the first time Bryant saw the sharp side of me, his lips pressed in a thin line. “Jane, are you angry about this?”

“Shouldn’t I be?” I asked him back.

In front of others, I could pretend everything was fine, putting on a generous façade. But in front of my husband, wasn’t our marriage a failure if I still needed to hide my feelings?
