VOLUME TWO: SHAME

Candice

1 year ago

I rush through the parking lot to find my car. My heart is beating a million beats per minute. Please don't let her be hurt. Please don't let her be hurt. The last five minutes of my life come rushing back to me in fragments.

Fire at Roxy's Café….

Ambulance is on the way….

We can't find her Candy…

I hop in my old beat up 97' cherry red mustang, jam the key in the ignition and rush out of the hospital parking lot. I make the thirty-minute drive in ten minutes. I can see all the fire trucks and ambulances in the café parking lot. Once I park my car I run out and run right up to the yellow tape a police officer has just finished setting up. He stops me before I can make it any further.

"Ma'am I need you to stay back. Fire department is not done surveying the damage yet."
