Silent Speculation
As additional information became available, I sensed a sense of unspoken conjecture lingering in the air. People sat in wrapped attention, waiting for more revelations from the will.

Even while I didn’t know how it would all turn out, I could sense that his family was as uncertain, united in an unexpected way by his father’s unexpected legacy.

As everyone waited for additional announcements, there was an almost palpable sense of anticipation in the room. The only sound in our tiny group was the lawyer’s voice, which sparked interest. I was reminded that this was real and not a dream by the steady pounding of my heart. With a firm grasp on his seat, my ex’s eyes were filled with emotion. Whatever was concealed from us, it seemed obvious to me that it was more important than we could have ever realized.
