With a police officer right behind them
They looked at Ellas with pure contempt.
***Tanny how your car accident happened the same day Elars got hurt.
Mom and Lyra were convinced I’d been set up, so they’d gone to the police to find the truth.
So what was Ebas so afraid of? Using such a lame excuse to a peek at what really happened.]
Did he really think I could kill myself just to frame Zoca?
The surveillance footage wound, and soon everything
ng became crys
crystal clear
Zora and I were standing by the roadside talking when a motorcycle tame speeding toward us. I pushed Zara mat of the way but got hit myself
bok at Elars.[]
Inodded. Lited my chin to look at
That’s exactly what happened
Zara had come to me saying she wanted to clear the air about her relationship with us so I wouldn’t get the wrong idea.
We talked
and talked but she never made anything clear.
Then that motorcycle came barreling down

Thass face turned absolutely thunderous
“Tara You idiot!” Lyra cried out through her tears

I wanted to wipe away her tears, but my hand

I felt cold run down my spine, every hair standing on end.
What kind of manier was she?
How was she more like a ghost than me?||
The rest played out pretty much as I remembered. I slowly regained conscious to find Zora pretending to be unconscious, so I called 911 ||
Hut because of my head injury. I couldn’t remember anything that had happened before

Zora seed the opportuny to claimd pushed her. Even though I didnt believe I would hurt anyone, with my memary gone. !
Even is the ambulance, uner I looked relatively unharmed compared to her, as thought i was just being manipulative and dismissed me completely
Das went deathly pale.
After all, in his heart, Zora had always been that sweet little girl who needed his protection.
Now suddenly discovering she was a

His voice came out hoarse, his tall frame seeming to shrink as he bowed his head before my mother. “Mrs. Morgan, I swear I will make sure to avenge Elara.
“Avenge
Mom’s gaze was ice–cold, cutting through Elias like a blade
“Who wants that kind of twisted revenge? My daughter will get fair and proper pistice, not someone’s personal vendetta.”
With that, Mom and Lyra turned to bow deeply to the police officers, tears in their eyes]
The officers bowed bark respectfully
They all led out together, leaving only as hidden in the shadows
