Chapter 38

It had been another day of no contact, something which despite the conversation she had the previous day with Brown, still filled her with worry. The sensation in the pit of her stomach was telling her something was wrong. She had tried to distract herself, the gym was a brief reprieve, however, as the rain continued to pour outside it only enhanced her already foul mood.

It was mid-afternoon and Cara found herself sat in the common area. The echoes of raindrops against glass windows were the only background noise. Diesel was at her side on the sofa, relishing in the petting Cara was giving when shouts from down the corridor halted her. Cara got up from the sofa, following the anger-filled noise, it was coming from Brown’s office. She reached the door, about to enter, when the door swung open and her dad stormed out. Pushing past her, he didn’t utter a word.
