Josh Formby squirmed in his seat.
He knew something.
Something he couldn't tell anybody. The secret he held within him was eating him alive.
He didn't know how much longer he could withhold this information.
He had to tell someone.
Anyone.
But he couldn't.
That would make him untrustworthy and everyone hates untrustworthy people.
A knock came at the door that made Josh snap back into reality.
"Hi, honey.","Dinner is ready." Mrs. Formby said.
"I'm not hungry." Josh replied.
"Sweetie, you have to eat." Mrs Formby said.
"No I honestly don't." Josh replied blankly.
His voice almost sounded as if it were being recorded and played back. Mrs. Formby noticed the change in his voice.
"Is everything okay Josh." Mrs. Formby asked with concern.
"Yeah mom everything's fine.",
"Are you sure?" Mrs. Formby asked.
"Yeah." Josh said quickly and looked down.
Mrs. Formby didn't notice this time.
"Okay, well dinner is ready, so come down before it gets cold." Mrs. Formby said as she shut the door.
Josh let out a sigh of relief.
He headed to the dinning room so his family wouldn't start getting suspicious.
He may have said everything was fine, but it was far from it actually.
It probably won't ever be "fine" again.
