"It's your fault for parking in the wrong spot. What? Do you think you did it right?" Obviously, the woman didn't agree with Leena at all. So she shouted again, just in case she wasn't heard by others.
"Look, I was wrong, I apologized. I even offered to pay you. What more do you want?" Leena never thought this woman would come barging into her house, so she felt sorry for Kevin. He worked his butt off on base. He came home to relax, and what did he find? This horrible woman and her gang of idiots.
"Yeah, you admitted you were wrong, so what? Apology not accepted! That's why there are cops." How the woman wished that she could go and scratch Leena's milky white beautiful face again to see how she liked being ugly. Yeah, she was young and pretty, but that didn't mean she should flaunt it. Shallow women always hated beautiful women. And that was the situation Leena was facing now.
"So what? You think you're a cop now? I should call the cops on you. You broke into my house!" Leena sneered at her. Leena hated bullies, and wasn't about to let this bully win, no matter how many men she had with her. It went against everything she believed in.
"Yeah I did. And I have every right to, just like I have every right to burn this place to the ground for you playing Miss high-and-mighty. What do you say to that?" The woman didn't take Leena's threat seriously. Instead, she just got even more aggressive. She only respected strength, and didn't believe Leena had the strength to bully her.
Leena giggled mirthlessly. "Yeah right. My house, my rules. And right now my rules say you're not allowed in here. I worked hard on this place, so you won't touch it. Get out. Now." Kevin was a soldier and it was inappropriate for him to hit others. He might be charged with bullying a civilian. But Leena was a different matter. If she hit someone, there might be consequences, but it wouldn't tank her career. And right now, as she balled her fists, she was close to hitting this harridan.
"Huhm! Who do you think you are, bitch? You can't stop me! And --" She was interrupted mid-sentence by a loud slap, and her head lolled from the impact. And who did this? Kevin! He didn't like hitting others, but this time he lost it. His rage was white hot.
"I never hit women, but in your case I'll make an exception. You deserved that for the crap that spews out of your mouth!" Kevin had put up with her for a long time. Now he reached his limit. He was a soldier, true, but that didn't mean he had to listen to this bitch insult his wife!
The woman recovered, shaking her head. You could see the red handprint on her face, a sign of Kevin's handiwork. "Help! He hit me! Look at my face! He's going to kill me!" The woman raised her voice and screamed loudly. She obviously did not connect Kevin's uniform to anything meaningful.
