Chapter 3
256 Words
My mind concocted different scenarios in which Anna could get hurt. I gently touched her cheek and saw her flinch.
"Anna? What happened? Were you hurt?", I asked, softly, holding her hand.
She fiddled with the hem of her dress, something she used to never do, and looked at me.
"Uhm, it's stupid, I fell down the stairs", she nervously laughed.
I narrowed my eyes, not completely believing her. She would've told me if she fell, right. I brushed it off, not wanting to push her more.
"Let me guess. Here to watch movies?", she asked, eyeing the snacks I bought on the way.
My lips broke into a smile as I dumped all the junk on the couch. In a few moments, we were giggling as we opened the bag of chips while flipping through the movies. I honestly needed it with everything happening so fast.

It was late at night. I could stay back at Anna's for the night. However, a part of me wanted to see him around. Would he be there lurking around the streets? Is he hurt again?
I brushed off all the thoughts and decided to stay with Anna. Somebody needs to be there with her to help her with the mild injuries. The injuries that I believe she blatantly lied about. I decided to ask her about it once again.
I apologize for the short chapter, peeps. A lot has been happening with the pandemic around. I'll surely update long chapters daily from now on.
With love,
Sam
