looked up right away and refused, “No. I want to go out alone. I feel suffocated when you’re around ”
His brows forrowed right away. “It’seither you come with me, or you stay home.”
He was strict on this matter Lately, he pretty much said yes to everything I asked for. No matter what I said or did, he went along with it.
Other than not letting me leave the house, he did everything I asked for. Even Alicia barely showed up in front of me.
