CHAPTER 30: Blinded by Love

  Rachel burst into John's room with her face etched with worry and urgency. John was sitting beside Isabelle in her room comforting her. John sensing her distress as she drusted in quickly rose from his seat and approached her with his eyes filled with concern.

  Rachel burst into John's room with an urgent tone.

  "John, I need to speak with you now!" she exclaimed, her voice echoing off the walls.

  John, sensing the gravity of the situation, quickly rose from his seat with his eyes locked onto Rachel's worried face.

  "What's wrong, Rachel?" he asked, his voice calm and soothing. But Rachel didn't respond, her pace quickening as she led John down the hallway. John's long strides easily kept up with her with his mind racing with possibilities.

  "I just need you, that's all!" Rachel exclaimed.

  Isabelle's curiosity filled her mind but with John's gaze.

  "I'll be right back Isabelle" he whispered.
