Release Me When The Sun Goes Down - Plot & Excerpts
Rob demanded the instant we walked through the door. So apparently he’d noticed I’d gone out for a while. I wasn’t trying to avoid the question entirely, but I couldn’t help trying to sidestep some of his anger. “Hey, have you been up long?” I smiled, but he wasn’t having any of it. “Answer the question, where have you been!” In one smooth movement, he picked up a vase and hurled it into the wall hard enough to pulverize it, denting the drywall in the process. I guess I chose the wrong way to diffuse that anger, huh? Lee stepped up between us, his hands coming up in a supplicating gesture. “Calm down, amigo,” he said in a soothing drawl, but Rob wouldn’t be calmed. “This is between me and her,” he said, trying to step around him, and Lee stepped with him, blocking his way. “Not when you’re all worked up like this it ain’t.” Rob’s hands balled into fists, and I swear I could hear his knuckles creak from the stress of clenching them. Maggie had gone pale as a ghost, her eyes wide with fright. Things were about to get out of control big time if they both didn’t take a step back.
