A Leak Only in His Absence

My husband had just left for a business trip an hour ago when the bathroom ceiling started dripping water again, filling me with doubt.

Ever since we moved to this new neighborhood, whenever Quinn went on a business trip, the upstairs apartment would start leaking.

The first few times, Quinn firmly refused to let me go up and negotiate, saying he was afraid the people upstairs would be unreasonable and I'd be wronged.

After he reported it to the property management, the leaking would stop for a few days.

But as soon as he left for a trip, the leaking would start again.
