Chapter 20: Will Truth Set Him Free?
Rory walked with a little skip in her step wiping the remnant tears in the corners of her eyes. There was a long line of people waiting, and some were asking about the flight she is traveling and she started to worry if she would be able to get the tickets.
The queue moved at the pace of a snail making Rory’s patience dwindle and her anxiousness rise. On top of that, one of the travelers picked up a fight with the employee causing a commotion.
Rory let out a deep breath. The fight got intensified and the security guards in the area interfered and a lot happened. Her head started to throb in pain.
But she endured everything solely thinking of the beautiful scene she saw some time ago.
For Ellie... And for Fizzy...
She told in her heart to gather patience.
The line started to move and Rory let out a sigh of relief. As there was just one person left before she could reach the counter, she received a call. It was from Liam, and her heart skipped a beat as she answered the call.
"Fizzy?"
"Come back, Cherry," his voice sounded distressed.
"Liam?" her voice shook. "Liam, what is it?"
In just a fraction of a second, she imagined a thousand negative circumstances. The happiness vanished and fear filled her heart.
"Come back, immediately," he said and with a small beep, the call ended.
