It was the smile that did it.
It was always something – a sound, a smell, even a taste.
Something that just didn’t sit right. Something he was experienced enough to notice.
But whatever it was, it always had the same effect.
It brought him out of the illusion.
This was no different.
Because that smile? The one that had been reserved only for him for so long? He knew it wasn’t his anymore.
It was so brief, though, that he managed to ignore it.
Because Hugh taking care of him?
Huh.
Maybe this wasn’t such a bad trip after all.
