Tantrums

Billie Bob Taylor 

"Would have you actually killed yourself if Bobby told you he no longer wanted you?"

"Yes."

I winced slightly which drew attention to me. 

"Bobby, how does this make you feel?" She looked at me with a soft expression. 

"Like I am to blame," I shrugged. 

"Why do you feel like this is your fault?" she frowned. 

"Because I had asked him for space so I could think about everything he had told me. I just needed time alone."

"Benedito, what had you told Bobby about that made him feel the need to kick you out of the house?"

"About my past and my family."

"And Bobby, how did Benedito's past make you feel?"

I chewed on my lower lip before I answered, "It was a lot to digest. I understood it but that was not what made me kick him out."

"What was it?"
