Overwhelming Emotions

"Maybe I did something wrong" Hera voiced out to Mariam worriedly, she massaged her hands nervously with slightly furrowed brows.

"And what exactly did you do?" The older woman inquired expectantly. She had been with her ever since they got back from the game. Hera has been in a black mood and she didn't know how to console the little woman. She had wanted to sympathize with her but how could she do that when she doesn't even know what could've caused the problem in the first place.

All Hera did was sign occasionally and blame herself ever since she got back. She had refused to disclose what must've happened at the game.

Did they fight or was it worse than what she might be thinking?

"I won't know how to help you if I don't know what's wrong Hera." Mariam held her hands and squeezed gently "So if it's that big of a problem then you might want to tell me first. What's wrong?"

"I don't know..." She trailed off, her eyes downcast as she gazed at the floor instead of the woman's face. She was too embarrassed. Why was he mad at her? As far as she could remember, she didn't say or do anything wrong or did she?

"I think that Bryce is upset with me."

The older woman straightened herself to listen attentively "What do you mean by he's upset with you? Did you do something wrong?"

"That's what I don't know." She cried out in utter frustration. "The game went fine and his favourite team won the match so I don't understand why he suddenly snapped at me."

Mariam tilted her head as though she was lost in thoughts. Even she was confused so how was she going to help her out now.

"When did he start giving you the cold shoulder?"

Hera went silent for a while before responding "I remember that I had gone to use the bathroom after the game so I waited for him to come and pick me up but before then, I almost tripped and someone caught me from falling down and we chatted for a while. That's when Bryce came and his mood changed after that. He became upset and refused to talk to me till he dropped me off."

Mariam smiled. Her brain finally being able to process that the real issue was at the moment.

Her boss was jealous. If Hera was saying the truth which she knew it was because she doesn't lie then that's the only sensible explanation that she could come up with. He was jealous to the bone.
