The sound of Lena's frustration could be heard throughout the apartment. The newspaper had been violently discarded and now rested on the floor. Gordon found Lena gesticulating at some argument she was having internally. "What's wrong?"
Lena turned toward him and she erupted in a semi-coherent stream of anger and fear about the goings on in Poland. Gordon tried to reason with her. "You've been in contact with your family recently, haven't you? Maybe they got out?"
"I don't know! I hope they did, but I don't know!" Lena cried and balled up her fists. Emotion taking over and leaving her with ought to do but cry and rail at the injustices of the world. When words failed him, Gordon did the only thing that always seemed to work - he gave his wife a hug and let her cry all over his shoulder. When she'd calmed down, he picked up the discarded paper and read what had upset her so.
