“When have I ever said anything that offended you?”
You look like a whore.
I shoved that comment to the back of my mind and went on, “But I have a choice, and I choose not to—”
“I haven’t done anything to you.” He puffed up his chest and scowled.
“You’re being disrespectful, and I choose not to give you—”
“You’re always saying I’m being disrespectful.”
“I choose not to—”

“You never let me finish what I’m saying.” I threw my hands up in frustration. “You never let anyone—”
“I’m asking you a question. Why isthatdisrespectful?”
“The way you go about it is rude, and I—”

“Why do you keep fucking repeating that?” he shouted an inch from my face.
I didn’t back down or raise my voice to match. Seff, on the other hand, took a step closer.
“You continually interrupt me with what you think is more important.”
“I...you...that’s just...” Deck sputtered, then shook his head as he glared at me.
I had two choices—stop talking or—finish it.
“Decker, you’ve cussed at me. You’ve called me names. You’ve threatened me, not only verbally, but physically, too.”
