Lies And Alibis
““What’s going on Connie?” I ask as I look over my list of surgeries for the day.
“I should be asking you that question. Or maybe I should be asking Lucas.”
My lips form a tight line. I knew someone would start speculating soon, but I hoped that it wasn’t Connie.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I say.

“That doesn’t mean anything. Doctors console one another all the time. It comes with the job.”
“Well, from what I heard this was a little bit more intense than two colleagues sharing war stories. This was more intimate. Like how lovers comfort one another.”
“Oh good grief! Are you sure you actually heard all that? If you did, your source ought to be slapped for extreme embellishment.”MoreLess
