She didn't smile. She didn't stare into his dark brown eyes for long. She entered his room. She took the papers from her rucksack and asked him to sign it.

"Oh, you think it would be that easy?" Coto tried to flirt. 

"Senator, just sign the papers please." Kathryn was so nervous she didn't know what to say. She tried to not act scared.

After he signed it, Kathryn thanked him. She took the papers and immediately went for the door. Chip  grabbed her arm. 

"Woah, not so fast. Don't you think I deserve a little something?" He asked.

"My flight is in an hour." Kathryn told him. 

Chip grabbed her purse and set it on the floor. He grabbed both her arms and pushed her against the door.

"Get off of me!" Kathryn was trying to get Coto off of her.

"Oh! I've been dying to do this." Coto was kissing Kathryn's neck and body. 

Kathryn knew this was a horrible idea from the start, but she didn't know what to do. 

Coto stopped and looked at Kathryn. He came closer and started kissing her. He used so much force Kathryn couldn't turn away. 

She thought about John. And Bay and Daphne. And her only son, Toby. She felt so stupid realizing this was a trap. 

Kathryn used her hands to get him off and said,

"Stop! Okay? I'll do 'it.' " She couldn't dare say the word. 

He stepped back and smiled. He went into the bathroom. Kathryn knew this was her chance. She grabbed her purse and immediately left his room. A cab and her luggage were waiting for her in the lobby. She jumped in the cab and left. She took a deep breath and realized what she had done. She touched her lips. For the past twenty-five years, no one has touched her lips except John. She wanted to cry, but she wasn't sad. She was infuriated with herself. She didn't know whether to tell John. He would freak out that I was there in the first place. She received a text saying,

"I can't wait for you to come home! I went to early so I can pick you up!' 

Kathryn smiled. She missed John. She was only gone for a couple days and she missed him. She arrived at the airport, payed the cab driver, and checked in her one luggage. 

When her plane landed, all she could think about was John. Oh how she wanted to just jump into his arms and kiss him. When she thought about kissing him, she immediately remembered what happened previously in the day. She went to Baggage Claim and picked up her Tumi black luggage. It was 7 in the evening. She texted John that she was ready. But then she read his text, and realized she was going to take a cab. Looks like she wasn't going to run into John's arms. She called a cab, and jumped in. 

"Mission Hills, please," she told the driver. 

After ten minutes, they were crossing a light, it was yellow and a semi-truck was crossing. Kathryn turned to look, and the car wasn't stopping. All of a sudden, the truck smashed into the cab. Kathryn flipped over and over. She lay on the cab floor, unconscious. 

Blood was trickling down her head. Ambulances were being notified. The police were on its way, and the Kennish/Vasquez family had no idea, waiting excitedly for her to come home.
