章節 81: Blurred Lines

There is an echo of a gunshot that is traveling through the barracks.

My heart has come to an abrupt stop, and all I can feel is the suffocation I feel as I cannot breathe.

For a brief moment, I have snapped my eyes closed, but the fear of what I might see when I open them makes me not want to face the scene that has happened in front of me.

I will simply die if I have to open my eyes and see my wife lying on the floor. For one, I don't know what I will do to Caylee, and as for the next, I might just fucking die right there on the floor with Isabella.

But next from the side of me, I hear the voice of Galland, "Clayton! Clayton! Clayton, can you hear me?"

By the tone of his voice, I am trying to understand what has happened without having to open my eyes, but then there is another sound, "Soldier!"

I immediately snap my eyes open.

"Isabella!"

She chuckles softly at me, "Yes, last time I checked. Are you okay, soldier?"
