete, at least partial, but it was not an option to look inside. If Andrzej wants to keep secrets from him - fine, but he himself will not be disloyal to the one he loves.
He tossed the envelope on the table. He looked away from her.
Perhaps, however, knowing that Dominik had her before his eyes, Andrzej would tell him the truth himself.
Maybe.
And if not, he will have to swallow the pain and these tears and close his eyes to the lies.
After all, sometimes you have to make ugly compromises to keep your relationship.

Patrycja was wearing three things: white stockings, a cream petticoat trimmed with pale fur and… cat ears. When she entered, she was shyly covering her breasts and vulva. Andrzej, with the camera in his hand, immediately captured it with a lens and captured it in a photo.
"Do not start!" She squeaked. "I'm not ready yet!"
"You are perfect!" He announced taking another photo. "Wonderfully innocent, yet perfectly sexy!"
"Andrzej, stop it! I'm blushing!"
"I know. This is how you look the most beautiful!"
She did blush, but she also smiled. His compliments and not seeing the photographer's face hidden behind the camera gave her some confidence.
But only a bit.
"Don't you think this disguise is stupid?" She looked at the lens.
"Absolutely," he admitted, surprising her. "But that's why it's so cute."
She giggled.
"You know, that's not how I imagined working with you," she announced in a rather serious tone.
"No? How?"
"I thought you were more ... stiff..."
"No dirty jokes on the set!"
"Dir... that's not what I meant! I thought you'd be more serious and cool, a bit like an automaton, and you... are fun and easy going."
"That `s bad?"
"Not at all. I was afraid of these photos, but now..."
Patrycja revealed her breasts and revealed her womb, which was clearly visible through the transparent material of the short garment. She was beautiful, undeniably, and Andrzej had to focus all his will on work so as not to react to her charms.
And she was more and more relaxed and bolder. She changed positions, pulled up the petticoat, dropped the straps... She played with her body, revealing his nakedness. Seductive, very seductive and beautiful. To his utmost amazement, however, Andrzej noticed that, apart from the first flicker of his manhood, he felt no surge of excitement. He had before him an image of pure sex appeal, a woman who had been the object of a fantasy of tens of thousands, including his a few months ago, but now, looking at all her charms, he felt nothing but aesthetic beauty.
Did that mean he turned gay? He became concerned.
When he was Patricia, he imagined Dominik and immediately felt a twitch in his pants. He shook the erotic image out of his subconscious and devoted himself to work. The girl doubled and tripled seductively, as if her gestures and expressions were meant for him, but he felt nothing. And yet it was much less enough for Dominik to pose for him in a white shirt in a hut on the Bug River ...
He shook his head, shaking off intrusive thoughts. When anything erotic was involved that might arouse him, it always took on Dominik's face.
Andrzej had no idea if it was normal, but he knew one thing - it was definitely enjoyable.
He smiled to himself and the model.
"I think that's enough," he said, and put the camera down. "How was it?"
"Freely, though ... something bothers me."
"Yes?"
"I don't know what it's like, it's my first time, but did you ... or I ... didn't you like me?"
She still exuded nudity in her sexy cat disguise. If, despite such a suggestive appearance, she was unable to awaken someone's masculinity, she could lose faith in her femininity.
"I'm a professional," he replied. "I don't mix work with pleasure."
"What if I invite you to bed now? The shooting is over..."
He swallowed loudly.
"Patrycja, I ..."
"You turned me on. I like you from the beginning, but now… It doesn't have to be anything compelling. Two adult people who will have a good time ... Just ... sex ..." She touched her pubic mound and gently moved her hand lower, deeper.
This time his member twitched visibly.
Not every day, an almost completely naked beauty named Patrycja Maj invites a man to bed.
It would be sheer madness to refuse such an invitation.

Dominik waited for Andrzej anxiously. He was late. It is true that he did not say when he would be back, but he wanted to finish the shooting around two p.m., meanwhile, it was almost four p.m. and there was no trace of his car. Moreover, he did not even call that he would be late.
