The Bullet Meant For Her
The first gunshot sent the entire building into chaos.
Employees screamed.
Papers flew.
People dropped to the floor.
Others ran blindly toward the exits.
Sophia froze.
Her mind refused to process what was happening.
A second gunshot shattered a glass panel nearby.
The sound snapped her back to reality.
Then she heard Steve again.
"SOPHIA!"
His voice sounded desperate.
Terrified.
The kind of fear she'd never heard from him before.
Not even once.
Sophia turned.
Across the crowded hallway she saw him.
Steve was running toward her.
Ignoring security officers.
Ignoring the danger.
Ignoring everything.
His eyes never left hers.
And suddenly she realized something.
He wasn't protecting himself.
