Too much mystery . . .

Cara Walker feels that her boyfriend, Steven Wakefield, isn’t paying enough attention to her. Suddenly he’s acting aloof and withdrawn. Cara’s good friend, Jessica, Steven’s sister, suggests that Cara add some mystery to the relationship.
When Cara takes Jessica’s advice, it backfires. Steven starts to act even more distant, and Cara is sure he’s hiding something. He used to confide in her, but now it seems he’s turning to his sister Elizabeth’s friend Abbie Richardson. Will Cara discover Steven’s secret before she’s replaced by someone new?

Steven didn’t seem to be acting like himself at Cara’s party. She watched anxiously as he left the table in the restaurant. “Jessica,” she said, frowning, “has Steve been acting differently since he came home?”
”What do you mean?” Jessica asked.
”He seems distant. I’ll be back in a second,” she said, pushing her chair back and standing. She found Steven sitting on a chair scanning a pierce of pink stationary, his brow wrinkled.
”Hey,” Cara said with a smile, coming up behind him and putting her hands on his shoulders. “What’s that?”
Steven jumped. His face turned bright red, and he folded the stationary hastily. “Cara,” he said, annoyed, “since when do you go sneaking up on people and read over their shoulders?
Cara felt her face go hot. “I wasn’t sneaking!” she said indignantly. “I just came out here to make sure you were all right. Anyway, what difference does it make if I were looking over you shoulder? Since when do you get letters that you have to hide from me, your own girlfriend?”
“Some things are private, that’s all,” Steven said defensively. He put the letter into the breast pocket of his suit and turned away.
