Let's Do This

"Be good while I'm gone, otherwise, I might have to....."

Louis left the statement incomplete so that Skylar would fill the gap in her head. He kissed her lips before going out of the house.

As soon as she heard the sound of the door, Skylar threw her head straight on the table. She let out a sigh of relief. A pool of tears accompanied the sigh.

She bit her lips to stop herself from crying loudly. Especially when the guards are watching her keenly.

"Ma'am your tutor is here." Helen's voice made her raise her head abruptly. She glanced in Helen's direction.

Steven's head popped out from behind Helen, and he waved at her. "Hello, Skylar."

Skylar wiped her tears. She got up and excused herself. "I'll be right back."

Skylar tried to run her way up the stairs, but she couldn't. Her legs hurt so much. She could barely move them. Biting her lips, she took the steps slowly as she went up the stairs. She threw herself on the bed and cried her heart out.
