Did he truly think she didn't know about the hole he kept digging and refilling?
She didn't even bother to dig it up herself. She wasn't the only one watching. Was he too drunk to feel eyes on him? Or maybe he wanted others to see, to know. Those who keep secrets often want someone else to find out, after all. An, whose life was nothing but secrets, knew that particularly well.
She just wished the tears that kept threatening to spill from his eyes as he stared into the hole would finally escape. But a secret lost all of its power once revealed.
