Jared walked to the door, ready to swing it open.

His hand had already grazed the doorknob.

Agnes‘ thoughts came to a screeching halt, she had probably never been this nervous. It felt like she was standing on the edge of a cliff, with one foot already over the line.

His hand stopped in its tracks.

Agnes leaned against the door, slamming it shut.

A sigh of relief escaped her lips as the door closed.
