It was never supposed to happen. It was never the kind of thing that could happen. At least, to her. She didn’t get to get this.
And yet. Sitting there in the hatch of her car on a hot, hot day, she felt her heart beating heavy and fought to focus on putting words on the screen.
I don’t want to admit that I know what this is but I think I might. She wanted to blame the beat in her chest on the fact that she refused to open any windows in her dark car, but didn’t have it in her anymore to lie.
Oh my God, she thought to herself in hot and heavy silence. How did I let it get this far. A knock from outside called her crawling into the cooler heat and hoping the church lights were off, desperately trying to put her unnerving discovery behind her.
