Coloqué suavemente los auriculares sobre los oídos de Luna.
Then I stood.
“You’re right about one thing, Ainsley. We should stop pretending.”

My father immediately stiffened.

Then came her remarks about keeping Luna away from the guests.
I stopped the recording.

Brooks stared at his fiancée.
My mother covered her face.
Dad looked down at the table.
