Jumping From The Penthouse

Realizing Catalina’s fear, Billy attempted to explain. She grabbed Catalina’s hand. A touch surprised Catalina, and she immediately released her hand from Billy’s grasp. She remembered how Billy’s hands could pull out long nails like the devil. Her eyes kept looking forward. She tried to avoid being stared at by Billy.

“Catlin, I’m sorry. Because what I did, then you see something you weren’t supposed to see.”

“Who are you, Billy? What did you do to Derk?”

“Catalina, I would never hurt you. It makes you sad and hurt, so I’m slowly killing myself. I want Derk to know that he can no longer think of you as the past Catalina.”

Throughout the trip, Catalina was silent. Billy’s explanation of hurting Derk was entirely plausible. Although according to Catalina, Billy’s reasons she could not understand. The two of them had just entered the penthouse when Billy grabbed Catalina’s hand and grabbed her.
