"When were you going to tell me?" Denny explodes.

"About what?"

"Any of it!"

"What is specifically making you the angriest at this moment?" I ask, trying to mitigate the damage.  I only have myself to blame, but perhaps I underestimated my boyfriend's reaction.

"What do you think?"

"Roman."

"Yes, that guy.  Imagine if I carted Liberty here and paraded her in your face."

I want to point out Liberty was more than capable of doing that - sans invitation - but kept my mouth shut.  How could I tell Denny that Roman didn't matter?  That is was only him?
