The Price Of Trust
I couldn’t even breathe.
Suddenly, silence fell. Then Cynthia let out a scream—not just any scream, but a sound so raw, so broken, that it sent chills through my veins
She was crying.
Cynthia never cries, she's fearless. Cynthia is the kind of person who stares at death in the face and doesn’t even blink. But now? She was sobbing—screaming through her tears as she fired round after round
My heart pounded violently against my ribs. Whatever had broken her like this, whatever had made her cry out, was big enough, terrifying enough, to completely destroy me.
