Sophia's eyes narrowed as she watched her husband remove every piece of clothing from his upper torso before entering the bathroom, however – especially when he removed his underwear last instead of immediately walking towards her naked. She had specifically asked him to do this in advance because she wanted to watch her husband get undressed before joining her, but now she wondered why he had chosen to do otherwise instead. It was almost as though he expected her to look elsewhere while he took off his clothes, but Sophia knew better than to assume that she had any right to demand this particular courtesy from her husband. Regardless, Isaac didn't return to the bedroom afterwards until he had stepped into the tub fully clothed and turned on the faucet above it. After pouring two glasses of orange juice from a pitcher on a table next to it, he sat down across from her at a small breakfast nook set nearby and stared down at his hands for a minute before explaining himself to her.
