Andrea had no memory of any of this.

Still, she was good at reading people. Recalling Sean’s strange behavior today, and how he’d kept staring at her arm when he first arrived….

Andrea sensed something. She pretended to reminisce with him:

“Of course I remember. You were covered in blood. It terrified me.”

Stepping out of the car, he pushed the door open–and there was that familiar silhouette.

Geoffrey’s eyes sharpened. He lunged forward, ready to pull her into his arms.

But the moment he reached out, the figure vanished…

Only then did Geoffrey realize it was a hallucination.
