“I knew it” Emma muttered, after Alex had told her about Simon’s visit to Max. “And you’re sure about this Max girl?”
“Positive” Alex nodded, full of himself. “I’ve been following her around” He raised his hands defensively. “I know anda didn’t ask me to, but…I found a few interesting details. She’s definitely a cop, and what’s even lebih important, she’s a Hardy, and Weston hired her to keep an eye on agent Parker”
Emma frowned. “How do anda know all of that?” she asked curious.
“I may have planted a bug on Simon, when he was asleep” Alex shrugged, quasi-innocent. “Simon told Max about our plan for tonight, and then she called Ryan, to tell him. Then Simon was all worried, because if Max was coming after us, she wouldn’t be utama to protect Parker, but Max berkata that if she caught us, she would be protecting Parker”
“I knew it” Emma repeated.
“Actually, anda didn’t know” Alex replied smugly. “I’m the one who warned anda not to tell him about tonight. I’m the one who planted a bug on him. And I’m the one who followed him and his new girlfriend”
“I thought I could trust him” Emma snapped defensive. “I figured after seven months of unsuspicious behavior, he was worthy of trust again. I’m sorry. I’m not perfect”
“So, uh, what are anda going to do about it?” Simon wondered.
“They’ll come for us” Emma realized. She nodded heavily. “And I’ll be waiting for them”
Agnes stood in front of Wayne and Abigail’s house, her hand pressed against her mouth and tears rolling down her cheeks.
“I can’t believe this is happening” she sobbed, while shaking her head as if denying it would change anything.
“We’ll find her” a female cop assured her. “So, anda say anda found him like this?”
Agnes nodded. “The hospital told me these people took my cousin with them. So, I went here to ask them to give her back to me, so I could bring her back to her family, where she belongs”
She paused to blow her nose with the handkerchief the cop had offered her....

“What have anda done?” Abigail shrieked as she stormed inside the room. Debra didn’t bother turning around; she just gazed at Abigail’s reflection.
Abigail touched Deb’s head and when she withdrew them, hair and blood stuck on her fingers, she stared at the them in horror. Shocked she grabbed for the hairbrush, determined to fix Deb’s hair. But truth was there was no fixing it.
Defeated Abigail shook her head. “Clean up your mess” she ordered sad. “Don’t come downstairs. I’ll bring anda your food”
As if in slow motion Deb stood up and bent through her knees to pick up her...

One week later.
Dale was sitting at the meja, jadual in his room. He held a picture of Deb in his hand. A single teardrop fell on it. “Oh, Debra” he sobbed. “Why did anda have to leave? We could’ve had such a beautiful life together”
Beth walked inside from outside the kitchen.
“I made anda some tea” she berkata careful and she put the pinggan down. Not waiting for his reaction atau even a sign of gratitude, she poured him a cup.
“I mean, your sister’s worth nothing” Dale mumbled disgusted, apparently completely unaware of the fact that Beth was standing right beside him and if he did, he...

Simon had no sense of time, but if he could trust his stomach it was long past lunch time. It had been painfully rattling for the last couple of hours, but he knew that if he’d complain Agnes would return and not to feed him.
He had been tossing and turning all night, unable to find a comfortable position to sleep. He probably wasn’t the only one, he imagined. Now that Debra was gone someone had to fulfill Dale’s sexual needs.
Poor Beth, Simon thought, she must feel so abandoned and betrayed.
Though he didn’t hear the door open, he did see how a dim light spread itself throughout the basement....

“You ready?” Simon asked when he closed the door behind Debra.
Debra nodded, grateful that he couldn’t hear her hati, tengah-tengah pounding. She let him take her hand and pull her towards the elevator. Once there he hesitated.
“On saat thought,” he berkata as the elevator opened, “we might want to take the stairs. It’s safer” he decided, alluding on Deb’s fear of small, dark places. He could only imagine that fear had been highly increased due to the baru-baru ini events.
He pulled her towards the stairs and they walked down it. At the bottom Simon checked left and right to make sure no one would...

