Sylvia stared at the words for a while, her expression a bit dazed. After a moment, she seemed to snap back to reality and smiled at me. She took my hand and said, "Hudson, it's so hot outside. Let's go inside."

The truth couldn't stay hidden forever, but surely there was no need to expose it this quickly. She didn't even give me a chance to prepare. Selena looked at Sylvia with a look of utter disdain.

"Hud, is this your new girlfriend?" Selena looked at me, shaking her head with a disapproving click of her tongue as if criticizing my poor taste for choosing someone like Sylvia.
