"Were you the one who did it? Tell me." He yelled at me with different emotions swirling in his eyes.
"Yes. I've been the reason why we're here. I am behind all of this." I lied. Tears threatened to spill out from my eyes.
------------
"I need her back. She cannot leave me. Mayla Please Come Back" I said with guilt flowing in my veins.

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused.
