The Woman From Hell

I was good at playing pretend. Besides, now that Theo learned I had not eaten anything all day, his face no longer looked so cold.

Theo frowned as he watched me put on a show in silence.

I blinked my eyes and started pretending to have gastric pain again.

Sure enough, this trick worked like a charm.
