(Still Vanessa POV)
After dinner, I told the family I was going for a walk. Since it was still 7:30pm I was allowed to go out with a condition that I would be back in the house by 9:00pm latest. According to Veronica's dad, it's dangerous for a girl to stay out late. I had no problem with the condition since I'll be staying around the house. I just wanted to go for a walk so my food will be digested quickly.
I went to my room to get a thicker cloth, you never can predict the weather and it's better to be safe than sorry. I bade them goodbye and left the house with my earphones in my ears. I was listening to ' Halsey _ without me' as I started walking towards the park. It's was just a twenty to thirty minutes walk from my house so before I knew it I was already there.
I took my seat on the bench there, there were people around so I didn't have to worry about any danger. After I was sure that I had rested enough I called someone on my phone.
