"Charles, you're acting strange today. Get out! I don't want to see you." Unable to hold back her anger anymore, Nancy kept shouting as she pushed him away.
"You're asking me to leave my own house? I won't leave. This house is mine, and so are you. You are mine, Nancy!" The way he said these words was like declaring his power, which scared Nancy more. She was holding onto her dress so tight that it was hard to breathe.
"Yes, I'm crazy. You pissed me off, big time. How can you treat me like this? It seems like I'm just an insignificant person to you. No matter what I do, you are always indifferent, aren't you? How could there be such a cruel woman like you in the world? Are you a woman? Let me see if you really are a woman.¹' The more Charles spoke, the more aggrieved he became.
"Charles, I'll call the police." At this moment, Nancy really felt disrespected so she had the urge to call the police.
"Can't you talk nicely? Why are you acting like this?" In a hurry, Nancy reached out to grab her phone.
"I just want to bully you, because if I don't bully you, there will be other men bullying you. Don't you like it?" Charles was so angry that he almost lost his mind. He didn't know what he was talking about.
Looking at Charles who was not in his right mind, Nancy wondered what was happening to him. She tried to refuse but her strength was nothing compared to Charles'.
The Charles in front of her was completely different from the person who had always been gentle to her before. His eyes were red; he was like an angry beast ready to attack anytime.
The strange feeling was so strong that it seemed to tear Nancy in half.
"I hate you, Charles." Afraid of being heard by the children, Nancy could only speak in a low voice even though she wanted to scream.
"Is Daddy hurting Mommy? Shall we go?" From time to time, Nadia was throwing glances at the bedroom door.
It was obvious that she was worried, but Bobby remained silent and didn't answer her.
So, Nadia didn't dare to move, and just fiddled with the building blocks with her little hands.
Just like her, Bobby was also a little worried.
But he didn’t believe that his father would fight his mother because he had seen how restless he had been during the days his mom disappeared.
His Daddy loved his Mommy so much. How could his father have the heart to hurt her?
Seconds had passed, and Nadia couldn't stand it anymore. "I'm going to protect Mommy." When she was about to go to the bedroom, Bobby quickly stopped her.
"No, Nadia." His hand was holding her arm to stop her.
"Why?" Confusion was written all over Nadia's face.
After thinking for a while, Bobby replied, "Daddy and Mommy are both adults. They have their own ways to deal with things. If we go there at this time, wouldn't it only cause more trouble?"
"Then what should we do?" Helpless, Nadia withdrew her arm and rubbed her hands.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute..." said Bobby.
With a sigh, Nadia sat back again. "There are so many troubles in the world of adults. I don't want to grow up at all. Do you want to grow up?"
Upon hearing this, Bobby smiled widely, revealing his perfect set of teeth. "I want to grow up, because there are not only many troubles in the world of adults, but also wonderful things."
What Bobby said made Nadia curious in an instant. "Tell me, what is the wonderful thing about being adult?"
