Well, let me explain it to you, Mr. Not-So-Smart. Your silence could mean two things: one, you weren’t pretending, and two, you didn’t want to lie to me. You took exactly 30 seconds thinking. If you were the murderer, I have this intuition that you’d have planned answers for my questions, even if you didn’t know what they were.”

Free from all this psychological pain that comes with age. “There’s no need for that.” I was building my plan of attack in my mind and decided that silent treatment will be the best way to handle this situation. Talking will only make matters worse than it already is. I’m like Mt. Pinatubo, waiting to erupt from its dormant, silent state, ready to burst into endless molten lava of anger.
