“Don’t you walk out on me!” Amy screamed at Oliver.

Oliver turned round and faced Amy.

“Why not? What excuse have you got this time, so that you can make me stay and talk?”, Oliver replied, with a quizzical look in his eyes.

“Really? Oliver, you have done things that have betrayed me!”, Amy began to say.

“Seriously, I don’t think so!” Oliver replied.

“Don’t lie! What about Mary?”, Amy shouted back.

“What about her? I told you that she and I had a year-long relationship after we broke up the first time round”, Oliver explained.

“What? So you think there’s nothing more to add about your relationship with Mary?”, Amy asked Oliver.

“I can’t talk about her now!” Oliver replied and turned back round to face the front door and opened it.

“What the hell is wrong with you, Oliver! Why can’t you be honest with me and tell me about your flesh and blood! Your own children!” Amy blurted out, as she couldn’t take the lies any more.

Oliver froze for a split second, and then closed the front door. Oliver turned himself back around and faced Amy again.
