Settling In
|
|
Dee and Mac have been together for a few months.
Mac decides that Dee's friends do not mean her
any good. He berates them, alternatly ridiculing
and patronising of her.
She doesn't know, she is not perceptive, and he
gives contemptuous critiques of those in her circle.
Her attempts to defend them are met by his glare,
his frown, as he looks at her, as if saying; "you're
not the bright woman I thought you were,"
Mac doesn't have to say these people should not
ever be in his home. He doesn't have to.
Dee doesn't want to displease him.
Maybe he is right.
She doesn't know what to do.
She thinks, maybe, she should get rid of her
friends, after all, Mac is her husband. She
must chose him over everyone.
She learns to lie to her friends, to disconnect
from them, and her family follows.
"Your mother never liked me,"
"Your brother is trying to break us up"
Dee realises that it has become Mac or the
World, so she must chose Mac.
After all Mac has had some rough patches
in his life. She can not make him feel that
she likes her friends or family as much as
she likes him. She must build up his confidence.
She can't betray him.
So, she makes the choice.
Mac over all.
