Well this morning, H left at 8:30am to go do some work on the Parkside property. Gotta get it ready for rental.
I had to do a few errands later in the morning and dropped by to grab some oranges off of our tree there. Just before I left, I said to H something about what we should do in regard to a certain company (who shall remain nameless) and any inquiry by them as to why our house is near empty. I'm not trying to be mysterious here, I just don't want to divulge details.
Anyway, H looks at me and says "I've been thinking about that, and I think that we can just say to anyone who asks, that we've seperated and it's just me living here now." Okay, if you know my history, you'll know why this did not sit well with me.
I said nothing and tried to keep my face from telling on me. He quickly added "I knew you wouldn't like that!".
Oh really...then why the hell did you say it!? And no...I did not say that outloud.
I lightly chuckled to cover up my mounting displeasure and politely volleyed back "I just think that we could come up with another reason". He dropped back, "Yea, sure...it was just in case anyone asks."
As we kissed goodbye, he scrunched up his face and asked "Are you okay?" I popped on a relaxed smile and said "Sure". "Well, you just look a little "mousey" he spewed, returning his shot into the net. I don't like "mousey", it's not a nice word coming from him.
As I got into the car, I watched my H who was crossing in front of my field of vision and clearly making some sort of face, as if he was reacting to some imaginary person who had thrown a pie at him.
So apparently, I had offended him for not being thrilled over his suggestion.
How dare I be so insensitive to his feelings after all he's done this past year. Eeerrrgh...
As you can see, I'm just a tad bit irritated.
Is he that insensitive? Did he feel annoyed by his own stupidity? Or does it irk him to realize that there is, and may be for some time to come, a persistant lesion that his betrayal has created?
