章節 24: Chapter 24

Skylar's POV

After weighing the pros and cons for the umpteenth time, I eventually decided to meet up with Blake.

I didn't message him before leaving my house, because that was highly unnecessary. I just got out of my house few hours before midnight, locked the doors behind me, and ventured off into the creepy dark streets behind my house.

Nobody would even know that I was leaving at such an hour, especially not my parents since they were once again all busy with their work lives. And for the first time, I was glad for that. I didn't want to handle their questions on top of everything.

But what if I didn't make it back?

Even though it was the most foolish thing, I was still holding onto Blake's stupid promise. He was the last person I should be trusting at this moment, but desperate times call for desperate measures.

All in all, I was just desperate.
