"I am worried," she retorts, so quickly she surprises herself. Maybe this has been coming for a while now - scared of the idea that he doesn't care about himself, that nothing she can do is ever going to make that change. Maybe she's just worried about everything these days and taking it out on him. Maybe if she wants to tell her boyfriend off she can think about doing it when they're not naked in public. So many maybes.
