The website was a cheap design, amateurish, yet the subject matter was her. The article started: "The deepest, darkest secrets of [Her Name]." She found the page early in the morning, while still in bed. She didn’t rise.

She read a few sentences, then clicked on the article. She skimmed the words. She noted the grammatical errors. She sighed, and closed the laptop. The sun was streaming through the curtains. She pulled the covers up.

She spent the day at home, reading a book.
