After meeting Joe at a bookstore, the two of you started dating. Everything was good. Later into your relationship however, you got to know more of who Joe really was. Off, very distant.

The two of you were on the phone talking. You were at home and Joe was at work. Joe went silent for a minute. You called his name out but he didn’t answer, then he finally spoke.

”I want you to know, if I wasn’t about to be late to see you, I would beat this guy bloody for the way he talks about you.”
