Faint
Chapter XIX
Courtney's POV:
A tiny bell chimes as o burst through the diner door, and the door shuts with a loud clang, making the waitress and the few customers glance my way. I barely flush under their gaze and my eyes widen as I scan the mostly empty diner.
The waitress gasps at my filthy appearance and rushes to my side, along with the elderly couple seated in one of the booths. As she nears me, the rather frazzled waitress shouts to someone in the back to call the police.
The old woman reaches me first and her eyes widen and begin to water, much to my surprise. She covers her mouth with her hands as her husband comes to her side, his expression equally as shocked as he takes in my horrendous appearance.
The waitress scans me up and down before she simply pulls me into her arms, and I crack. I cry into her shoulder as she comforts me, assuring me that the police are on their way.
After I've calmed down somewhat, the waitress, whose name is Kelly, has seated me across from the elderly couple and gone to make me some tea. They have been surprisingly kind and considerate despite being strangers.
Kelly reruns, smiling softly, "don't you worry hun, the police said they'll be here in no time at all."
I smile appreciatively, "thank you so much."
My gaze travels to the large windows up front and then m breath catches in my throat. In the distance, I can faintly see four large black vehicles approaching the lone diner. The tinted windows and revving engines can be heard miles away, and that's when I know.
Ive been found.
