"Yes..."
Natalie was having a very hard time. She didn't know what kind of outcome she would face or what Billy thought about her.
She hadn’t eaten anything all morning. She couldn't eat anything. Moriah didn't ask her to have breakfast o r lunch. And Sarah was also downstairs.
The news was broadcast over and over again on the T V. She felt it so annoying. Her chest was heaving with rage. She just wanted to smash the TV.
However, at the time, she was in an awkward position. She couldn't do anything wrong, and she couldn't explain the matter. She was afraid of giving herself away.
Her phone kept buzzing. She couldn't stand it, so she turned her phone off and threw it aside.
She called Billy from her home landline, but there was no answer. Immediately, she panicked even more.
She had never felt the time was so unbearably slow. She couldn't ease up. She was fidgeting. She stood up, and then she sat down, and after a while, she stood up again.
Just as she was lost in thought, the door was pushed open. Sarah rushed in again. Sarah grabbed her by the
hair and shouted at her, "You better expect you could explain it clearly, or you're going to die on me!"
Natalie said repeatedly that it was a misunderstanding. Then she tried to escape Sarah's grip. The sound of someone talking came from downstairs. It seemed Billy came back.
She could faintly hear Billy talking to Moriah downstairs. At once, she tensed up. She couldn't stop her legs from trembling. Her legs felt weak. She couldn't stand on her feet. She felt her heart was going to jump out of her chest. She was so scared! What should she do?
