The Woman From Hell

Theo's worried voice sounded from outside the door.

I did not really want to respond to him at this moment, but I had to, "I'm fine. I'm taking a shower now."

With that said, I turned on the shower.

I heard nothing more from outside the door with the shower, and silence returned.

I admitted that I was being hypocritical. I was just sulking here even when nothing had been decided, but I also had my reasons. I was furious with Theo's dishonesty. Why did he not explain if it was nothing?

Yet no matter how much I thought about it, I could not think of anything that required the two of them to be alone with one another. Was it a partnership proposal?

What was it about a partnership that could not be discussed, though?

My mind was in shambles. I did not want to think about this anymore.

Standing under the shower, I tried to wash away all my worries.

Theo was still working on his tablet when I came out. He was smiling with a look of tranquility when he looked at me. I lowered my head and climbed onto the bed. "Go and wash up." "Alright."

He planted a kiss on my forehead, then grabbed his clothes and went to the bathroom.

Theo's back was tall and dark as usual. I turned away after the door closed and looked up at the ceiling, taking in a deep breath.

He must have his reasons for not telling me. It would make him feel bad if I kept pushing.

He would tell me when the time was right.
