Walking.Contradiction: Chapter 30

♦Scruffz’s Pov♦

I was at my house, alone, silent.

Worried.

What about Ryan? I hoped and prayed that he would be alright. He hadn’t let me follow him back to his house for some reason and I didn’t want to get him upset.

“Tianna! Stay back. I can handle this by myself.”
“No, Ryan! I can help you!!”
“You’re only a little kid, Tianna. Please.” Ryan’s death stare with those beautiful brown eyes were all I could take. I slowly backed away and ran to my house – where I was now.

I was thinking about Elori. Had she done it on purpose, the telling to Rihanna where Ryan lived. This was so messed up. I had to save him. But how? I was just  a little kid. I couldn’t do anything. But…call the cops, maybe?

Why hadn’t I thought of it before?

I quickly picked up the cell phone sitting beside my bed and dialed 9-1-1. In a panic, I hurriedly told the police everything I knew, and they told me they’d be at Ryan’s house as soon as possible. I put down the phone.

All I could do was pray that they would get there in time.
