SECRETS Vol. 4
Page 7
Just as I decide to get up, the floorboard outside the bathroom door creaks. Instinctively, I tense. My eyes widen as my pulse jumps up into heart attack territory. I stare at the space between the bottom of the door and the floor—there’s a shadow. Someone is standing there.
I don’t move. I don’t breathe. I sit there in the soapy water waiting for Em to knock. It has to be her. It has to be. But in my gut, I know it’s not. The hairs on the back of my neck are all standing on end. Every inch of my forearms is prickled with bumps. My throat goes dry. It feels like I should scream, but I can’t. I can’t blink, I can’t swallow. I just stare at the shadow and shiver. The sound of a hand resting on the doorknob echoes through my ears.
I’m waiting for something to make sense, waiting for Emma’s voice, but it never comes.
