I tried to stay calm.
⸻
“What do you mean?” I asked.
⸻
But she didn’t answer.
⸻
Just kept looking at me.
⸻
Like she already knew.
⸻
And was waiting for me to admit it.
⸻
But I couldn’t.
⸻
Because I had never told her.
⸻
Never even hinted at it.
⸻
So how?
⸻
That’s when she said something that made everything worse.
⸻
“You’ve been different lately.”
⸻
And suddenly…
it clicked.
⸻
She didn’t know the details.
⸻
But she knew enough.
⸻
And sometimes…
that’s more dangerous.
⸻
Can people sense things you try to hide?
