Katie’s Offer
Before we parted, Katie slipped me her number, urging me to reach out if I needed more information. Her sincerity left me unsettled, stirring a confusing mix of emotions. She seemed so open—almost too open—about the entire situation. “I’ll think about it,” I had replied, unsure if I even wanted to dig deeper. While I longed for answers, I couldn’t shake the gnawing fear of unearthing truths I wasn’t prepared to face.

A Call Looming
The call lingered in the back of my mind, though I couldn’t quite decide who to reach out to—or why. Was it details from Katie I was after, or simply the comfort of a friend’s voice to quiet the chaos in my head? “Maybe I should call someone,” I murmured, half to myself. Sarah glanced over, her understanding unspoken. Her presence alone was enough to steady the storm, if only for a little while.
