I understood exactly what Diego was doing. Right there, in front of everyone… he wanted to humiliate me.
So instead, I turned silently and began walking toward the cemetery exit.
Behind me, I could hear the murmurs.
“Poor woman…”
“How awful…”
Their whispers followed me, but they no longer mattered.
Because as I passed Diego, I paused for just a moment.
I reached up and adjusted his coat, as if fixing something.
And in that brief instant, I slipped the small device deeper into his pocket.
He didn’t notice.
But I did.
That faint, almost imperceptible click.

As I stepped outside the cemetery gates, my phone vibrated.
The signal was active.
That small, seemingly insignificant movement…
would reveal everything.
I didn’t go back home.
I couldn’t.
