I quickly got dressed and headed downstairs. Atlas also woke up and looked at me, but I gestured to him, saying, “Go back to

I wondered who could be at the door and why they pressed the doorbell so frantically early in the morning. It made me uneasy,
and I hoped nothing bad had happened.
Unexpectedly, I saw Grace through the peephole and quickly understood what was happening.
After some thought, I opened the door. Grace hurried in and angrily pushed me aside when she saw me. I could do nothing
besides shaking my head in resignation.

I wasn't trying to scare her. However, I felt conflicted because I didn't want Ava to turn out like the Murphys.
