Mari sat by the island in the kitchen, determined to wait there until Jax returned from wherever it was he had disappeared to.
She knew very well that no matter how much time he spent away, he was bound to come to the kitchen to get something to eat.
His refrigerator was stocked up in a way that told her he preferred homemade meals to eating out, so she had no doubt that he would show up in the kitchen sooner or later.
She was going to be waiting right there when he showed up.
Bored and not having anything else to do to while away the time, she took out a box of cereals and made some for herself.
She replayed her last conversation with Jax over and over again in her head as she ate the cereals halfheartedly.
No matter how long or how hard she thought about it, she couldn't understand why he was mad.
Where was he anyway? Was he going to stay away again for a whole day like he had done two days ago?
