Chapter 21. The Shower and My Thoughts

Leah’s POV

I found myself under the shower, allowing the water to wash my tears away. Now no one would know that I had been crying my eyes out just a few minutes ago.

I stood under the hot water for about five minutes before I even moved to get the body wash. The water had already drenched my hair too and I did not really care.

I was just so drained…so tired. I just wanted to go home and put all of this behind me. But now, I was being asked to do something that I could never do even if I wanted to do so.

I would never be able to kill someone, no matter how evil they were. I was not a killer. And I knew what death could do to someone.

I opened the body wash and lathered most of it on my skin. It smelled really good and when I glanced at the body to see which kind it was, I saw that it was pomegranate scented. 

I liked the smell. At least it was one good that was happening right now: showering with a body wash that I liked.
