Chapter 39 Suppressant

• Ashley
• When Marco left, I couldn’t find peace. His voice echoed in my head, over and over again, calling me “Sweetheart,” his smile flashing behind my closed eyes as if haunting me. That word “sweet” sounded different when he said it as if it were meant only for me.
• I didn’t know what to think anymore. My thoughts were in disarray. Why did I see those things? Why did they feel so real? I didn’t leave my room at all. I cried until it grew dark outside. I skipped dinner and eventually cried myself to sleep.
