See No Evil

           Jess woke early the next morning.  She peeked out the window and saw a small blood stain where Trevor’s body had been just a few hours before.  She could see her reflection in the window, she looked exhausted.  Her eyes were swollen from crying and she had deep, dark circles under her eyes. “Ugh.” She let the curtain fall back into place.

            The house was quiet; her parents were probably still sleeping.  Trevor’s and her parents were close friends since as long as Jess could remember.  She was thankful for that friendship now.  Her dad had handled all the things needed to get Trevor back to his parents in Colorado.

Jess scribbled a quick note on the fridge;

I love you guys more than anything.

I need my space.

Ill text to let you know I made it home.

I’ll be okay.

Yours always
