"Claire?" Tristan call out through the speaker.

"Ye-yeah?" I respond. I'm too scared respond.

"Please be safe." He says and disconnects the call.

I close my eyes and try to drown out the voices that flood my head.

I open the novel and read a paragraph.

"Are you still reading that fucking book?" He asks and I hurriedly close the book and shove it under my pillow before he could open the door.

"N-no." I lie.

He looks at me suspiciously before walking towards me. I flinch but feel no touch on my cheek,neck or stomach.

"Get up!" He commands.

"What?" I stare.

"Get the fuck up Claire. I won't say it again." He grits and I stand up in fear.

I hurriedly get up and he snakes his arm under the only pillow on the bed.

He pulls out the book and I begin to tear up.

He rips the book to shreds before descending onto me.

I feel hits everywhere and I can't even fight back. I just close my eyes and embrace the pain as it comes.

She finally agreed to meet up with me and I didn't even have to beg her.

I get the place ready and by the time I finish,it's almost noon.

It's a good thing I had sent Camille and Lukas to Dylan's house.

"I'll be there in like thirty minutes. Depending on traffic." She says when I pick up the call.
I smile when I hear her voice.

"Sure. I'll be waiting." I respond.

When I get into my car,the first thing I see is a neatly folded note. I frown a bit because I don't remember such a thing being here.

'Hide.'

That's all the intricately designed card says.

What the hell is this?
