Timmy: What happened to your hands?(Worried.)

Nicko: Nothing Honey. I’m so sorry about last night. I was drunk and I can’t control-----

Timmy: I don’t want to talk about that.

Timmy step back and feeling scared again. She saw Nicko locked the door. She didn’t know what’s on Nicko’s mind.

Nicko: I’m not gonna hurt you. I just want us to talk. Don’t be scared.(Soft voice. Drawing closer.)

Timmy: What are we gonna talk?(Stepping back.)

Nicko: What’s the problem Honey? We’re okay two weeks ago. But you started ignoring me and I don’t know why you’re doing this to me??

Timmy: Why don’t you ask yourself?(Teary eyed.)

Nicko: I don’t know what you’re talking about Honey. If there’s a problem spill it out. Don’t make things hard from me. I can’t take it no more. Speak out Honey. We can’t resolve this if you still keeping a secret. I’m your husband. You shouldn’t keeping secrets. Let’s talk about this. Let’s fix this.

Timmy didn’t answer. She’s just crying.

Nicko: Timmy?? I’m asking you. Speak out.(Really soft voice.)

Timmy: You’ve never change Nicko. You’re a liar.

Nicko: What are you talking about Honey? I don’t get it??(Dumbfounded.)

Timmy: Nothing. Just forget it. I’m just tired. I’m dizzy. I need to rest.

Nicko felt ignored again. She’s making excuses again and trying to escape the questions. It made him angry but he’s trying not to lose control. He clench his fist and lowered down his head. He don’t want to look at his wife and he’s trying to control himself.

I’m your husband but you’re acting like I’m not! Do you think you’re the only one having a hard time? I’m hurt Timmy! I never felt hurt this much before! I’ve never been like this before! You know me! I’ll never beg for someone to talk with. I’m not like this but because I love you and because you’re my wife I’m doing this Timmy.! But you keep ignoring me.

Nicko can’t stop crying. He can’t look straight on her eyes. Timmy can’t say any words. She was really afraid that Nicko will leave him after she ask about what happened two weeks ago. She just cry and cry until she fainted. Nicko catch her and run to the hospital.
