PIERCE
Nothing in my home looked the way it should. Katy never lived here, but I caught her sneaking into the laundry room window at least twice a week. I offered her a key once, for her safety, but she’d never used it, even though it went missing from the counter where I left it with a note telling her to take it. Now realizing I would never get the chance to catch her in my space again, I wanted to keep her and everyone else out forever. The doors were currently locked along with the windows. An empty house greeted me every time I entered.
Things needed to change. The place had always been too big of a home for me to live in by myself. With the recent developments, now was the time to leave Pelican Bay. Start fresh somewhere new. I found the thought despairing rather than exciting, but I needed to get used to it.
