*It starts with one thing...*
November 2000
"Max, look. There's just...there's nothing left to say."
"Except the truth."
"We have already been through this!"
"So far, all I know is what I saw, and what I saw can't be true, because it means everything I felt in my heart for the last year is a lie! Now, you owe me an explanation, and I want it right now!"
"Please quit shouting, Max. You're scaring me."
"That's a lie, too! You're not scared. You're hiding something."
I willed myself to sound believable. "I'm not."
"What the hell is going on with you, Liz? We never lied to each other, never kept a secret from each other."
"You know, you have got me up on this pedestal, Max, and…I'm not this perfect person. I made a mistake. Look, Kyle and I made love. The end. I'm sorry."
God, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
