She'd started swimming early in the morning, when the kids were asleep, when she thought he was asleep. She didn't know her absence woke him, that the shift in the bed was an earthquake. When she climbed back in, she smelled like salt and seaweed. Sometimes her hair would still be knotted on top of her head. She tried to keep it dry. She didn't want him to know.

In any kind of relationship we can make the assumption that others know what we think, and we don__ have to say what we want. They are going to do what we want because they know us so well. If they don__ do what we want, what we assume they should do, we feel hurt and think, __ow could you do that? You should know._ Again, we make the assumption that the other person knows what we want. A whole drama is created because we make this assumption and then put more assumptions ontop of it.
