Chapter 26 – Bella POV

We leave at night.

Not because it’s dramatic.

Because Lena says movement in daylight is “too easy to track,” and she says it like she’s done this kind of disappearing before.

I don’t ask her what she means by that.

I just pack what she tells me to pack.

Which isn’t much.

A bag.

Two changes of clothes.

The folded letter.

That’s the only thing I refuse to leave behind.

Lena notices, of course.

She always notices everything.

But she doesn’t comment.

That’s the part that unse

    The paper trembles in my hands like it’s alive.That’s the first thing I notice.Not what it says.Not who it’s from.Just the fact that it feels like it’s breathing with me.Lena is still in the room, but she doesn’t speak. I can feel her watching me the way you watch someone standing too close to the edge of something high. Like one wrong move and everything breaks.I unfold it slowly.Too slowly.My fingers don’t feel like they belong to me anymore.The handwriting hits me first.Not the words.The handwriting.Sharp. Uneven in places. Like someone wrote it too fast, like they were trying to keep up with their own thoughts.And then I see the name.Ethan.My stomach drops so hard I almost laugh.Because of course it’s him.Of course it’s him.I don’t even realize I’m reading until I’m already halfway through.Bella.If you’re reading this, then you’re alive.I pause.My throat tightens instantly.Alive.Like there was ever a version of me that wasn’t supposed to be.I glance at Len

    Bella POVThe message didn’t leave me alone.It kept looping in my head like something broken that refused to shut off.Someone’s been asking about you.Every time I tried to focus on anything else, it came back louder.Like it knew I was trying to ignore it.Like it wanted me to.I was still standing by the window when the knock came.I didn’t even flinch this time.That scared me more than anything else.Lena opened the door before I could even say anything, like she owned the concept of timing itself. She always did that—like she knew what was about to happen before the world even decided it.But this time, she didn’t walk in alone.A man followed her.And the second he stepped inside, something inside my chest tightened so fast it felt like my body recognized him before my mind did.I didn’t like that.I didn’t like that at all.I took a step back without thinking.“No,” I said immediately, even though I didn’t know what I was saying no to yet. “I don’t know him.”The man stopped

    Bella POVThe room looked the same.White walls. Soft lighting that never fully turned off. A bed that was too comfortable to feel real, like it had been designed for people who weren’t supposed to stay long enough to get used to it.But Bella woke up anyway.And this time, there was no scream waiting in her throat.She blinked slowly, staring at the ceiling as if it might change if she looked long enough. Her body felt heavy in a different way than before. Not the weight of panic, not the crushing pressure of memories forcing their way in. Just… stillness.That was what confused her the most.Stillness.Her fingers curled slightly into the blanket.“Why does it feel wrong to wake up without pain?” she whispered to herself, like the sentence might answer back.For a moment, she just lay there listening to the quiet. No footsteps running. No distant shouting. No Ethan’s voice cutting through her thoughts like it used to—soft, then sharp, then gone.Gone.Her chest tightened at the thou

    Bella POVThe suitcase felt heavier than it should have as I walked down the quiet stone path that led away from the house, but I knew the weight wasn’t really coming from the clothes and books packed inside it; the heaviness came from everything I was leaving behind, everything that had once been

    Bella POVThe sky was gray the morning I left the hospital.It had been raining since the night before, and the drizzle still hadn’t stopped. The rain was soft and quiet, like the world itself didn’t want to make too much noise.I stood in the small cemetery behind the hospital, holding a tiny wood

    Bella POVWhen I woke up, the first thing I noticed was the smell.Hospitals always had the same strange smell, a mix of medicine, antiseptic, and something cold that made the air feel lifeless. It was the kind of smell that made you feel like nothing warm or happy could exist in a place like this.
