He starts coming toward me.
I can't breathe. I'm not supposed to be doing this.
"Leave." I barely hear myself.
He closes his eyes, shakes his head, while he backs me up against the wall. "No. Don't give me that weak crap. Say it like you mean it."

Kevin half-whispers, half-breathes, "Chenera, tell me you don't want me, and I'll go."
