A/n: Hi guys! I have to apologize, it's been long again since I last updated. I was gone for a vacation with the family. We stayed there for almost two weeks and the place was completely remote. No cellphone signals and an internet connection. So, that's how it was. But don't you worry, I've written a few chapters to make it up to you. I'll upload them one by one. Soon. For now, enjoy this chapter and please don't forget to VOTE and you can also COMMENT. Thank you!

For some reason, Matthew got his car and we've been hitting the road for quite an hour and a half already.
I don't know where we're going.
But the good thing that I'm thankful about as of the moment is that he's steady enough on the road, there's not even a hint of a possibility that we're going to crash anytime soon in another car or cause an accident due to his current state.
His current state is quite troubling if you were to judge him.
Well, as for myself, I've already judged his appearance and he totally looks unkempt.
That's why I'm thankful that he's doing good on the road.
But I don't think that I can endure the ear deafening silence between us for one more second. I cleared my throat.
"Where are we going?" I ask in one smooth way.
He glances at me.
Then back on the road again.
Great.
Why am I here again?
But then, again, I cleared my throat.
Not to speak to him or ask or say anything again, but this time, I shift on my seat and face the window on my side, turning my back away from him.
I don't need him being difficult with me. I'm here to help him, yes. But it doesn't mean that I have to suffer from his moody state.
I should just try to take a nap for now. After all, I don't want to be mad at him or what.
Things won't be good if that'll happen.

"Anna..." hmmm?
"Anna, wake up." hmmwhat?
"We're here..." huh? where...
"Anna..." wait, who's...
"Anna -"
"Oh!" I woke up with a jolt.
"Finally, you're awake -"
"Where are we?" Looking around, all I can see are trees and all I can hear are birds' and insects' chirping.
"On a province." what.
"Province?" The word is foreign in my mouth, not really familiar to my tongue as it rolled out the word. But I know what does it mean.
"Yes."
"And why are we exactly here?"
"Escape."
"Escape?"
"Yes." umm, what does he exactly mean by that?
"Anna..." he stretches his hand towards me and instinctively, I take a step backward.
"I - um, Matthew," alright, how should I put this...
He looks defeated. Totally down.
I should be careful with my words and actions.
