"You've got me turnin' all around to be who you need me to"
•-•

I stood by Henry's desk, listening to him.

    "And I'm planning on having a larger area where the tables will be."

I nodded, looking down at the blueprints.

    "So maybe we could have a separate stage over here-"

A slow knock came to the door.

    Henry must've recognized the knock pattern.

   "Come in, Will."

William poked his head in the office. "I was going to ask if I could leave a little early. My wife asked me to watch the kids while she's gone."

Henry nodded. "Yes, that's fine."

      Kids??

"I'll see you tomorrow." He smiled and gave me a look that I couldn't read.

Henry was quiet for a little bit, looking at the blueprints.

I've been debating for a few hours wether I should tell Henry.

     I didn't tell the police, since Will was in the room with us while they questioned me.

    He lied through his teeth the entire time.

"Something bothering you?" Henry asked.
 
I snapped back into reality. "Huh? No, I'm alright." I lied.

     He knew I was lying.

   "You'll think I'm a mental patient."

Henry scoffed. "No I won't. You can tell me anything."

He won't believe me.

    No one will.

  William has a special facade of being perfect. Having a perfect life. A perfect job, perfect family. It can fool anyone.

"Please, I'm worried about you." Henry said, looking dead at me now.

"Fine." I said, sighing.

   "It was your fucking business partner. He murdered Olivia, and let me get away."

  "I'm- I'm sorry, this is a lot to take in." Henry started. "Are you feeling well?"

I knew it.

"Henry, you and me both know it was him!" I said, a mixture of irritation and being upset tracing my voice.
