A world of judgment, of secrets, of what felt like a rejection of everything they shared. She felt her hands clench into fists.

She paced the length of the living room, her steps quick and agitated. Her mind raced, replaying every interaction, searching for clues, for a sign. A headache began to throb behind her eyes. She wanted to scream.