It was the first Saturday since Śliwiński's return from the States and he was looking forward to it. He really missed his man and the hot Monday to Tuesday night was not enough to meet all his needs. When Andrzej told him that he had to do a private job, he sighed and accepted his fate. He said he would use this time to review records from dance competitions. It was even funny until Marczak brought the envelope.
Since Dominik took it in his hands, time conspired against him and Andrzej was late.
Waiting was torture.
Śliwiński knew that there could be a thousand reasons for the delay and it was probably trivial, too unimportant to mention it or even think about it, but the envelope lying on the table suggested that Nowicki might have got involved in something and had trouble.
He heard a car in the driveway and breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, he thought, and wanted to run to meet Andrzej, but he stopped himself. He would have acted like a panicked young lady or a furious wife and he didn't want to. So he went into the kitchen to put on a kettle with water.
"I'm back," he heard from the hall. "Sorry it's so late, but there was an accident, so even the detour was jammed."
"The session was successful?" Dominik asked without looking away.
"Yes I think so. I'll make sure when I look at the photos on my computer."
"But you gotta eat something first?"
"Later. How was your day?"
"Normally. Marek came by. He left an envelope for you."
There was no answer for a long moment. The silence disturbed Dominik.
"For me?" Andrzej seemed surprised.
"It's on the table. Supposedly it's supposed to help you "Fuck some bastard."
Śliwiński did not look towards the living room. He was deliberately looking away from him, but he heard Nowicki coming to the table, opening an envelope and taking papers out of it.
He also heard his short, snorting laugh.
"Something happened?" Dominik asked, seemingly indifferent, but he felt his heart pounding with anxiety.
"Actually, no" Andrzej replied and Dominik felt something painfully crack in him. "Remember when I told you someone accidentally gave me a strong aphrodisiac? Marczak dug up a whole pile of dirt on him."
"This Marek ... knows about this incident?"
"Unfortunately," Nowicki sighed. "I'm not proud of it, but then I called him for help."
"To Marek?" Śliwiński was completely surprised. Andrzej called Marczak ... for help? "I did not think that you became so close to each other ..."
Dominik glanced at Andrzej. He was surprised to find him sitting on the couch with his head down. He had a feeling there was more to his ex-partner and current partner than he thought. He wasn't sure he wanted to know what.
"A few weeks ago, Marczak confessed his love to me..."
"WHAT!!!"
If a bearded, stripped-naked, fat man in a Santa's hat had run before his eyes, Dominik would not have been more surprised.
"I don't think he's serious. I guess he just wanted to check me out, maybe to make us break up and then you would come back to him. I do not know. I think when you left him he understood what he had lost and it was hard for him to bear that awareness. You know how much I hated him, but when you went missing he helped me a lot. Actually, he got it all figured out that we had the help of the police even though there was no official investigation. It's annoying that anytime something is happening, he's somewhere on the side to help. Remember that morning when I didn't come home?"
"Yes…"
"He found me drunk in a bar and put me up for the night."
"Did you ... stay with Marek?"
"Didn't you guess? After all, you spoke to him on the phone back then."
"Yes, but ... Did you guys sleep with each other?!"
"Of course not!" Andrzej assured him, feeling in his mouth disgust at the very thought of such a possibility. "You have an idea After all, I said I never cheated on you."
Dominik blushed ashamed. Yes, it is true, Andrzej assured him of his faithfulness and Śliwiński trusted him, but ...
"What about the aphrodisiac?" he asked shyly.
"I went to a business dinner for J. Acutti about this campaign" Nowicki explained." The materials were in his room, so we went to see them. I didn't expect him to throw something into my water. When the remedy started working, I panicked. I didn't know what to do or who to ask for help. I was to embarrassed to call 112 and I was afraid that Bambus will make a mess… Marczak was always at hand, so I called him. He took me to his place, put me in the shower, and I spent the weekend with him. I was really sick so I just lay in bed taking medication…"
Dominik did not know what to say, how to react. Andrzej's confessions were shocking. How was he to understand the fact that his current lover admits to having spent several nights with his ex-lover who had also confessed his love to him? Andrzej claimed that nothing had happened, but knowing Marek, one could expect everything.
