Chantelle stood up and covered her face with her hand, overwhelmed. She had to find a way to open that door. If she didn't do it, she might be standing there when they brought his body back.
Just as panic started to sink in, the door slid open.
She turned and saw Stephanie beside Kane, giving instructions. "Shut the door right after Mommy leaves. Don't open it for anyone, okay?"
Railer looked at her with teary eyes. "You'll bring Daddy back, right?"
"I will." Chantelle walked out without looking back. But before she could take another step, everything went dark. She collapsed.
Kane closed his laptop and rushed to Chantelle. Railer ran after him, looking worried. Only Stephanie stayed calm. "Quick! Help Mommy up," she said.
Railer looked at her and understood right away.
Kane gently picked Chantelle up, tears falling as he moved. He laid her down on the sofa and said, "I'm going to find Uncle Russell. Stay here!"
