Chapter 184: The Skeletons IV
Present day. Spindlewood
Sam stepped out of her rented car, and stood before her late parent’s Cabin in Spindlewood, sporting a pair of hiking boots, jeans and a black shirt under her coat.
Well, what’s left of it anyway.
Burnt wreckage that stood out of the green leafy forests.
She leaned to the side of the car, her hands shaking as memories of that wretched night played in her mind so clearly---together with the muffled cries of both her mother and father, the footsteps, the sound of skin slapping against skin, all of which was taunting her.
She could feel her heart pounding against her chest, and took note of her breathing, fast and shallow.
’Calm down’ she coached herself and thought that perhaps going alone was a terrible idea. Maybe, she should have told him.
Levi.
But that’s too late now.
Sam started walking towards it, what remains of the once luxurious cabin, were its foundation and the charred floors.
Sam clenched her jaw and balled her fists. She took a deep breath and exhaled, the doubt in her eyes turned to determination, and she took a step forward. Another followed, till finally, she found herself walking through the familiar halls, making her way towards her room where it all began.
And where it ended.
