Mine Alone のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 6

CHAPTER TWO"I-it’s my dad… he called to check in."My breath became unsteady and noisy. My eyes were begging God on my behalf, silent because they were too teary and pitiful to speak.Tyler bent over, picked up my phone, and scrolled through it."Evans, do you have something to say to me? Because I think now is the right time. And as a matter of fact, why would you call an unknown number 'Dad'?" he asked nonchalantly, his eyes still fixed on the screen."I-I was called by a record label for some stupid audition. I didn’t consent, of course, not without your permission." It was the most desperate lie I had ever told.His jaw tightened, and his face lit up with rage. I could feel the heat radiating from him, as I stood there, naked and dripping with water."You know the one thing I hate most is you lying to me."He began moving toward me quietly, his fists clenched as if ready to pounce."Please Tyler, I didn’t lie to you!

I had been pacing everywhere with my phone, waiting for another call from the police, or perhaps from Evans, or even for the spark of an idea of whom to call.Exhausted, I had slumped into this position in the sitting room. Before the wall clock could tick again, I had fallen into a deep sleep.I convinced myself that I wasn’t worried about Evans being missing.
