The answer unfolds with the precision of a legal argument. "Karla, I've been informed about your frequent outings with Jake. This needs to stop. You are no match for my son." What?

The words hang in the air, a verdict delivered before the trial has even begun. I glance at Jake, his expression mirroring my confusion and concern. The café, once a haven of shared secrets, now feels like a fragile bubble on the verge of bursting.

"But, Mrs. Lee Perrington, Jake and I are just friends," I try to explain, my voice wavering. "We enjoy each other's company, that's all." Even though that is a bloody lie from the pits of hell.

She scoffs, dismissing my words like irrelevant evidence. "Karla, don't play games. I know the kind of girl you are. You're not fit for someone like Jake. I won't have you tarnishing his reputation."

My heart pounds, a steady drumbeat of indignation and hurt. The café, once a sanctuary, now feels like an interrogation room where I'm judged without a chance to present my case.

"Mrs. Lee Perrington, please understand," I implore, glancing at Jake, who wears a mix of frustration and helplessness. "Our friendship is genuine. I would never do anything to harm Jake's reputation."

Her tone sharpens, cutting through my feeble defense. "Karla, you're a paralegal. You should know better than to think this could end well for you. Jake's future is at stake here."

The world around me blurs as her words sink in. The sunlit afternoon turns into a dimly lit courtroom, and I find myself standing at the witness stand, facing a judgment I never anticipated.
