For the first time

"Are you kidding me?" Adis asked in a dangerously calm manner. However, he didn't wait for Haru's reply and continued, "Yeah, I knew you're just kidding me. 'Cause there's no fuckin' way that you're going to leave me again just to help that bastard, right?"

"Adis, it's not about him--"

"Right?" He insisted, ignoring her attempt to explain. His eyes became fierce and he had a look that would not accept any form of objection. He gripped her shoulders and dug his fingers on her flesh.

"Tell me that I am right." He slowly uttered every word through his clenched teeth, wishing that she would relieve his insecurities.

She gulped as her breath seemed to have stuck in her throat. She knew that her husband was vicious, but it was the first time that Adis talked to her like he wanted to eat her head off.
