"You're crazy! Has she placed a spell on you?” Yvette felt dizzy and overwhelmed.
"I mean everything I'm saying now. She can live without me, but I can't live without her. Mom, there's n o need for you to waste your time..."
Mark then turned to Summer and straightened her clothes. "It's cold here. You better go up now." His voice was soft instead of stiff and firm.
Summer looked at Yvette, frowning, trying to say something, but he stopped her. "It's okay."
Summer nodded. Without saying anything, she turned around and went upstairs.
"Where are you going? Did I say you can leave?" Yvette refused to let go, lifting her foot in an attempt to catch up to Summer.
Mark grabbed Yvette’s wrist with his big hand and forcefully dragged her to the car. He pulled her by the hand and made her sit in the back seat.
"I'm not finished! How can you let her go when I haven’t finished speaking?" Yvette refused to sit down quietly in the back seat.
The car was moving fast, and Mark was sitting next to her. It was his mother, after all, and he did not want to
push her too hard.
"When are you going to be okay with me and her?"
"She can’t be with you. I could never agree to that. She put your father in jail. I will not approve of your relationship!"
