In her words, Pyris found out that Lizzie wasn't as he had initially expected. Although she was surprised and a little disappointed to discover his relationship with Suzie, there was nothing deeper than that.
She admitted that her feelings for Suzie had always been a pipe dream.
Suzie wasn't into women, and Lizzie had always respected that. She had also known for some time that Suzie harbored feelings for Pyris, but she had never imagined their relationship had progressed to this point.
What stung the most, she explained, was that Suzie hadn't shared any of it with her.
As close as they were, Lizzie had hoped for openness between them, but she also understood the complex dynamics of the situation. Suzie had known about Lizzie's feelings, and Pyris being their boss added another layer of complication.
