Big and Bullied: The Rejected Mate

Chapter 6: Confrontation

Penelope knew that she needed to talk with her boyfriend, Aiden, about how he was treating her. She had every intention of having that conversation as soon as possible. She pursued him until she found him by the lake, where he sat alone and stared at the water. She approached him and asked him what was wrong.

As she made her way toward him, she called out to him with a "Hey" as she got closer to him as she made her way toward him.

When Aiden looked up, he scowled at you while looking in your direction. He did this while he was looking at you. "Can you be more specific about what you're looking for?"

Penelope approached the other individual and said, "I want to talk to you," as she got closer and approached them.

She told them, "There is a problem with how you've been treating me, and we need to have a conversation about it because it needs to be addressed," You said that the conversation was necessary because the issue needed to be addressed.

Aiden got to his feet once he had his bearings again, crossed his arms over his chest, and continued walking forward while he did so. "If it's not too much trouble, could you explain what you're discussing more?"

Penelope tried to speak calmly and collectively, saying, "You completely understand what it is that I'm talking about." "You have an excellent comprehension of what I am referring to." "You've been bullying me just like everyone else."

Aiden expressed his frustration with the situation by rolling his eyes. "There is no justification for you to feel threatened or afraid of me in any way, shape, or form."

All of this time, I've been doing nothing but working on ways to make you stronger. I will not rest until I succeed. "You must develop a more resilient and stoic demeanor."

Penelope's tone and voice changed to reflect an increased level of assurance as her assertiveness increased when she said, "I don't need you to toughen me up."

This change in Penelope's tone and voice happened at the same time that she became more assertive. "I am counting on you to support me and respect who I am."

I depend on you. I am confident that you will be able to accomplish that. I rely on you. I understood that you were supposed to be my partner; however, as of late, you've been acting more like my competitor than ever. This surprised me because I thought we were supposed to be working together. This is a complete surprise, as I thought we would be working together.

Aiden's image changed in a very nuanced and subtle way. At that exact moment, he said "I'm sorry" to himself in a way that other people could hear.

"Because I was completely oblivious to the fact that my actions were making you feel such a high level of discomfort, I had no idea that my actions were causing you to feel that way." My only wish for you has always been that you would have the same level of resilience as I do. "I hope that someday that wish will come true."

Remember that Penelope is the one who declared, "I am a powerful person," so you should consider her words.

"I have no choice but to keep to myself because of being subjected to a great deal of hostility and having that hostility directed toward me. As a consequence of this, I have consequently developed the personality trait of an introvert. On the other hand, that does not imply that I am obligated to take it away from you because it does not imply that I am required to do so. After all, it does not imply that I am required to take it away. That can't possibly be the best possible resolution to come out of this mess for me to choose."

Aiden shifted his focus to examine the topography of the ground below him. When I questioned him, he said, "You are completely correct in every aspect."

"I will give it my all and see where it takes me. I have nothing to lose. I just... I was completely stumped when figuring out how to assist you as a companion. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. In all of my years, I have never been put in a situation that even vaguely resembles this one. I find it hard to believe it could ever happen to me."

Penelope exhaled deeply before continuing. "I am conscious of how challenging it will be to accomplish this task. Given that we are all in this together, we are tackling this obstacle to ensure success. To succeed, we must look out for one another and work together as a group."

Aiden nodded. "I understand. I promise that I will make every effort to meet your expectations."

Penelope felt a weight lifted off her shoulders when she finally realized that the problem she had been struggling with had been resolved. She had been dealing with this issue for a long time.

Even though it was not the perfect answer to the problem, it was at least a step in the right direction toward finding a solution to the problem.

She maintained an optimistic outlook even though she was aware of the challenges that were still in front of them and the fact that she knew they would need to overcome those challenges to succeed.
