For the first time in days, I couldn't think clearly.
Everything felt unreal.
My husband.
My sister.
Planning behind my back.
Amara grabbed my hands.
"You have to act normal."
I stared at her.
"How?"
"If they know you found out, things could get dangerous."
Dangerous.
The word echoed in my mind.
"What do we do?" I whispered.
Her eyes hardened.
"We trap them."
My heart pounded.
"How?"
"Make them believe you trust them more than ever."
Pretend.
Smile.
Play the fool.
It sounded impossible.
But maybe it was the only way.
So when Daniel came home that night, I hugged him tighter than usual.
"I missed you," I said.
He smiled.
Completely unaware.
But something changed in his eyes.
Suspicion.
Just for a second.
And suddenly I wondered—
What if he already knows that I know?
If someone betrayed you like this… would you fight back or walk away?
