Chapter 24: The Painful Truth
Arthur knows the truth.
And like a coward, I just ran away.
I’m definitely facing the consequences of it all now. I can feel the impact of my actions weighing down on me as I stared at my phone’s screen in shock. The panic that welled up inside of me started out as thin tissue, something that my fingers can manage to pierce breathing holes in. However, as time progressed, the panic had transformed into a flood of ice water surrounding every limb, creeping higher until it passed my nose and mouth. I grasped my chest, trying to calm down my fast-paced heartbeat as I took deep, shaky breaths.
What am I going to do now?
From: Arthur
I’m coming to your apartment now. We need to talk.
