Chapter 502

• Four months later…
• “Hey,” I answered my phone. I was standing in line at the grocery store waiting to pay and I wondered what she’d forgotten this time. It had happened a few times and two weeks earlier, she’d actually phoned me three times while I was doing the grocery shopping.
• For the past four months, I hadn’t really let her out of my sight. It wasn’t paranoia, but guilt. I hadn’t left Seward and when I had to leave the house, the alarm system was on and my phone was open on the camera app that I checked every few seconds.
