Never Going Back

3 Months Later

Paisley couldn't decide whether each day was getting easier or harder. Each day was so misleading and consuming. For the last three months she's waited on that phone call to tell her he's been caught, and everyday it never comes. She jumps every time the phone rings and cringes at every sound she hears.

Finally, the wait was over. *ring ring* "...Hello?" Paisley said trembling. "Paisley?" Edwards spoke. "Yes, this is her." "I have excellent news for you. We think we've found the man who did it. We need you to come back home and identify him. You'll be back down for a couple of weeks. I'll let you know if anything changes." Edwards said proudly. "When will you need me to come back?" She anticipates the answer. "Immediately. If it's no trouble." His deep voice seemed to trail off. "It's no problem. Have a good day sir." With that they hung up.

So many things raced through her head all at once. She could barely keep up with the conversations buzzing in her head. She was nervous and anxious all at the same time. She would get to see her parents. She'd get to see some old friends. In that time period everything would be okay until that moment strikes.
