CHAPTER 40

  They walk out of the building took a few minutes because of how huge the building is. I wonder if Jake knows what happened.

  I don't think he does, he didn't sound curious when we spoke earlier on the phone. I spotted Jake's car, parked along with other cars. Reaching it, I opened the back door and placed Anne inside.

  Before going over to the passenger's sit. Keep a smiley face, he doesn't have to know what happened.

  He's going to find out either way. Two voices argued in my head. I'm such a burden to Jake. I need to start fighting for myself and stop leaning on Jake.

  "Thanks for coming," I said to Jake. After sitting down. He started the car. "You're always welcome." He replied. Normally, I would have smiled, but the situation right now is so overwhelming.

  I just want to cry. "You don't look okay," Jake said. I looked down, fumbling with my fingers. Tears were threatening to fall down. "Hey, are you okay?"
