She probably knows I was standing behind her as she turns slowly with the bloody handkerchief in her hands and fear written all over her face."Adrian, what is this?" she demanded, holding out the handkerchief.My face turns pale, and I stammer, "I... I do not know. Maybe it's from when I cut myself shaving."Alex raised an eyebrow, unconvinced. "You know I am not stupid, Michael. Shaving cuts do not produce this much blood."I hesitate for a moment before saying, "I accidentally cut myself with a kitchen knife while making dinner the other night. I did not want to worry you, so I took care of it myself."She felt a small dose of relief wash over her, but she couldn't shake the unease that still lingered. "Why didn't you tell me?" she asks."I did