In the months that followed Debra spent most of her time in the library. She loved to read, as long as it wasn’t anything religious.
During the nights she slept in the park, underneath a willow. That was until the park ranger busted her and chased her away. From that moment on she slept in an alley, seterusnya to a Makanan container. Whenever she got hungry she would dig in the grave and ikan something out. Most of it had already passed the tamat tempoh date, but Debra didn’t care. Makanan was Makanan and she was starving.
One night, she was only in her seventh month, she started having cramps in her stomach....

Hours later Debra was back in her room. Her little sister Beth was fast asleep in the double bed, but Debra was wide awake.
During makan malam, majlis makan malam Dale had been staring at her. She had felt his eyes prying on her. The thought of what he was going to do to her on the night of her birthday, made her sick.
She looked over her shoulder at her sleeping sister. She didn’t want to leave her here, knowing the kind of man that lived here. But she had no choice. Beth wouldn’t want to leave her parents. She wouldn’t understand.
Debra leaned towards Beth and gave her a soft Ciuman on the cheek. Then she stood...

“Damn it, Deb, pick up” Mike berkata agitated.
Debra’s phone was lying on the washing table, buzzing, but the streaming water in the pancuran, pancuran mandian drowned the sound. Debra wasn’t planning on getting ready any time soon. She swore she could still feel the earth on her skin.
“She’s not picking up” Mike berkata nervous. “I’m going to go there”
“To do what?” Ryan protested. “Emma and Joe are shot. They need medical attention. They know they won’t get that from Parker”
Debra stepped out of the pancuran, pancuran mandian and wrapped a towel around her hair. A saat one she wrapped around her body....

An instant later Emma appeared. When she saw Joe lying on the floor, appearing to be dead, she accelerated her steps, while repeatedly mumbling ‘no’ She knelt and turned Joe on his back.
“Joe, wake up. Please, wake up” she begged. “Don’t leave me here”
Joe groaned and opened his eyes. “Dear God, that hurt” he moaned. “What are anda doing here? I told anda not to come until I called you”
“I followed Ryan. It would’ve been two against one. It wouldn’t have been a fair fight. I had to come and help you” Emma explained loyal.
“That’s very thoughtful...

The helicopter landed on an open field in the woods. As soon as it hit the ground, Mike opened the door and jumped right out. He ran to the spot Ryan had telah diberi him the coordinates of. There were no shovels atau anything else that could be useful for that matter.
So he dropped on his knees and started digging.
“Debra!” he shouted while he removed the earth. “Hold on, I’m right here! Just hang on a little bit longer”
After a few lebih minit of digging his hands touched something solid. Agitated he wiped the earth from the box that came in view and along with Turner he opened the coffin....

“Any last words?” Alex asked with a voice of which the malicious pleasure just dripped of. Debra looked up at him, her eyes wide in terror.
“You don’t have to do this” she begged.
“I know I don’t ” Alex replied careless. “Take small breaths” he advised before getting up. As Debra cried and screamed for help he and his partner closed the coffin and buried it underneath the ground.
Everything went quiet. The only sound heard were Debra’s sobs and cries and heavy breaths. She desperately hoped the FBI would find her. Well, they would find her. Just not in time.
“Okay”...

Before Deb could go, she had to return to prison to get her clothes and other artefacts back, like the pokok kalung she’d had ever since she was a child. She hadn’t worn it in years, but she couldn’t quite throw it away. It was the only thing that connected her to her family, and as crappy as her family was, it was still her family.
After she got her stuff back, she went to her cell, where Susan was waiting for her. Susan stood, and walked to Deb. She embraced her tightly.
“I’m so happy for you” Susan sobbed. Her arms still around Deb, she gave her a hard kiss. “You’ll do great...

With Rob out of the picture, and one of Rob’s girls in the witness stand, Deb dared to hope for the first time in a long time.
“Miss Connor, according to your statement anda were acquainted with Robert Lively. Is that correct?” James Hyland asked. Tess nodded. “Please, answer with yes atau no” James said.
“Yes” Tess answered firmly.
“Where did anda meet him?” James asked.
“I was a patient in the clinic he worked at” Tess replied. “I had some family issues and I needed psychiatric help. Rob was my therapist”
“That means anda know my client as well” James motioned at Debra,...

