The moment Kimberly walked away from me, my rage became unbearable.
I stood frozen in the hallway, my fists clenched so tightly that my nails dug into my palms.
Her words echoed in my mind, each one like a slap to the face.
She had the nerve to talk back to me, to defy me, as if she had any right.
My jaw tightened, and my chest heaved with every ragged breath. The Kimberly I had come to know, The one who kept her head down and didn’t dare to question me was gone.
The woman who had stood before me moments ago had fire in her eyes, and venom in her voice.
And all of it was directed at me.
The Kimberly I had met years ago had surfaced. Could it be that I didn't succeed in breaking her?
I ran a hand through my hair, the sharp sting of her words replaying over and over.
