Chapter 4
Evelyn woke up before the sun had fully risen, the faint light of dawn seeping through the hotel room's heavy curtains.
She blinked a few times, disoriented, before the events of the previous night came rushing back to her.
Derrick lay beside her, his arm draped across her waist, breathing deeply in his sleep. She gently lifted his arm, careful not to wake him, and slipped out of bed
Her clothes lay neatly folded on the dresser. She didn't remember picking them up from the floor but she was glad he did.
She quickly picked them up, dressing in silence. Her heart pounded in her chest as she moved towards the door. She paused, seeing her car key on the table by the door, and hesitated, glancing back at Derrick. He remained asleep, his face peaceful in the dim light.

As she got into the car, she froze. Her phone lay on the passenger seat, its screen glowing with missed notifications.
She picked it up and saw countless missed calls from her parents, Michael, and Sandra. Evelyn's heart sank as she stared at the screen, but she didn't return any of the calls.
