Summary:Jenna speaks to Travis
After having spoken with Douglas, Jenna had decided that she did need to talk to Travis again. Her plan had been to wait for Monday and then bring it up with him. Then Saturday happened and most of the week had been spent not wanting to put a bullet between Brian's eyes.
She couldn't believe he'd been that careless. It was one thing that he was careless with his life, but he'd been careless with the lives of their children. Her own experience had not been a good one. She hated losing control, didn't even allow herself to get drunk, and here control was taken from her without her consent. Add that for the entire night she had not been able to be there for her son. She'd been lost in the fears and paranoia the loss of control brought with it, and not been herself until the next day.
Brian should be glad she didn't shoot first and think about the consequences later.
Today though was as good day as any to bring things up with Travis. She wasn't as upset as she had been, and could talk calmly without letting her anger about Saturday spill into a conversation which had nothing to do with it. After all, the fact that she couldn't trust Brian not to tamper with her food, or not to cause danger to her child, had little to do with why she couldn't trust Douglas to have her back.
Approaching Travis as they were preparing for dinner (which was much nicer when it was sunny and 69 degrees than rainy, windy and cold) she asked if she could have a moment with him. She waited until they were alone and down wind before she spoke up.
"You told me to come to you if I thought couldn't make things work with Douglas," she said. "As much as I hate to admit defeat, I don't think I can. Not that I know if something even can be done about it, but he told me straight out that he'll never have my back, and while I appreciate his honesty I wouldn't feel safe if I were ever sent on a mission with him."
"Do you really think something can be done about it? It's hard enough running things here when some people are spiking the food not to have to worry about people wanting to change partners as well."
