"I'm at my wits' end with you!" Jeffrey paced the room with his upper body naked and hands on hips.

Karen looked for any chance to escape, but she was yanked back each time she tried to do so.

"Bro, it's half past three. Am | not getting any sleep?" "Like | can sleep with all this going on?" he was so fumed that the idea of rest was far from his mind.

He had planned to finish his cigarette, curl up with her in bed, and after a good night's rest, lay everything out on the table for a heart-to-heart in the morning. But she had to spring a nasty surprise on him in the dead of night! "If you're going to be up all night, don't drag me into it," Karen said, rubbing her eyes and yawning. "I'm not kidding, I'm seriously tired!" Seeing her trying to leave again, Jeffrey grabbed the clothes from her hands and, without warning, tossed them into the bathtub and turned the tap on! Karen was dumbfounded, "What the hell's wrong with you? | need to wear those!" "We're both beat, and I'm not having this talk now. Hit the hay, and we'll sort it out once we're up," Jeffrey said, feeling a heartache from all the frustration.

But his mind was so blocked with things he wanted to say and do, he couldn't get it out. Sleep came first.

"l won't stay. | need to go back." Even without her soaked clothes, she still had her robe and more clothes in her luggage back in her room.

Grinding his teeth, Jeffrey snapped, "Say one more word, and neither of us is sleeping. I'll keep you up until you can't even get out of bed!" "You wouldn't dare! If | don't consent, it's illegal!" "Try me and see if | dare!" As he stepped closer, his tall frame cast a shadow over her, which was an imposing presence she couldn't ignore.

Karen thought she'd better be supple, "How about this, Jeffrey? I'll go back and sleep, and I'll come find you once I'm awake. You wait for me here, okay?" "No way!" "What if | insist on going back?" He narrowed his eyes at her, then swiftly yanked off her robe, along with his own and the towels, and tossed them all into the water-filled tub.

"You're out of your mind..." Karen was thoroughly convinced that Jeffrey had lost his marbles.

No decent person could come up with such a scheme! "Go ahead, leave naked. | won't stop you." Karen was seething as her eyes caught sight of the comforter on the bed. She reached to pull it over her body so she could wrap herself in it and leave.

As long as the hotel's corridor cameras didn't catch her bare, it would be fine.

Jeffrey's icy voice warned from behind, "So you're choosing not to need a comforter tonight, huh?" "Go to a damn mental hospital! Did Heather screw up your head or something?" Karen's temper flared as well. "Aren't you supposed to be some kind of a playboy? Can't handle the game? Do you cling to all your past flings like this?" Silence.

No. Never, except for her.

"Listen, | don’t want to wake up Dorothy in the middle of the night. Don’t push it too far, or it'll be bad for both of us." Having said her piece, Karen scanned the room for anything she could wear.

Her gaze settled on Jeffrey's blue hoodie.

She strode over, pulled it on, and thankfully, Jeffrey's height meant the hoodie was long enough to cover what needed covering.

Without hesitation, she stormed out, slamming the door so hard the frame rattled.
