Ethan
Song suggestion:
Something is wrong right now. In fact, something is wrong with her. The way her eyes look at me, In the confusion, maybe a little in retrospection, which of course, I don't mind, is in a way implying certain fears of mine. Did Grace succeed in playing with her?
"Apparently, hell has frozen!" I remark for without any particularly important reason except I am into finding if Angel is right now with me in this table, or not.
"Yes," she says and looks at me in confusion but not the eerie kind few seconds ago.
"What?" she asks when I don't say anything.
" isn't it?" I act. If she is here she will question the question to make me think over what to answer.
"About what?" Ah, she isn't with me.
"About what I said."
"oh." She cleared her throat and adds, "you are right it, yes thas right."
"You want to add yours to it?"
"What I would add?"
Oh, baby, you have been here the whole fucking time?
"Your support, angel. The support."
She simply nods and I let go of my act. I get my confirmation that Grace has brewed something.
"So, are you comfortable discussing the meeting with me?"
She goes uncomfortable because she knows she has crossed the point where all excuses won't work.
"Ethan."
"Yes, love."
"I want to talk to you about something else first."
"Is it more important than the matters about Grace's meeting that we need to reschedule it our former pending issue? Again." I sound annoyed.
"I guess, it is."
"Okay then. Shoot me." I pick up the cutlery to channel my anger to it. It seems to work as I put the salad in my mouth, the chewing process has absorbed the anger well.
"What happens if you lose the chairman's designation?"
What the fuck!
"I won't."
"If you do will you be in debts so high to pull yourself up as you won't be in the board of members too?"
"So it all because you are afraid of going down with me?"
"no, I am afraid of catching myself in crossfires or maybe being a shoulder for a gun?"
"That's a ridiculous thing to imply Angel. Maybe we should first discuss what Grace put in your head which you have been siding for a week now. "
She remains silent.
"What did she say?"
"She says that you have a secret that you are hiding from me that can break our marriage."
