North CarolinaConstruction ContractPayment Disputes

i am a contractor, James P. I have a customer asking for money back after a down payment. i have spent money on project and have been harassed during the project changing the the plan in multiple ways and in their order. i was let go simply and also with no cause; i was working on 3 parts of the contract, being threatened over the phone by the husband to the point he was so angry that when the agreements that his wife made he didn't even stay at his own home. i have probably had over 50 to 65 phone calls since the start and numerous messages over texts. they are asking for 1900 after they would call me 4 to 5 times a day so i had to stop on other jobs loss of labor and time to finish the job but they never allowed me to finish anything that i had started. if or if not, they have someone else already working on it what are my options because I've heard from multiple people that since they would not all me to finish the work and i had already started but couldn't work due to weather. do i have to pay them anything at all ? to me they hired then fired me without cause and they made that decision and from 5200 they dropped dropped the return to 1300 in about two weeks demanding it in cash. do i owe or do i just let it go to trial and i was not allowed to finish any of the projects that i started? do i owe them anything?
