Tutalos Patrick a moment to respond and when he does, he chet for the empty soda can on his side of the table. 

“My ex wife’s name is Angela ” 

“That’s actually such a nice name, I say to him. 

“reah,” he says, squeezing the can of soda as he stares down at the 

void twists his face in anger. 

“Hey, me you okay?” Hean forward, my voice faced with concern.

“Why do you say that?” He looks up at me with the same angry intensity in has eyes 

“Look at what you’re dom” I point at the crushed soda can in his hand and when he looks down at it, he chuckles. “Oh, I didn’t realize it. I was just thinking about Angela. She put me through so much. She still is. It’ll all be worth it after everything falls into place. Enough about me. Let’s talk about you.” 

With the locus now on me, and because I want to help distract him, I end up talking about my plans to establish my own businesses. 

“Wow, your husband must be so proud,” he says. 

“He is. He’s actually going to be helping me with it” 

Just talking about Dominic makes me anticipate his return, which has to be today. I still can’t believe he asked, but I’m glad because I’ll be 

waiting for him 

“Is there something interesting on your mind?” Patrick asks, breaking my concentration. 

“Not really” clear my throat. 

“That’s hard to believe, you’re obviously thinking about your husband again.” He gives me a half smile 

“I guess I’m being too obvious now.” I sigh, deciding to embrace it. “Well, what can I say? I’m just so happy“. 

“I’m glad you are.” His half smile fades, 

I don’t know what’s wrong with him, but something feels off about him. His demeanor wasn’t like this when I met him by the sidewalk or when we sat down at this table. Is this all because of Angela? 

Spending time with Jake turns out to be a little fun and also extremely dangerous. I thought he was just taking me for a ride in one of the cars he wanted to show off, but it’s not just a normal ride. He’s drifting and I can’t believe he didn’t warn me about it. 

The entire time, I keep screaming and holding onto the sides of my seat, scared that I’ll be ejected from my seat even with my seatbelt on 

No matter how much I scream in fear, he only seems to enjoy it as he keeps cheering with a grin.

Just as i lay down to wait, lightning strikes several times as the downpour gets heavier and it goes on until 11pm. He’s still not yet back 

Looking at how much time has passed, I stand by my closed window, beginning to accept the fact that he won’t be back tonight, it’s not possible with the current weather outside. He must’ve stopped somewhere to wait until it’s safe to drive
