FIFTY NINE

The tense atmosphere of the office made my head spin as l started to feel a bit claustrophobic. Hilden and l were both on the edge of our seats waiting for John to make the make the first move. All the events were carefully orchestrated to catch him off guard and l felt slightly guilty because l could have told him when l found out but l didn't have any proof.

That would have been her word against mine. I could tell Hilden was doing everything in his poor to restrain himself because this is not his fight. Again was still asleep which worried me because she was never a heavy sleeper but the warmth that radiated off of her fathers arms must have provided a comfort she had been longing 

It still felt surreal that she was here with us but l wasn't yet convinced that we were out of danger not yet at least
