Chapter 8 : Embrace

  Isabelle

  The evening of the next day passed with me waiting for Kaden, I'd expected him to come back but he hadn't yet. There was an awkward emptiness existing within me as if all the particles of my body were craving to see him but he was not here yet.

  Thick opaque clouds were covering the sky and the drizzling rain was there too, the sound of the thunders was permeating an unknown fear as if unlocking the doors of my memories. Today seemed like that night....the same clouds and the darkness as if the monsters would crawl back again to snatch everything from me.

  My breathing became shallower, the tears began blurring my vision as the screams of my mom and dad banged against my ears, The horror-filled eyes of my sister. I covered my ears with my hands, the pure terror that's seeped inside made my heart beat faster.

  I couldn't breathe.

  The thunders got louder and louder.

  The first sob slipped past my lips, the tears now making a mess.
