Emily blinked with a slight trace of irritation. ‘It’s usually professional questions,’ she replied imprecisely, ‘and occasionally family questions. Her sarcastic replies did little to reassure him. Every answer seemed designed to distract rather than enlighten. Mark was on the verge of losing patience, but managed to control his frustrations.

Emily’s answers are imprecise and evasive, which only intensifies your suspicion. Why don’t you express yourself directly? Mark tried again, frustration flooding his voice. Emily let out a sigh, her face becoming more rigid. “It’s complicated and I don’t want to lead you into it,” she said gently. Her words hung in the air, imprecise and meaningless. Mark felt an increase in her agitation, the enigma surrounding her becoming more intense. Every half-truth she provided only generated more doubts.

Mark was about to reply, but the sight of her closed fists and burning eyes stopped him. The gulf between them widened, pushing them further apart.
