Chapter 3: StrategyDayna didn’t hear from Tom or Jean until night time. Even then, she only heard the shouts of an argument, along with some random thumps and the familiar sounds of breaking dishes. Kevin just played with toys like he usually did, and Ash paced. Dayna sat on Kevin’s bed, watching thoughtfully, and trying to block out the noise from downstairs.
She was still in shock over the tall girl who had crawled out from under her bed the day before, but somehow felt comfortable around Ash already. Ash looked strong and athletic, like maybe she’d been living as a runaway her whole life, especially since at the moment she still had grass and leaves in her hair. Dayna realized Ash was now the only other person in the world who knew what Dayna and Kevin’s lives were really like.
