He Cannot Leave

"It's fine then," Jerlina shrugged. "I'll go change first," she turned to go to her room. 

Her hands started to shake and tears clouded her eyes. 

She could see that Jeremy is getting mad about it and wants to not discuss it further. She wanted to let it go but she couldn't.

But she didn't want to anger him further. And she is not someone who'd reply word for word with someone who gets mad. So she decided not to pursue it. 

But... 

"Joel..." she looked back. "Talk to me if you find any of my behavior unacceptable. We can deal with it... If you think I am too motherly or controlling or careless..." she took in a deep breath seeing him staring back at her as if she was speaking a different language. 

"Just be open, alright?" she said and walked inside her room. 

Jeremy watched her leave. She appeared shorter than usual and her voice was so soft that he barely heard it. He felt ashamed for shouting at her.
