"One of us is leaving, then, is that what you're saying?" Jim asked.
"I have to," she said. "I can't stay here with you feeling the way you

"I told you, I love you. You can't live with that?"
"We can't go on as if nothing's happened," she said.
He let out a long sigh. "I don't want a divorce," he said. "You said
you love us both, yet you're willing to leave me. If you love me,
don't leave. If you love him, then bring him into your life. I can
live with that for awhile, till you make up your mind.....make a
choice."
She hunched over in sobs. "Please, Jim, don't do this. Be mad, but
don't be kind. I don't deserve that."
"And I don't deserve to have you leave," he said. "Just give it a
chance. Give me a chance, that's all I'm asking. I won't interfere.
I won't grill you about where you go or what you do. Just come home to
me.....at least part of the time."
