Page 120 of The Revenge You Seek

Everything is a blur. Nothing makes sense.

I'm vaguely aware of my name being screamed as I take off. I run through her dorm and fly down the stairs in my need to escape.

My entire body trembles as I stumble from the building, colliding with some other students as I run around the corner toward my car.

I hear her voice but I've no idea if it's in my head or if she's actually following me. All I know is that I must leave. I need to get away from her, from the truth, from the pain, from the betrayal, the lies, the deception.

The second I'm in my car, I start the engine and floor the accelerator.

I don't see my surroundings, I don't register the stoplights or the intersections or the other cars.

I just drive.

I know where I'm heading without even thinking about it.

But as I turn the corner before the entrance to Hallie's, I take the corner too wide and end up nose to nose with a truck.

Horns blast and tires squeal before the sound of crumbling metal surrounds me and everything goes black.
