The hazel eyes shift far to the left and up
Like the prime suspect on a bad TV cop show
It may not be a lie that comes out next
But if it is the truth it has been carefully
Massaged
You see
I had to tell my sister a secret
It wasn't really a secret
It was like a joke
Not really a joke just something
I wanted to tell her
You know
Quietly
Umm Hmm
And
Well you see
I was chewing
This
Gum.

A deep breath in.
An inside count to three
Mom steels herself
And prepares for the extraction
