I went to the bathroom and hopped in the shower. I washed my hair and squeezed the water out.
Wrapped in a towel, I checked my reflection in the steam-covered mirror. I dried off quickly and secured my hair in the towel to help it dry faster.
I got dressed in a casual outfit, something that would be comfortable for driving around and walking around. As Jared suggested, I put on comfortable shoes.
As I got ready for the day, I couldn’t shake the sense of uncertainty hanging over me. I wanted to believe that my dream was just a dream, but I wasn’t so sure anymore. Hestia’s voice sounded so real and what she said… was terrifying.
And the worst part was, she was still out there lurking around, and I knew exactly what she was after.
Every shadow started to look like her, and I just couldn’t turn off the unease that writhed in my stomach.
Over and over again, I tried to push those thoughts aside and focus on the good things.
