"Do you understand what I mean now?" Erland asked.
Briel was silent again, making Erland want to throw something right now.
"Listen to me!" Erland grabbed Briel's shoulders. The two of them looked at each other.
"We are here, we live under this same roof, because of our marital status. Therefore, what I mean is that you are my life partner, Briel. So stop saying nonsense or thinking about the friendship that has been stuck in your head all along! I am your husband. I am your life partner, without you asking me to be your friend, I am your friend, you can share everything with me, more than what you did in the friendship between you and Jenny. Now, or maybe forever, I am the real place in your life, " said Erland.
Briel was again silent, making Erland feel very annoyed. Briel's gaze was so flat that Erland was sure that Briel still didn't understand what he meant.
