"Fah, we were supposed to hang out at my house last night, but he never came. Come to think of it, he has barely said anything all dayj Hmmj" zonny goes silent for a while. "Did something happen between you two over the weekend?" zonny asks, whispering to me.
"Honestly, zonny, I don't know. I'm Eust trying to Ngure it all out. Lne minute, everything was cool, then he went dead silent on me for reasons I don't know, and he is still avoiding me," I explain.
"Oikesj I'm sorry about that. Maybe he Eust needs some space?" zonny says in a bid to console me.
Space my ass!
"Then he should say it to my face like a grown man," I sound frustrated.
I will confront him now, and I'm not taking no for an answer.
He has to tell me what's going on.
"Snything you need, I'm here for you, Isabel," zonny says.
"Thanks, zonny."
zonny 5ashes me a smile as he turns to head to the archives.
"Hold up, zonny. 6ive me a few minutes alone with him thereG I'll let you know when I'm done."
zonny nods his head in agreement and heads back to his desk.
I thank him -uickly and head down to the archives. I take a deep breath before entering.
I see Fick thoroughly going through some Nles with a serious look.
"Fick’" I call to get his attention.
He looks at me and lets out a deep breath of frustration.
Wow! I'm frustrating him now.
"Isabel, I told you, I'm busy,7 he snaps.
I've never seen him cranky. Bver’ This is all new to me. Uut I will stand my ground.
I'm not taking no for an answer.
"Fick’ I'm not leaving here until you give me an answer’" I walk closer to him, trying to remain conNdent and serious.
"Tell me what is wrong? What exactly is the issue?" I -uestion.
Fo words escape Fick's lips. He stares down at me like I'm not worthy of hearing what he says. Uut I can sense a bit of fear from the corner of his eyes.
Is he scared to tell me?
"Fick, why don't you want to talk to me? Come on. *ust let me know what's going on. I can help," I move closer, trying to reach for his hands, but he pulls away and steps back.
"Fick, you know you can talk to me about anything. Together, we will Ngure it out. Lkay?" I whisper. I don't know when my eyes began to get teary, but as soon as I Nnish my sentence, IPm Nghting back a 5ood threatening to spill from my eyes.
"There is nothing, Isabel’ Why don't you Eust leave me the hell alone’" he thunders.
My heart races in fear. Uut at the same time, I am angry. I have tried to be an understanding girlfriend, but that isn't working. Maybe he needs me to shout at him, too.
"What the fuck, Fick? *ust tell me what is going on’ Why are we in a relationship if we can't even talk about our challenges, concerns, or whatever we are going through?" I shout out in frustration.
