From License to Lies
I called him, but the phone rang once before he rejected it.
A second later, he texted: [Honey, I'm in a meeting.]
I stared at those words, silent.
If I hadn't seen Vivian's video, I might have been fooled again.
In fact, the previous missed registrations had given me doubts. But his love and care over five years seemed so real that I brushed everything aside.
It was said that once trust broke, it was gone for good.
Now I couldn't stop wondering, 'If he tricked me about those seven registrations, what about the rest of the time? Is his kindness all fake? Are his promises all lies? When he calls me honey, is he thinking of me or Vivian?'
