Vic came in from the outside and was quite surprised to see this scene.
He had expected Nathan's return to make up with Crystal.
Crystal was thrown into the bathroom, and her body crashed against the cold porcelain wall.
Nathan hadn't given up yet, even though she had made it so clearly.
He picked up a birdbath and jabbed it into her hand. "Pee."
Crystal held the basin. "Do you want to check, and then you give up and let me go?"
"Now!"
He tugged at her trousers.
Crystal went out today wearing suspenders, and Nathan took off her coat and stripped off her pants.
His action was rude, and he played Crystal, watching his face close to hers. Her lips trembled. In fact, she wanted very much to hug and kiss him.
As soon as she saw him, she saw how haggard he was and how much he had lost.
The thick dark circles under his eyes showed that he had not slept well for days.
