Chapter 13 - THE CLEANING TOWELFor months I could not use gray cleaning towels.
Ridiculous.
One afternoon I reached beneath sink, saw one, and froze.
Caroline noticed.
“You okay?”
“No.”
Good answer.
I started therapy.
Not because Jason could use it against me.
Amanda warned me not to let litigation dictate healthcare.
My therapist helped me understand humiliation.
The towel hurt.
Jason's silence hurt more because it confirmed alliance.
For years I had treated his passivity as weakness.
Sunday taught me it was sometimes choice.

Silence can be participation.
That became harder to forgive than the affair.
