Denial

I wasn't going to tell her I was leaving, I was just going to go, and assume she would work it out.


But she was at the door as I opened it.


We stared at each other for a long moment.


"Look, we both knew this was coming."


She shook her head.


"Do we? Because every time I asked if something was wrong, you denied it. So this should be a surprise to you."


I blinked, figuratively and literally.


"Fine, I lied, happy?"


"Of course not!"


I didn't expect her to force me back inside to work on the relationship.
