Taming Mr. Black
" It's not what you think."
" When Killian called that night, Killian told me you slipped and fell into the ocean. The doctor said you nearly drowned. I'm not dumb, Naomi, you obviously didn't slip and fell into the ocean. Something happened, what was it? I know very well that you can swim, and I also taught you how to swim growing up, you can't just accidentally slip and nearly drown."
" Is that what Killian told you? That I slipped?"
" Yes."
I sit up, removing my head from my brother's thighs as I stand up and start to pace the living room.
