Chapter 51

Renee was packing Christian's bag to go out. She had started going out by herself more and more. At first, she was cautious when she went out, still worried that this was some sort of trick from Jesse. She would set up an Uber which was charged to Jesse's card. This way he always knew where she was. She started out just window shopping. Then, she would go out for groceries. Today she was going to go to the library. It would be the first time in years she'd gone to one.

It was always so boring in the house just watching TV. Christian was 4 now and liked to look at the picture books she'd bought him. Why not get a library card and get books for both of them? She ordered her Uber and went into the kitchen to pack some snacks for Christian. Once everything was ready, they waited outside. The Uber pulled up and she put the car seat in. Renee was excited about this outing. She loved to read. And the library had computers. Internet that Jesse couldn't trace.
