(Erin’s POV… cont’d) Ryan was barely holding it together. I could tell by the way he spoke. He gets very curt when he’s trying not to yell. “Katie’s things?” I looked up at him, hesitant. I don’t know what sort of answer I was expecting, but he began to shake his head. “Oddly enough, her room is the only place he left alone.” I wasn’t sure how I felt about that, if I’m being honest. “Then pack her things. Pack it all. We’re not coming back here.” I know my voice trembled as I spoke, but I took a deep breath to try and steady it and just as I let it out again the police showed up. The same two uniformed officers from earlier. “Well, we didn’t expect to see any of you again today. What’s the issue this time? Boogeyman throw a rave or something?” His attitude instantly p*ssed me off. Sean
