"What're you doing here?" Jo asked with disgust as she watched her husband walk through the door the following day.

Kyle walked over to her bed and sat down. Jo couldn't help but notice how he looked like nothing was out of the ordinary. "How are you?" he asked with a tone that could pass for sincere if Jo hadn't known better. "You okay?"

"Why are you here?" Jo asked again, speaking each word slowly and with emphasis. "I don't want you here."

"Jo…I know you're upset," Kyle said calmly.

"Upset?" Jo interrupted with fury. "I'm more than upset…I hate you…just get out before I call the nurse and have security throw you out!"

"You have every right to be mad," Kyle said softly. "I'm sorry you're hurt. I'm sorry things have turned out like this. But Jo…you don't understand everything about this…and I can't explain it to you. I wish I could."

"I don't understand?" Jo snickered. "You know what I do understand? You're a liar. You said you wanted a baby for years knowing we could never have one. You said our family meant the world to you, and now you can't even stand to look at me…even though you know this is not my fault. I didn't deserve this…"

"No…you didn't," Kyle interrupted. "And Jo, I know that. I love you."

Jo shook her head sadly, "No you don't. If you did, you wouldn't have come in here and said you were leaving without giving me any explanation. You wouldn't have fought the paternity test or made me go through the amnio alone. You wouldn't be hiding out at work all the time instead of coming to see me. I know we had problems before the attack…maybe this mess just gave you the excuse you'd been waiting for to leave. And that's fine, but don't sit there and lie and say you love me."

She expected him to argue with her but he didn't, confirming her insistence that their love was a sham. Kyle looked at her and let out a deep sigh, "Did you get the results of the paternity test?" he asked.

"It's not yours," Jo said blatantly. "So you don't have to pretend to care."

Kyle nodded, "Jo, I know…"

"You don't know anything!" Jo shouted. "Just get the hell out and leave me alone."

"I have to leave for a while," Kyle said quickly. "Go out of town. I wanted you to know."

"What about Jamie?" Jo asked anxiously. "What're you going to tell her?"

"I already told her and Mrs. Garrett that I was leaving town on business," Kyle explained. "Mrs. Garrett agreed to watch her until you get released."

"Kyle…" Jo shook her head in confusion. "Why won't you just tell me the truth? Why won't you be honest with me?"

Kyle acted as if he hadn't even heard her. "I wanted to know if you need anything before I leave?"

"What? Are you going to run out now and get me the chocolate chip ice cream I'm craving?" Jo sputtered sarcastically. "I don't need anything from you…ever! I want you out of my life. All I need from you are divorce papers."

Kyle nodded, "Okay," he whispered. "I'll send them. Once I get settled." He stood up and headed toward the door. "Take care," he mumbled as he walked out.

Jo watched him leave and she was more confused than ever. She didn't know what to think; what to feel. She wondered how she could ever have loved him, and deep down she was disgusted with herself because she knew she still did. She felt like a fool and she knew something was terribly wrong. She could sense the danger and it scared her, but since she didn't know the truth about what was happening, she was helpless as well.
