Chapter 33 A Meet-up

• Over the following days, as Greg wrestled with his emotions and the complexities of his relationships, Michelle began to quietly hatch a plan of her own. Her irritation with Greg's refusal to engage with her was only the surface of her discontent.
• One evening, after an intense day dealing with Tom Henry’s ongoing health issues and the complicated dynamics with Bethany, Greg returned home to find the atmosphere unusually tense.
• The house was silent, save for the faint hum of the refrigerator and the ticking of the clock in the hallway. Michelle was already at home, her mood colder than usual.
