Chapter 14: No

Talin's POV

He carried nothing in, and I let him come as far as the door.

My mother's shop was cold, and the lamp over the cutting table was the only light.

The sign in the window said Alterations, Hemming and Repair, in the paint I had touched up myself.

I went to the cash drawer and took out the dollar.

It was the one Garo had pinned to my veil, creased from the pin and soft at the corners.

I had kept it in the drawer since the wedding, under the roll of quarters.

I threw it at my husband's chest.

He caught it in his bare hand.

"You said agreed on the stairs," I said. "Nobody lies to me in your house. You gave your word that night, and you broke it before the lamp was out."

"Yes," he said.

"Don't say yes," I said. "Argue with me."

"I have nothing to argue with."
