Kapitel 57: Chapter 57: MANCINI

Her voice was small and lost. The words tore at my heart and made me bleed. I snatched her up from the bed and headed for the door.

She didn't ask where we were going, didn't do anything but put her head on my shoulder and her arms around my neck. I could feel the wetness of her tears as they fell against my skin and walked faster to my car, that I'd parked so carelessly.

I folded her into the seat and buckled her in before heading to the driver's side. I got in next to her having no idea where the hell I was going. What was I supposed to do, how do I make this right? I took her cold hand in mine as I drove. I changed direction and headed to the pier, the infamous boat.

She tensed up as soon as she saw the water but I reassured her quickly. "It's okay love, it's all over now." I lifted her hand to my lips as we pulled into the parking lot. I always left the boat stocked and well prepared just in case, but this was the first time it would be needed.
