16-Questioning
Niles sighed deeply, listening to his estranged wife shouting and belittling him through his tiny cell phone. He'd heard it all before of course, but today it hurt even more than usual and he just couldn't take it anymore.
"Maris, I'm not going to listen to this any longer! I meant what I said, and that's final!"
There was a pause and then he spoke again. "I don't like this line of questioning! I'm not just anyone, I'm your husband!"
The line went dead and tears stung his eyes. He sighed at the feeling of Daphne's comforting arms around him.
