Chapter 13
That night. I didn’t go home. I curled up on a hospital bench to sleep through the night.
The next day when I woke up, I was burning up with a fever.
My phone was silent the whole night; Dexter didn’t call even once.
“Ryder…” I called him from the bench. “About that study abroad thing. I’ve made up my mind.”
“Phoebe, do you have a cold?” Ryder’s voice came through, laced with concern.
“Yeah, got caught in the rain yesterday. Feeling a bit under the weather today.”
“Where are you? I’ll drop off some cold medicine,” Ryder was worried.
“If I hand in the application form today, how soon can I leave the country?” I asked with a sense of urgency in my voice.
At that time, I had a premonition that I might not survive if I didn’t leave.
I wanted to live, to get as far away from Dexter as possible.
As long as I left, it would all be over.
“If you apply now, you can get an acceptance letter in two months. I’ll ask the professor to expedite it. Once you get the notice, I’ll buy your plane ticket,” Ryder said, his voice laced with concern. “Is the cold serious? Should I come get you?”
“No need, Ryder… I’m at the hospital. Thank you.”
