Toby tried to ignore him, but there was no ignoring those arms that were suddenly wrapped around him; that firm, solid chest that he was being pressed against; and that throbbing heartbeat that reminded him how viscerally satisfying it had been to have this man inside him. He sniffled and cried for a minute or two.
Why? Why not get in the car? Wasn't the answer abundantly obvious?
Reluctant but stubborn, he squirmed out of Gerry's grasp and took a step back, once more glaring at the sidewalk.
"And then what?" he muttered. "I'm not going back there. How can you ask me to go back to that?"
He looked up, suddenly full of anger, despite his teary eyes: "How can you go back there, every fucking day?" he exclaimed. "My whole life I've had people bullying me and bossing me, but what can a kid do about that? You're a grown-ass adult, and you're still being bullied and bossed around. She thinks she's got your balls in a jar, and you just take it! I'm not letting her treat me like trash. I'm done - I'm done with everyone treating me like trash. You know what, Gerry? You know what I've learned? You don't have to take it. You can just fucking walk away. It's that simple. Fucking watch me."
He pushed past Gerry and tried to continue on his way.
