Will nodded. "Sure." He turned to leave.
"Will, about this morning. I was just really upset about our finances. I would never hurt her." Ron looked at Will looking for disbelief. Will looked at Ron and saw contrition. He also smelled alcohol and perfume.
"Are you cheating on her?" Will asked with a frown on his face. He deliberately kept his voice low so it wouldn't carry far.
Ron looked shocked. "I was with Precious earlier."
Will inhaled again; yeah that was Ron's sister's perfume and scent. There was still something off about it but he couldn't figure out what. He lifted his right shoulder in a half shrug. "Okay."
"Things are beyond stressful right now. I've got very dangerous people watching me. I can't let them hurt her." He took a deep breath and looked at the floor then Will. "They can't know how important she is to me."
Will saw the raw emotion and felt sorry for Ron. He looked vulnerable and sad. Ron smiled a little. Water splashed in the bathroom.
