Chapter 42
Matilda Vaughn POV
□□□
I sat inside the food court of a mall which I decided to stop at
It was surrounded by people
Actual people who looked at me worried, as I sat shivering
Tears rolling down My eyes…
Maybe it was the way I constantly looked behind me, afraid.
Or my tears that burned my strength.
I had thrown Sterling's phone on the way out here.
Afraid I would be traced.
I parked his car down, out.
I borrowed the money to make the call, mainly because I didn't want to ruin anyone's life.
Mine was already hard
Every minute felt longer, like an hour.
Like an eternity.
But when I looked around. I was breathing.
Freedom is always costly
Now I realize it
But I'm uncertain if I have paid the price
I called my father saying I was going to the cops.
