I froze. That was when a voice slithered into the air. “Do you know what it is to be betrayed, child?” I spun toward the sound, though my blind eyes could see nothing. My pulse raced. The voice was neither male nor female, but both at once. It was rich, low, and slippery like oil on water. “Betrayal is sharper than any blade,” it continued. “It comes not from strangers but from those you hold close; family, friends, and lovers.

And while I can still talk to one of them sometimes, I find myself wishing, every day, that I could converse with the other instead.

He swears he was faithful to me the entire time, and I want to believe him, but there’s a voice in the back of my mind that doubts him. I married Lincoln, believing that he truly loved me and would be faithful, only to find out how foolish I was.

"Well... I... I don't like telling people about it." "Hmm... I see. But whatever it is, you shouldn't let that turn you into this.
