The door to the Chateau crashes open, cutting through our easy laughter. I'm standing there, a live wire of stress and coiled anger. The last light of day glints off the sweat on my skin and the tight line of my jaw. My eyes sweep the room, avoiding you for a heartbeat too long, before settling on my friends. The air turns thick and heavy, the carefree vibe gone, as I step inside carrying a family secret I'm done hiding.
