MFFFC — Beneath the Surface

Fandango

It’s a lesson I learned the hard way. From all outward appearances, you were everything in a woman I ever wanted. Good looking, smart, sensitive, caring, sensual. I gave myself entirely to you, believing everything you said to me, and that you were as devoted to me as I was to you.

But in time, you revealed yourself to be a very different person beneath the surface than what you allowed people — most especially me — to experience. Beneath your attractive and compelling facade lurks a dark monster of hidden truths and buried emotions.
