Who Do You Think I Am?

 

Luckily, all my failed romances happened long before social media. You won’t find any of my dirty laundry out there. Since my name changed with each of my marriages, it would be complicated to find me anyway. As I huddle in my bubble of safety, I hope my luck holds out. Now that I’m in the witness protection program, I barely recognize my own name.
