Conversation turns to holiday
I casually asked, “How was the holiday?” guiding the conversation toward her trip. She glanced up from her plate, a smile spreading across her face, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “It was amazing,” she replied, her voice full of enthusiasm. “We visited so many places and caught up with old friends.” Her vibrant energy was hard to ignore, but it only deepened the unease stirring within me. What was really behind that carefree smile? What was she hiding?

Old friend mentioned
When she casually mentioned reconnecting with an old friend, a wave of unease washed over me. “Oh, and I met up with Alex,” she added, sipping her coffee like it was no big deal. My stomach knotted at the mention of the name. Who was Alex? Why had she never mentioned him before the trip? It felt like there was something hidden beneath her nonchalant words, something I couldn’t ignore. I had to know more about this mysterious friend.
