10. Stranger
He's still sitting there when she returns. Pursing her lips defiantly, she walks straight past him, heading for the bedroom. He stands, follows her.
"Where were you?" he asks.
She doesn't bother lying. "With Kahika. And Grace."
He exhales in frustration. "Kim, I've told you to keep away. The family is none of your concern. You can't keep involving yourself in their affairs, and you certainly can't use this to get back at me."
"You flatter yourself," she spits, "I'm not."
He stares at the wood as she slams the door in his face.
He lives with a total stranger.
A/N: More angst.
