Lark stared at Ollie as they finished tidying up the clothes she’d strewn about the room and then sighed. “I think we need to tell Max and Johan.”
Ollie immediately spun on her heel, “are you nuts?”
“No. Ollie, we can’t keep secrets like this. I’m lying to Max and it’s affecting my relationship with him. I need to come clean.”
“Are you going to come clean about everything?”
“What do you mean?”
“Heriberto wasn’t wrong. You haven’t told Max about why you left him. Not the real reason. He needs to know.”
“Fine. I’ll tell him my secrets if you tell him yours.”
“You weren’t supposed to agree!” Ollie snapped a towel at her.
Lark grabbed her phone and sent a text to Max and Johan before she could chicken out.
We need to talk. Come to my room asap and please be really quiet when you do.
