"What are you talking about?" Keith snapped irritably, his voice sharp enough to cut through the air between them. His eyes widened with disbelief as he glared at Sarah, annoyance darkening his expression now.
Sarah struggled to steady her breathing. For one reckless second, she almost blurted out everything that had been poisoning her mind since the moment she walked into Keith's apartment and saw the truth with her own eyes. His betrayal of her best friend, Julie. The lies they had built together over the years had blinded her like a fool. Every disgusting detail pressed painfully against her chest, begging to be thrown straight into his face.
But she held herself back. The anger burning inside her nearly won, yet her conscience stopped her before the words escaped. What would screaming accomplish? Keith would only twist everything around like he always did. He would deny it, manipulate her, and somehow make her feel guilty for discovering the truth.
