Chapter 52 The Talk

Emma POV

I was sitting on the floor in my room with my knees pressed against my chest.

It was hard to breathe. It was hard to stop the tears falling from my eyes.

It was getting really hard keeping Eliza away. She was trying to push through. She was putting a lot of pressure on the barrier, trying to talk to me.

The door opened, and Andrew walked inside.

Shit. I forgot to lock it.

His eyes found me on the floor, and he sighed. He closed the door behind him, walked over, and sat down in front of
