Fighting means you want to connect or reconnect with your partner. When couples fight, they are actually reaching for their partner, seeking to remain connected and secure. Read more about Emotional Connection. Fighting can also mean you have needs that are not being met. Normally, every couple does it but with Janet and me, it was like we were arguing just to feel normal which I know is a stupid thing to do. There was this one time Janet had pushed my button and you want to know what it was over. I'll tell you it was over a pillow. We had gone back to the old house to get some boxes that Janet didn't seem to want to bring. She brought a blanket and her pillow so she and Nova could relax while o search for the box. But in the end, you have to see what this trifling woman said to me.
Toni POV
Guess where I am well I'll tell you at the old house. I have been searching up and down for these boxes and what is Janet doing laying down with Nova playing. After walking around this house for an hour I finally found the box.
"Okay I found it we can go now." Janet looked at me then got up. I went over and tried to grab all the pillows Janet but Janet stopped me.
"No I'll get it just put the boxes in the car and start it we will be there in a minute." That I did put the boxes in the car and started it I guess I'm driving because all of a sudden Janet was getting in the passenger's seat I drove home and before we got there Janet wanted to ask me this.
"Did you bring my pillow?"
"No, I thought you did remember you told me you got it put the boxes in the car."
"No, I meant I got Novas stuff I didn't know you grabbed my pillow too."
"Well, you gonna have to wait because that was dumb of you to not grab your pillow."
"How am I supposed to sleep without my pillow I mean we both have two now I have one all thanks to you." We got home and I grabbed nova taking her into her room getting her ready for bed. I went back and saw Janet sitting on the bed.
"Use my pillow if it means that much to you okay I don't care."
"It's not about the pillow it's about the fact you don't do shit you expect me to do everything and work when are you gonna take care of things around the house." See that did it I couldn't even look at Janet I grabbed my bag the started putting clothes in them.
"You know fuck you Janet if you don't think I do anything for this house then you do it I'm leaving." Janet grabbed my arm turning me around.
"No, we can work it out. We don't leave we stay and talk about it please don't go."
"No, you think you do everything maybe it's time that you start. I'll be at the hotel a couple of miles from here I'll text you what room number I'm in when I get there." I left going into Nova's room telling her I'll be back and kissed her one more time.
2 weeks later
Janet POV
I haven't seen Toni in 2 weeks. She will call to ask about Nova but when I try to start a different conversation she hangs up or tells me it's not the right time. I had to go to the studio but it's been really hard when I have Nova because she wants all my attention. I want to apologize to Toni she does a lot and I was just overreacting because of the whole super bowl thing. Toni was by my side the whole time telling me everything would be okay. I don't know I think I just finally let out my anger just with the wrong person. I got up getting ready and getting Nova ready. I kept calling Toni on our way to the studio because I knew she would have to be there. But she wasn't answering. I walked in and heard Toni singing but I never heard this song.
"Tell me how I love you wins Or how a broken heart can mend Just tell me this is not the end Please, tell me now How the fairy tale begins Or how it was supposed to end Please, tell me that part again Now tell me what's wrong I never meant to hurt you, no, baby, oh Was it the home, the car Or, darling, all those things we thought we needed? Tell me even if it ain't true But, baby, please, don't say we're through"
When Toni was finished she stepped out of the booth looking at me then running out of the room.
"Toni wait please let me apologize." Toni was still trying to leave but I caught up to her pulling her into the bathroom.
"Michelle I'm sorry okay I should have not said that to you. I should have not taken my anger out on what happened to me with you. You do a lot for us the family for the house I never meant anything I said please come back home I miss holding you at night waking up and seeing my beautiful wife laying next to me. Please Michelle come back home." Toni was looking into my eyes like she was making sure I was telling the truth which I was. I was miserable when she left.
"Okay I'll come back but you are on punishment for a month. Now let's go do you can start work." Toni walked out laughing.
"A month you can't do that what am I supposed to do."
"I don't know figure something out." We went back to the studio and I just kept looking at Toni and the unfairness she was giving me. We finished up and went back home and as you should have guessed it Toni has me sleep in the guest room.
