He starts walking toward me, rolling something between his fingers. A lock pick. Metal clicking softly as he toys with it. I back up instinctively, my shoulders hitting the wall behind me. There's nowhere else to go. My breath comes faster now, chest rising and falling uncontrollably. He stops inches away. Too close. He lifts a hand and drags the cool metal lightly along the side of my arm-not hard, not painful. Just enough to remind me how trapped I am. "You shouldn't be here," he says quietly. My voice shakes-but I force the words out anyway. "You neither." For a moment, he just looks at me. Then he laughs. Low. Brief. Almost impressed. "Fair." I swallow. "Let me go." He studies my face like he's deciding something. Then, slowly, he raises both hands in mock surrender and steps back. "You're free to go." --- Starting over sounds easy-until you're forced to do it in the same place where everything once fell apart.
