—-"I will strip away all that you know; all that you love, until you have no shelter but me."——

"Look at me." I plead with her.

"Not like this. Not right now. Maybe not ever." She keeps her gaze on the horizon.

"Please. Don't make me do anything rash."

"I'm not making you do anything."

"Why won't you look at me? I did all of this for you. Only you."

"You killed him! You were so caught up in your own jealous rage, that you couldn't think straight. You would have killed everyone if I hadn't interfered. I don't trust you. I don't feel safe."

"You're safe. I swear. Let me be your rock again. Please."

"No never again will I let you guard me. You are no longer my rock."

My eyes clouded over with rage. How dare she speak to me like that. After all I did for her. After all I did.

"Fine but know this: I will strip away all that you know; all that you love, until you have no shelter but me."

"This is what I get for loving you then?"
