One Hundred Urns

After ten years of marriage, Muriel cheated on me ninety-nine times.

I never divorced her because before our wedding, she bought 100 urns.

"You've always loved rituals. If I'm unfaithful to you after marriage, you can put the evidence in an urn."

"When all 100 boxes are used up, our marriage will be truly dead, and I'll leave with nothing."

Later, she seemed to have forgotten about it.

When she toured Provence with a popular male streamer to see the lavender fields, I put the photos taken by a private investigator into an urn.
