Escape
Yep, I was wide awake. It was 3.02 a.m., but was about six p.m. Los Angeles time. I tried to close my eyes but they pinged back open again. Becca was stirring, but I couldn’t tell if she was awake.
A light knock on the door made my eyes widen even more as I froze up, clutching the bed covers. The only person I could imagine it to be was Daniel. I jumped at the sudden sound of my phone ringing but then it stopped after one ring.
Daniel. Must be him at the door, I reassured myself.
“Kira. It’s Daniel,” I heard him whisper so I unlocked the door.
“Hey, come in. I’m totally awake,” I whispered back.
“Me too!” Becca called out.
“Can’t sleep, honey?”
“Nope. You?”
“Neither.”
I was surprised to see Daniel still in a suit. “I heard movement, so just checking you girls were okay.”
