*Knox*Marin and I stop for a moment as though we had not just heard the familiar voice we were looking for, Tessa. Her words carry feelings of fright as she asks.“Tessa?” Marin calls out after the odd silence. “It's me, Marin.”Marin walks into the open room that we were walking towards, and I walk behind her, not entering at the same instant as she.They hug tightly, and she says, Wes went to get us something to eat outside. He said it's not so far from here. He didn't take his car because we don't want people knowing that we are in here. He should be back in no time.”Marin sits calmly next to Tessa and says, “Don't you think Knox will be so worried looking for you?” Her voice shakes. I know she fears how Tessa will react when she realizes that she brought me here.“I don't care what happens to him. I'd rather my dad sends him away too. I thought he cared about me, but it's obvious he's just like the rest, and worse, he's like my brother. Always controlling and never listening.”
