---- Chapter 4 Challenge Only half a month left until I set off for my new journey. I rented a tiny apartment near home and settled down. I was going to find someplace farther away, but my leg wasn't working well enough, and staying close made commuting easy. The day after I moved in, Lorelei came demanding answers. She tossed the divorce papers at me. "What are you doing this time? Seriously? Threatening me with divorce?" I watched her go on a tirade, and then I felt sorry for the old me. My lack of attention on Lorelei made her hysterical, and she started crying. "If you're getting a divorce, I'll kill myself!" What a poor act. I tore through her coldly, "You don't have the guts. If you're gone, no one's going to take care of precious widdle Felix." That hit her where it hurt. She jabbed a finger at me ---- and roared, "You bastard! I am your wife! You can't say that to me! I-I'll kill myself!" "That is enough!" I threw my cup to the ground. "You know full well I hit the bullseye. If you don't stop right now, I'm telling everyone what you did with Felix!" That scared her. She stopped crying on command and looked at me dumbly. "I-I'm not signing the papers!" And she stumbled off. Frustrated, I put my hand against my forehead. Christ, she could be persistent if she wanted to. I never knew that. No, Lorelei didn't come back after that day, though she would 'accidentally' pass by my place and see if someone was inside. Ihad no choice but to lock my door every time I came home. I thought Lorelei would start another scene, but Felix showed up instead. He sank into his seat, still keeping up his patient act. 1 couldn't even get a word in, and he was already starting to cough violently. "Jon, Lorelei didn't mean ---- it. Don't get mad at her, especially not on my account. " I really did not want to see this act drag on any longer, and I shot straight, "Enough. Lorelei's still at work. She can't see this... act of yours, so might as well drop it." Ahint of awkwardness flickered on Felix's face, then he sat up straighter. "Fine, then I'll cut to the chase. Lorelei and I are in love. You should back off if you're smart." larched an eyebrow. "If you two are so in love, then why aren't you a couple already? Because the love doesn't run deep enough yet?" Felix stiffened up. "Don't even try to drive a wedge between us! I had my reasons for leaving!" "Don't make it sound like it's my fault. If you really love her, then throw a grand wedding for her and make her your bride. Oh, wait, I forgot. She's my wife! " He slammed the table and shot up from his seat. ---- Pointing at me, he growled, "This isn't over, Jonathan! I'll marry Lorelei sooner or later!" I didn't really care about that, and I shrugged. "Sure, whatever."
