She put the pencil down and swiveled to face him.
"I am doing my job. I'm here, aren't I? And you were there--plenty to keep rehearsal going." She paused. "I was at the Grand Guignol."
He'd find out anyway, at some point.

It was disgusting. What she'd witnessed tonight...
"At least it's a theater," she said lightly.

"It's a cabaret," Phoenix explained tightly. "Besides, what do you care? I'm here, aren't I?"

Phoenix gasped and tried to twist free of him. He was making her angry. Angry, and a little scared.
"You don't own me," she spat. "And if you keep it up, I won't even work for you anymore!"

"I own all uff you!" He exclaimed and pulled her down to the floor and dragged her toward the door, locking it.
He couldn't loose another one, not like he had lost Mira, his Mira was dead now, the Mira he had now was a shell of what she was. If Phoenix left, she'd be just like Mira.
He had never loved Phoenix like he had loved Mira, but she had been reliable and loyal. He reached down and slapped her "You can't leaf here! No vone can!"
((He's so fucked up))

Phoenix stared up at him in frozen shock, her face pale except where the mark of his hand bloomed across it.
"What are you doing?" she asked numbly. "I didn't leave..."

Phoenix collapsed to the floor, tears stinging her eyes.
"What business is it of yours?" she cried. "What are you saying? You don't own me. I can go where I want. I can take another job if I want! Ben was right! He was right about you!" She was shrieking now, tears running down her face.

Phoenix struggled, but he was stronger than her. What did he want?
"What do you want from me?" she asked, her voice strained. She wasn't going to sing for anyone, at this rate. "What did I do? Is this about Ben? I never thought you were disgusting. You waited until now to show it."

He didn't really have an answer for her, he just got angrier and tightened his grip.

"I told him he was wrong," she persisted, though it was getting harder to breathe. "I told him you'd helped me..."
She stared at him desperately, wondering how she could have ever believed that.
