"n-nothing," i pull my scarf over my face, "i fell..."
he looks horrified, "fell? i've fell plenty of times and that doesn't just happen. did someone hit you?"
"no!" i reply a little too quickly. i need to get out of here. i jump up from the couch just as michael enters the living room.
"i brought your tea!" michael happily announces.
"thanks but i need to go," i pull on my jacket and run out the house without looking back.
