Chapter 46

Reeves

"Augh, " I roar through gritted teeth, holding myself from punching a hole through the wall outside Katie's room. I couldn't be more infuriated. How could she do this to her parents? What a selfish, stupid, immature act to pull on bereaved parents who still mourn their first-born's loss. How could she fucking do it to them, to me?

There's a burn of anger whirling in my gut as I prop my arms on the wall and drop my head between them. I need to calm down before facing Beth and Stanley; I promised Katie I wouldn't tell them the truth. I guess the writing was on the wall all along, or maybe reflected from her eyes, the message I was too damn blind to read.
