Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Roxy

I needed to get away from Jason so that I could think clearly. His words and actions are confusing, to say the least, since any kind of real relationship has never been in the works for me. In all the time I’ve been on the run, that’s the one thing I never thought of. In fact, I’ve pretty much resigned myself to the idea of either dying young or spending the rest of my life behind bars after I’ve taken care of everything that I need to.

Today I’d made it halfway there and am now way ahead of schedule. I thought for sure it would take me a much longer time to find Cierra Stone, the one that got away. I told her the bare bones of how I came to know of her, but I didn’t share the fact that she’d become a kind of obsession for me. Or that it was she in a roundabout way that had given me hope of escaping the life that had been foisted upon me.
