(going out with her and maybe having lunch with her?) I have noted this as she has grown fond of me during the little time I have spent with her.

My husband divided the days for intercourse. 1 day with me and second day with 2nd wife. Husband does intercourse under the blanket with me on my day and with second wife on 2nd day. During her turn I always watched them over blanket but can not see their body because they were under the blanket.
Another problem is that our husband orders us that me and 2nd wife wrap the towel from naval to knee during house chores in the presence of husband.
