'Advice'(End)
Luke had known that this question would come sooner or later, so he had been thinking about what to tell Liz.
One option was admitting everything – that it was all an act.
The other was keeping up the act, to ensure that what had happened these past few days would definitely not repeat.
He hadn't been leaning towards either till now, but this moment gave him clarity.
That apology from Liz and them going back to normal was exactly what he wanted, but there would definitely be a risk if she found out that her whole introspection had started due to an act.
He couldn't ensure that she wouldn't go back to being that distant woman from before, which was something he definitely couldn't take, if she found out the truth.
It meant too much to him, so Luke wanted to make sure.
Sure that whatever this was, would stay.
And for that, the act would have to continue, and Liz could never find out what it was in reality.
