Chapter 9 - The Life I Buried
I finally told them part of the truth.
Not everything.
Enough.
Six years ago, I left because someone close to me became dangerous.
Not physically.
Strategically.
Information was being used against people.
Lives were being manipulated.

I chose a smaller life.
A quieter one.
A Walmart job.
A simple house.
No recognition.
No questions.
Tyler listened.
And looked ashamed.
Because he spent years mocking something he never understood.
The sergeant looked at me.
“You can’t stay hidden anymore.”
I knew.
I hated that he was right.

Not old.
Recent.
Someone had added it recently.
