Chương 11: Secret revealed pt 1

My gaze flickered around the uninviting wood as I struggled desperately to hold on to my sanity.

I was certain I didn't imagine what I had seen back there. The painful bruise that was now forming on the back of my hand as I had grazed it on the rough wall was a reminder I didn't imagine it.

I panted as I rested my body on one of the tree trunks present. I hadn't even thought of running back to the house which was just a few seconds away because I was so desperate to flee and had forgotten.

My head pounded, as well as my heart as I thought of the baby I had left alone in the basement.

If only I had minded my business and left the whining sound alone.

As this saying goes, ‘curiosity killed the cat’ I was curious and who knows what would happen to me? Perhaps, I would end up like the cat.
