I stared at him.
Trying to understand.
⸻
Why was he laughing?
⸻
This wasn’t funny.
⸻
Not even close.
⸻
“I thought you already knew,” he said.
⸻
And that’s when everything shifted.
⸻
“What do you mean?” I asked.
⸻
But he stopped smiling.
⸻
Too late.
⸻
He had already said too much.
⸻
And now…
I knew.
⸻
There was something I wasn’t supposed to know.
⸻
Something bigger.
⸻
And he had just confirmed it.
⸻
Without even realizing.
⸻
What would you do if someone slipped the truth by accident?
