Jealous

The following day, Linhou left work early and drove to Yue's campus. He had already sent her a text message but although it had been delivered and read, she had not responded so he assumed she was on her way to the campus parking lot to meet him. He should have known he would only see her walking over half an hour later, taking a tiny step at a time as if she wanted the walk to last forever, hand in hand with a young man. She was even laughing at something he was saying and having a blast.

He nearly foamed at his mouth in fury. He glared at their intertwined hands and stormed over to them, stopping himself just in time before his anger got out of control. Grabbing her and shoving her into his car would only result in a worse fight than the ones he had with his sister on a daily basis.

"Yue? I came to pick you up." He tried to maintain his calm as he watched the young man protectively step before Yue. He wanted to punch his teeth out.
