Disappearance

I wish I hadn't taken my life for granted. It didn't seem so perfect at the time, but now that I look in hindsight, I realize I'd do anything to have it back. All of it. My family, my career, my beautiful home, and my fingerprint. My fingerprint…before April's iron grip. It was a grip that manipulated and pursued me, a grip that forced me to the crossroads I now stand at. Comfort vs. fear, life vs. death, iron grip vs. disappearance. April's trickery has forced me to make a decision that will change what is left of my life forever. I don't know how I'll do it; all I know is that I can't mess up. Things would be different if I were alone. I'm not alone. Nadine's life is worth preserving. At all costs, Nadine's life is worth preserving. There's a lot I don't know about April, but there's nothing April doesn't know about me. I wish I knew where to go. I wish I knew what to do… -Evelyn Holtz
