Because I'm Watching
“She snuck out once when they were at lunch, to use the restroom, but if they knew she was there, they never acknowledged it.
They left at 7:00 P.M. She raced out to use the restroom again—six hours between potty breaks was too much—then tiptoed out to the living room. She checked the locks to make sure they were secure, heated up a frozen dinner, and then got the highlight of her tense and lonely day; a call from Jacob. He had met Mr. Caron and together they were searching Andrew’s empty home. ...He would call again when he made contact with Andrew, and he asked her to remain at his house. He sounded tired, and worried about her, and although she badly wanted to go home, she promised. She returned to his bedroom, shoved furniture around to block the door, reclined on the bed in her clothes and waited for morning. She slept in increments, jerking herself awake at every creak and groan of the old house, and rose before dawn to shower and change, eat breakfast and work on her story.
