My chest caught every breath. My lip was split. I wasn't new to this. It wasn't my first time to be beaten. And it sure as hell wasn't my first time being here. But this was the first time Aaron was being the one to pass judgement. I sucked on the split. My lip burner as I tasted iron. Minutes passed. Hours even. I had no idea.

It wasn't just a copy, it was exactly the same. How did this get here? She puzzled over the familiar book, glimpses of a childhood she couldn't remember slipping into her mind. An old folded note tucked right in the middle of the book caught her attention, and she gently unfolded it. Somehow, she was sure she was meant to find the note.
