"Buy me a ticket." "To what?" "Your train of thought. I've watched you stare out that window often enough to be curious." Ellie was ready. It was on the tip of her tongue to ask another question. 'How often have you been staring?' Instead, she looked him dead in the eyes. "The Truth isn't complicated, evading the truth is complicated."

That was enough to confirm that he had definitely recognized me. I fake frowned and stuttered while trying to find the doorknob, "I...uh...I...I don't understand what you are talking about.....I...I...I think I should go."
