Chapter 136: Because He Wore a Tie?

The elevator could get me upstairs faster, but I need the stairs to help calm down so I don't physically harm Ryland as he follows behind me. It doesn't work. Being tired from walking only serves to make me more pissed. My body vibrates with emotions. If I wasn't clenching my fists so hard, they'd probably shake.

For the first two flights of stairs, I work on ways I'll address his shitty behavior in a calm and rational way. By the third floor, my feelings bubble over and I lose my control.

"What the fuck was that, Ryland?" I'm yelling, but there isn't a better volume to figure out what the hell he's thinking.

Ryland keeps walking. "You like a guy to dress that way?" After all the male posturing I had to witness, that's what he focuses on?

He finally stops walking and I push on his chest... well the top of his stomach because he's a tall, stupid idiot. "Are you really that insecure you're bothered because Cody wore a tie?"
