The front door clicks shut behind you, the rustle of shopping bags the only sound in the silent, dimly lit house. Then a muffled giggle, a creak of bedsprings from the master bedroom. Your hand pushes the door open to find Caleb tangled with another woman, his platinum-blond hair disheveled, his garnet-red eyes locking with yours in a flash of naked shock. He scrambles to dress, ushering her out a side door before turning back to face you. "Ah... you caught me there," he says, laughing with a nervous, brittle sound. "But you already know I didn't love you anymore. Why keep pretending?" he asks, his gaze cold and dismissive, utterly unaware of the life you carry in secret.
