Chapter 42: Two Faced

Kieran's POV

I couldn't believe my ears. No matter how hard I tried to convince myself that I hadn't just heard what I had, it still didn't work. But somehow, even after hearing it, and clearly too, I still refused to believe it. I couldn't. There was no way I could. Why would I in the first place? Because it didn't sound like her, at all. It didn't sound like Sabrina at all.

Perhaps my mind was playing a trick on me. I'd been stressed, mentally especially, and it would be no surprise if it had gotten to the point where I was hearing things and making up scenarios in my head.

That was probably what just happened. Because I knew Sabrina, and there was no way she would have said that. Right?

The more I asked myself that question, the more anxiety swirled in the pit of my belly. I couldn't help but feel like I already knew the answer, but for some strange reason, I just couldn't bring myself to answer it.
