Keep Her (2014)
“First there was Marcus, who I’d put on my own version of suicide watch. I still hadn’t told him Tessa was in Arizona and he was taking it out on inanimate objects, from what I’d seen of his place last night. After I’d settled in for the night, thinking about how I’d left off with Beck, Marcus called me up, demanding I take him to Tessa’s. I told him there was no use because she wasn’t there, but he’d been adamant. If it eased his mind to see things for himself, I figured I owed it to him as his... sister to help him out.
But when he found her place empty—like I told him it would be—he really upped the let’s-take-it-out-on-Riley ante. First, he called me all kinds of hurtful names for not telling him where Tessa was. That was strike one. Then he blamed me over and over again for causing her to run off. Strike two. But the worst was when he accused me of being jealous of him because I was still alone. Strike three—you’re out! I couldn’t take the mental abuse from him at that point—even if he wasn’t himself.MoreLess
