Chapter 28 Twenty Seven
- It had been two days, and still, I found myself lying in bed. I had bought some food from the store on the main road to quell my empty stomach, but that was all I had managed to do. I had ignored all calls since the other day, unable to face the truth.
- Running away had never solved anything, and I knew that. I wanted to talk to Sanna, but I didn't want to burden her with my problems, including Ranch. My mother had called countless times, and I had not read any of her messages. I had not even answered Zevran's call. Yesterday, I had turned off my phone entirely.
- I needed some peace and quiet to think. But here I was, still staring at the ceiling, unable to sleep or think clearly. I knew I needed to do something for my mother, even if it hurt. I had to accept the reality of the situation. My eyes were constantly filled with tears, and I was so tired. I felt like drowning myself and just stopping my breath, but I couldn't. Zevran's actions had broken me, but this was something else entirely. It was killing me slowly, draining me of all hope.
