"I just want to be alone, Rory, please, just leave me alone".

"How long are you going to stay mad at me?"

"I'm not mad, Rory, I'm upset" she looked at him with tears in her eyes, "how could you do that to me?"

"Amy I am truly sorry, it was a mistake, but we need to put it behind us, I need you to forgive me".

"Forgive you? Rory, that was the worst thing you could have ever said to me, I'm not just going to sweep it under the carpet".

"You're right, it was cruel and insensitive, but Amy, it's in the past now, we're about to have another baby, a son, please forgive me".

She stood up and went over to where he was. After taking a deep breath she looked at him in the eyes...

...and slapped him.
