Rebecca shook off Jeffrey’s hand, not saying a single word as she marched upstairs. Thinking about all the things he’d said, anxiety gnawed at her. She was worried that Jaffrey would really snap and do something reckless.

That worry had barely taken root when Amelia and Jessica’s warnings echoed in her head: Jeffrey’s only after her–so long as she didn’t turn around and react, he would lose it for a bit and then let it go.

Rebecca thought, ‘But will he really just let it go?‘

Stuck battling those two voices in her head, Rebecca spent a torturous hour just trying to stay calm.

In all five years they’d been married, Jeffrey had never once truly flipped out at Rebecca. Lately, his behavior had been downright awful, but that was just him being a mess–not actually angry.

She honestly had no clue what he’d do if he really blew up or how scary that side of him might be.

As Rebecca wrestled with her thoughts, a knock sounded at the door.

Jeffrey’s voice sounded from outside the door, saying, “Samuel’s inside the complex. He’ll be here in a few minutes.”

Rebecca opened the door, brushed past him, and didn’t even look his way.

Jeffrey walked alongside Rebecca, trying to make peace. He said, “I was just worried you’d leave without saying goodbye. I didn’t mean to freak you out.”

Rebecca didn’t say a word. She grumbled inwardly, ‘If I actually said goodbye, would he even let me leave?‘

Jeffrey took her hand and said, “If you’re mad, go ahead and take it out on me. Keeping it inside isn’t good for you.”

Rebecca stopped abruptly and turned to him. She said, “Don’t you think you’re being pretty fake right now?”

Jeffrey raised an eyebrow.

Rebecca said, “If you honestly cared about me, you wouldn’t keep giving me reasons to be pissed off.” If it were up to her, she’d just end things peacefully and walk away.

Jeffrey shot back, “Oh, really? And you’re any different?”

Rebecca, still bristling, fired back, “Me? What exactly are you accusing me of?”

Jeffrey said, “So which of your words are the real ones, huh? You keep claiming you won’t leave, but is that really what you think deep down?”

The atmosphere instantly turned icy, the tension nearly palpable between them. They faced each other in silence, neither willing to break the standoff.
