“If she sees it now, everything is ruined.”
My stomach dropped.
I knocked hard.
Everything inside became silent.
“Emily?”
No answer.
“Lily?”
Still nothing.
Then Mike spoke.
“Sarah?”
His voice sounded surprised.
“Why are you home already?”
That question made my fear even worse.
“Open the door.”
There was a pause.
“One second.”
I heard movement inside.
Something fell.
Then Lily whispered,
“Hide it.”
I hit the door again.
“Mike. Open this door right now.”
The lock clicked.
The door opened.
For one terrifying second, I was afraid to look inside.

Both were fully dressed, kneeling on the bathroom floor.
Emily was holding an old toothbrush.
Lily had a small towel in her hands.
Mike stood beside the sink holding a screwdriver.
All three stared at me like I had caught them doing something illegal.
“What is going on?”
Nobody answered.
