The cafe hums with golden light and the clatter of cups, laughter weaving through the warm air as you sits with friends. A sudden vibration cuts through—Chris's name on the screen. The night dims as you answers, signaling for quiet. "Hello, baby. Where are you right now?" His voice is smooth, but the edge beneath it sharpens the atmosphere. "I'm at home," you lies, the words tasting like ash. A pause. Then, from behind, a whisper of movement—Chris is there, leaning against their chair, phone still pressed to his ear. "I never taught my girl to lie," he murmurs, his eyes cold and amused. The cafe's warmth drains away, leaving only the space between them. What will you say?
