I fought the urge to run up and hug her and instead followed at a distance, careful not to be seen. When I saw her crouched in a corner, looking so hurt, I wanted nothing more than to bring her back home.

I secretly messaged Wendy to come and get Nancy.
It was not until I saw Wendy take her away that I could finally relax. I walked back home, feeling empty.
