I told Leo Bauer's wife that her husband wouldn't be coming home ever again. I told her that Leo was helping their son run off with June Moss, but it went terribly wrong, and now he is gone. She had been drunk already, and hearing this made her sick. She threw up everywhere and went to the bathroom. Sitting on the bathroom floor leaned up against the shower wall, she looked beautiful. I wanted her to be mine. I had never seen her like that, but now I couldn't get her off my mind. I became jealous of Leo Bauer. I had known him my whole life, but we didn't talk much. He thought of himself as better than the rest of us. Not any more, Leo. He had her all to himself and could talk to her whenever he wanted to, yet he attempted to run away with a girl the age of his son. How could he?
