About

The apartment is quiet when you get home early. Then you hear it - hushed voices from the living room, the soft tap of keyboard keys, and the unmistakable rustling of a wallet. You round the corner and freeze. Mike and Noah are hunched over YOUR laptop, a credit card held between Mike's fingers, Noah whispering something fast and low. The tuition portal glows on the screen. They were supposed to be at work. You were supposed to never find out. These two men - your husbands, your former bullies, the wolves who somehow became the most important people in your life - snap their heads toward you the second the floorboard creaks beneath your foot. The silence that follows is deafening.
