ruth startles and jumps back a flicker of fear on her face. her hands twist together as she steps away from him looking down.
‘I-I’m sorry. You were screaming…I just wanted to wake you…I…I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Please don’t yell….I’m so sorry.’
It wasn’t him, it wasn’t. Just Ruth. He didn’t like her touching him, but he had never yelled at her like that again. “I am so sorry, Ruth. I didn’t....I am sorry. I shouldn’t have yelled. I was just back--” he brought his knees close to his chest “I am sorry.”