When she opened her eyes, Deb lay in a hospital bed. Rob was sitting beside her, and for a moment Deb thought she was back in the institution.
“What happened?” she asked hoarse.
“You don’t remember?” Rob frowned. Deb shook her head. “What do anda remember?” Rob asked cautiously.
“The last thing I know, is that anda picked me up from the clinic” Deb replied.
Rob sighed and shook his head. “I can’t believe I have to be the one to tell anda this” he mumbled.
Deb’s eyes widened in fear. “Tell me what?” she asked, with a small voice. She wasn’t sure she actually wanted to...

During the rest of the hari Deb was shown around. Christina explained her how to take orders, and where she had to put the dishes.
Soon enough, evening came, and it was time to change her clothes. When Deb was dressed in her waitress costume, the door of the dapur opened, and Rob appeared in the doorway.
He whistled admiring at the sight of her. “Do me a favor, and don’t change after your shift” he said, winking, making Deb blush.
In general the evening went quite well, aside the few broken glasses, and the wine Deb spilled on someone’s white shirt.
Finally, when Deb brought an order to...

Rob parker his car in front of a fancy looking club. He pointed at the big letters under the roof, spelling ‘The Dahlia Dancers’ “They light up in the dark” he informed Deb, and he laughed as he saw Deb’s eyes widen with childlike enthusiasm. “It’s called neon”
“Neon” Deb repeated to herself. “Things that light up in the dark” she added, mentally Penulisan it down.
“Come on, let’s have anda take a look inside” Rob suggested, and he got out of the car. Ever the gentleman, he walked around, and got the door for Deb, and helped her out.
She looked around, and inhaled the...

Deb quickly put on some casual clothes Miranda had telah diberi her, and then stormed out of her room, down the stairs, and outside. She braked, and gasped, when she saw a light grey car parked in front of the clinic. It was sort of wrapped with a white ribbon.
“Do anda like it?”
Deb’s hati, tengah-tengah skipped a beat, and she quickly turned around. Rob was leaning against the wall, his arms crossed, a smirk across his face. In all her eagerness to get out, she hadn’t even noticed him.
She ran towards him, and wrapped her arms around his neck. “I’ve missed anda so much” she nearly cried.
“I missed you...

In the week that passed Debra didn’t say a word to Annabel, atau to anyone else for that matter. Annabel realized she had gone too far with her accusations, but it wasn’t fair of Deb, either, to just simply assume Annabel’s life had been all rainbows and unicorns.
Sure, she had clothes, a katil to sleep in, and food. But she didn’t really have anyone. Before she had learned the truth about her parents, Annabel had made up this picture perfect in her head. Her father was in the army, and her mother was a teacher.
But now that she knew the truth, it was difficult to forget it. “Why did you...

Deb looked confused at Dale.
“I don’t understand. What are we doing here?” she asked, her eyes shifting through the room.
“This will be your new room” Dale explained happily.
“What about Agnes?” Deb asked, slowly.
“She won’t be a problem anymore” Dale smiled reassuring. He walked towards Deb, and took her sejak the shoulders. “I told anda I would take care of it”
He leaned forward, and gave her a soft Ciuman on the lips. “What’s wrong?” he asked, when he let go of her.
“I, uh, I thought I was getting my old room” Deb quickly made up a lie to explain why she looked like...

Three days had passed when Deb was finally released from the hospital room. She hadn’t been allowed any visitors, but Rob had snuck in, and kept her company, every now and then.
With Annabel still in solitary, Deb had a fair chance at finding that picture.
She walked around Annabel’s bed, and knelt. She looked underneath the bed, and pulled Annabel’s bag from underneath it. She stood and put the bag on the bed. She opened it and discovered all sorts of garbage. Flippo’s, candy…
She closed the bag and put it back where she found it. Not many hiding places where left, so she picked up...
