The strategy to escape

Abigail returned to her room when Elsa left. She was still looking at the photograph, her heart aching unbearably. She wished to speak with him and inquire whether he had ever loved her.

How could he decide to move on so soon?

She remembered him mourning Alison's death for two years. She was aware that he had only recently developed feelings for her. But he could have waited a few months before deciding to move on.

This notion also proved that he never loved her, but her heart was not ready to believe that. She still wanted to hear him say that she was the only one he loved.

"Why, Christopher? Why are you doing this? Did you forget about all the times we spent together?" Drop by drop, tears spilled on the newspaper.

Abigail was desperate to talk to him. She wanted to confront him. But it was not possible if she stayed locked in this house.
