Tiago chuckled and sat down. “You haven’t even been here for a solid week, and you’re already going on a date.”

So that was it.

I could sense the hint of jealousy in his tone and felt tempted to call him out. He was the reason I was even locked up in the first place, and I didn’t have to do it. I did it because I loved my brother, but the feeling wasn’t mutual anymore.
