He looked up to me with confusion. He slowly got out of his chair and made his way to me. "What do you mean?" He asked. "Well you only did it because I looked at someone. Why was that a bad thing? You think you own me and that is not true." I backed up from him but he followed. I got all the way to the door and he blocked me in with his arms. This is not good. "What if I don't want to stop?"
