Soft towards her
Emily
I didn't follow him. Not anymore.
I wanted to. God, I wanted to.
The moment I heard Seth's footsteps disappear down the hallway that morning every curious part of me wanted to get up and find out where he was going.
But I didn't.
I remained where I was, sitting on the edge of the chair with my fingers intertwined tightly in my lap.
Because whatever I had heard...
I didn't want to become the kind of wife who secretly followed her husband around the house.
I had already been through enough betrayal to know what suspicion could do to a person's mind.
It could make you see things that weren't there.
It could make innocent actions look guilty.
And it could turn every unanswered question into a reason to doubt someone.
I didn't want that.
Not with Seth.
