They were here.
Jones was here and her father was here. They were here just like they were back in Glasgow, in her brother's apartment. They knew that she had met Aiden last night. How long had it been since Jones has been following her last night?
She must not have noticed it in her anxiety but Leah remembered clearly how she kept on grounding back when she was in the taxi. There was no one on the road except for an occasionally passing car. No one had followed them.
Had he realized it later?
What if he had seen her with Aiden? That must be the reason why they were here so instantly?
Leah stayed rooted to her spot and from there, she watched her friend across the distance from the kitchen and disappeared to go towards the door of the apartment.
She couldn't move. Physically or mentally, she stood in the same spot, rooted in fear.
Her hands shocked, she realized that and rubbed her sweaty palms over the clothes she wore.
