He bought a second phone so I'd never see what was on it. He forgot that a car has its own memory.

My husband got jumpy whenever I came home early. I never found a single text or receipt. The thing that finally told me the truth had feathers.

For two years my husband had a second life I never heard. Then a phone update woke a sound he never meant me to hear.

A scratch in a parking lot sent me looking for footage. The cameras had recorded something else entirely, and I couldn't unsee it.

A guilty tip from his ex-wife's coworker told him who she'd been seeing. He thought he finally had the whole truth. He had less than half of it.

I was unpacking the first boxes in our new place when I borrowed the iPod on his speaker dock for some music. It kept chiming. I shouldn't have looked. I'm so glad I did.
