And we said our goodbyes after that. Talking to Amit gave me a little patience and courage. And he was right. I needed to confirm all this first. And not be hasty in confrontation, if I wanted my green card and citizenship.
Taking Amit's advice, I decided to make a plan about how to confirm my suspicions. Maybe even get proof. First I had to figure out, if she was doing things like this, who was she doing it with? She had to have a boyfriend or something. Or was it more complicated than that? Multiple guys? Guys who worked for us? Guests? Others?
I decided to take a systematic approach to solving this mystery. I took a diary and in that, listed all the men that she would come in regular contact with. Apart from Pepe, the others who occasionally filled in as desk clerks were all female. The maids were also obviously female. We had one guy who worked part time as a janitor. He came in 2-3 days a week to do cleaning and other stuff that was too physically demanding. His name was Pablo and he was in his fifties, a little slow, and fat. I somehow didn't think that was the kind of guy Apara would choose if she wanted to cheat. I had never seen her be too chatty or flirty with him either.
A likelier option were one of the other transient guys who kept dropping by for a variety of reasons. They were all young, fit, and sturdy men. Things in the motel kept breaking or malfunctioning a lot. So we had plumbers, electricians, other handymen who we would call. I didn't know their names, but knew them by sight. And I had often seen Apara laughing with them, having long chats. I had also noticed they had a roving eye, and would check out Apara shamelessly even if I was around.
And of course, there were the guests. We had a few regulars who stayed with us every other week or so. It could easily be one of them.
The next question was, if she did fool around with any of these men, when did she do it? And for that she had a lot of opportunities. Although we worked very hard and almost every waking hour, we weren't together much. And it was a big motel with a wide layout. At any given time, she could be anywhere, and in any room. And there was no way for me to know unless I dropped whatever I was doing and went hunting for her. Occasionally, she would have to go shopping. The last time, she had appeared on TV chatting with a strangers. Maybe that was an opportunity. Then there were times I had to leave the motel for a few hours on similar chores. That would give her a free run of the entire motel.
And of course, there was sleeping time. That night of room 106 was an exception when we were both sleeping in our apartment. That happened maybe 2-3 days a week. Most days, one of us took the night shift, while the other slept. Given how soundly I slept, I was sure that she could be doing anything when it was her night shift, and I wouldn't know. Or even when I had the night shift and slept in the day time, she could be up to anything.
The more I thought about it, the more it seemed like sleeping time was the best option for her to fool around, which meant it was the best time for me to confirm my suspicions.
So it started. Operation Catch Apara.
