The Betrayal's kiss
As soon as I moved away, the hiccups stopped.
"Thank you," she said softly.
"Yeah..." I replied, feeling awkward.
I took a deep breath. It was time to ask the question that had been bothering me for days.
"Why were they chasing you?" I asked gently.
She looked down at her hands. "I don't know," she whispered. "Maybe I saw something I wasn't supposed to see."
When she looked up at me, her eyes were full of tears. My heart ached for her.
I hated to give her more bad news, but she needed to know. "Your father was buried yesterday," I said carefully. "Along with you. You've been declared dead. If people find out you're alive, you could be arrested for murder."
