I was behind the counter talking to Annie, my co-worker, about our manager’s instructions when Nate walked into the store.

He headed straight to where I stood behind the counter. I couldn’t help standing upright as soon as I saw him and my entire body filled with tension, wondering what he came here for and what he wanted to do.

“Hi,” He said in a weird quiet way, as though he was nervous.

“Hi.” I didn’t know what else to say.

Seeing him in the store was kinda weird and surprising.

After a moment of awkward silence, he asked, “Can I talk to you alone for a second?”

“Ginny, go ahead, I’ll stay here and call you if I need your help,” When I was silently trying to think of a way to refuse politely, my coworker Annie graciously replied on my behalf while staring at Nate and me with her usual ‘I want all the gossip,’ look.

I wanted to glare at her but decided not to even though I wished she had allowed me to make an excuse to refuse Nate’s request instead of replying him.

“Thanks,” Nate said, shooting Annie a thankful smile that probably melted her insides like it had many other members of the female species.

Seeing her awkward dreamy smile, I glared at her. Then I took a deep breath and went around the counter, schooling my features and getting ready for whatever Nate was going to throw at me in trepidation.

“Come on.” He grabbed my hand and said, “Take me somewhere we can talk about very private stuff.”

Somehow, his statement was like Tom’s before we had that gut-wrenching conversation yesterday. And I couldn’t help getting apprehensive, wondering what he wanted to say.

I sighed and led him to the back of the store to the alleyway where Annie and my other co-worker took their smoke breaks.

I sat on the bench just beside the door of the store while Nate stood opposite me, leaning against the wall as he stared at me for several disconcerting seconds.

“I saw you . . . I saw you going into the woods with Tom.” He said.

My heart beat faster as I held my breath for about twenty seconds, hoping and praying Nate hadn’t followed us into the woods yesterday.

Trying my best to look casual and unbothered, I answered carelessly, “We went to have a quickie.”

Usually, Nate would have sneered at me and believed me when he heard such words. But this time, he wasn’t buying it.

Instead, his jaw clenched and his eyes blazed in anger. “Don’t fucking lie to me, Ginny!”

He paused to collect himself and stared at me for a few seconds before commenting, “This is what you’ve been doing all this time, isn’t it? I accuse you of something, and you confirm it regardless of whether or not it’s true, just to hide your secrets.”

Since I had nothing to say to refute that truth, we stared at each other for a few seconds of heated silence until he spoke again. “I heard everything.”
