My eyes are blazing with anger and fixed on her as she touches her cheek while facing the other side. At this moment, I have no regrets.

“Then go outside and pick it up.”

“But-”

“Babe, I’m not going to repeat myself. Once you have it, bring it back here.”

“This is bullshit! She fucking slapped me and you’ll just let it go?

Now, hurry up. I’ll be watching you through the window.”
