He expected her to come up with some excuses to not agree with him but not this reaction. He was sure she never expected the question to come along. He was instantly upset. He let go of her. And walked to his room. “Make sure the door’s lock when you go out.” And he was out of sight.
She was stunned by his reaction. She didn’t even have time to recover from the question and he walked away. She knows him. This will not be a good time to talk to him. He is angry and upset. The last time it happened, she reacted and they broke up. She’ll just leave him to calm himself before talking to him. She left.
