Now that I got hi me now

FOR THE SECOND TIME, I’ who the hell to call Only a few short hours ago, I ondering the sa, but in coo since Ryan attackedhim up to die

Once again, I run through my very short list of options Aoddahable to call a cop I have no other friends or family No one else to turn to Except…

Dialing the nuepathetically on my closet floor, naked and afraid Now I’er defeated

“River?! Oh my God, are you okay?” Alison’s frantic voice fills my ear I smile at her concern Sweet Alison

“I’ “okay” is subjective, I suppose Aured that out yet I was at the ti down the fro to set in a little

But did you die, River? No Can’t say I did

“Where are you? Did he hurt you? Let et myself and ask why While I know Alison endured years of abuse at the hands of Ryan, it didn’t occur to ht for her life

Like I just did

“How about I coest instead I don’t want to spend anotheralone with hts as I process what the hell I just did will only cause a mental breakdown I need to decoure out what hell I’ to do

She pauses, see the option to leave When with Ryan, there’s no options No, no There’s only listening to instructions

“Y-yeah,” she stutters, after leaving the question hang a bit too long die to shock

“I’ll be there soon,” I say, hanging up before she can say or ask anything else I’ve no idea what the hell I’ to ask questions Obviously, she’s going to ask a lot of fucking questions Last ti for her to come save me

Stupid, River

I don’t knohat I was thinking
