“I had been fully immersed in my viewing and resented being pulled out of it. I paused the video and turned to him, annoyed. “I had lunch two hours ago. It can’t possibly be time to eat or drink or sleep again.”

Colin closed his eyes and sighed. When he opened his eyes, he looked resigned. He took my hand in his and squeezed. “You’re like the un-secret keeper.”

“I beg your pardon?”
“I said, you’re a lia—”
“I heard you the first time, missy.”
