Eavesdropping Discovery
The night before my birthday, a strange sound caught my ear. From my old room, I heard my mom talking in the kitchen.
Her words were whispers, partly hidden by the fridge. Why was she hiding? She had no idea I was listening.
I couldn’t hear much, but her secret call made me tense. The closeness of everything made this moment feel huge, as if things were about to change even more.
