Sarah felt a rush of cold air as she opened her apartment door. She rolled her eyes as she turned the heat up and fussed. “I don’t understand why you insist on turning the heat off when we’re not home.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2LU5DabJK
Chris briskly walked into their apartment carrying a duffel bag on his shoulder and dragging a roll-on suitcase behind him. “What are you fussing about?” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUY7RgJRgc
“Excuse you?” Sarah said taking her coat off and turning to face her husband. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUJqBQ0218
“We’ve haven’t been home even five minutes yet and you’ve complained about something.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBtLvlmoMn
Sarah huffed then replied, “All I said was why do you turn the heat down when we leave?”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYT34LBPFY
“It saves us money.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JOOoyOBcN
“You know how much I dislike the cold.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaF36uHocKf
“I’ll try to remember for next time.” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvsgSvOMbl
Sarah walked into the kitchen and started the kettle. She opened the blinds and marveled at the falling snow as it seemed to cast a shadow over the city’s tall buildings.323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBHaFHqh5Q
“Honey, can you hand me the bag of chips from the cabinet?” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt40gSanzo
Sarah opened the cabinet and was surprised at the scarcity of it. “I’m gonna run to the store and pick up some food.” She said as she handed her husband the bag of chips.323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkgKRnZYUh
“Why don’t you stay at home. I mean-” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Mqp5HJDqY
“I’m a grown woman. I can leave whenever I please.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAP7uE8hNzD
“I just think we’ve had a few long days of vacation and travel. Plus with your sister coming by. Some rest will do you some good.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0SQ3F9l0x
“I’ll be fine.” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7fN4cAGO1
Sarah slipped on her coat and placed her wallet into a pocket on the inside of her coat. “Do you have anything in mind that you want me to pick up?”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMgBoGCX2s
“No, but if you insist on going I’m heading out with you.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsaGoFpuFd
“You have paperwork to catch up on right? And Chris…” Sarah paused and gripped the doorknob of the apartment door then continued “Don’t wait up for me.” Sarah scoffed then slammed the front door. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeq5dMFO8mY

Sarah glanced at her phone to make sure that the train was on the way. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HkZBc7Mb8
“Cold day isn’t it?” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpI5yXFDdQ
Sarah turned to the side as a man in a bright red jacket stood beside her. “Yes, it is.” Sarah then turned back to her phone and browsed through her photos. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD31ISHqsfg
“You’re very photogenic.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rsy84Pg9A
“Uh…thanks,” Sarah replied then took a few steps away from the man. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRg7XXpMAvD
“Where are you going sweet cheeks?”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51CHErnYK4
Sarah frowned as she sighed in relief as the train pulled into the station. She stepped onto the train and sat down at a seat near a window. She then squinted at the reflection as she noticed the man with the red jacket walking over to her. Sarah attempted to place her purse in the spot to block the man, but she wasn’t quick enough. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfWQGuKJz0
“Why did you leave?” The man sat close to Sarah.323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlwce3hrXn
She could smell the alcohol on his breath and it seemed to seep from his clothing. “ Can you go away?” She then shifted her body closer to the window.323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXL7W1H4fK
“I didn’t do anything wrong?”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iuPu79fVz
“Just go please.” Sarah swept her eyes across the train and she was upset that no one was on the train except for them.323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFhC9UQVAw
“I just told you, lady, I’m not doing anything wrong. A little attention from a man won’t hurt you.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuou5n0Xsr8
“Leave me be!” Sarah raised her voice.323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bnvpWiiCh
“Come on. There’s nothing to be afraid of.” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWisQ81HXq2
She felt the man’s hands grasp her shoulders. She pushed him away and he grabbed her wrists. “Stop let me go!” Sarah yelled as she was trapped between the window and the man. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4ioAQlR88
She didn’t notice as the train had pulled into the next station. A passenger went onto their side of the train. “If you don’t let go of her right now I will knock you out until next week.” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzXpDKLzqB
Sarah recognized the voice but didn’t dare look up as she focused on the man’s grip on her wrists. Sarah yelled as the pain worsened. Her hands began to feel numb. She pulled and twisted to try and get away. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwWMuYnyYo
The man who was holding onto her was abruptly yanked away from her and pulled onto the ground. Sarah watched as the man was then handcuffed.323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsuKForkYz
“Who is he?” the man who just helped Sarah questioned.323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDv31GB7C3
“Yeah. Who are you?” Sarah questioned as well as her wrists throbbed with pain. She finally looked up at the man who just rescued her. “David…What are you doing here?” Sarah stuttered as her eyes widened in shock. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmODp0pZTkw
“Going to the precinct and decided to not drive because I don’t want to get stuck in the snow. Why are you here?” David said as he sat the suspect in a seat parallel to Sarah. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMMIL6yEe6
“We don’t have any groceries so I was on my way to pick up some.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSesXW0owif
“I’m surprised Chris didn’t come with you.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBf6E59SxbX
“He offered. I needed time to decompress and wind down.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2YaJZ75yt
“Decompress? You both just got back from vacation.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiq9q29vTNA
“I know…” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17bAfvuvqs
Sarah stayed silent. She didn’t want to spill all her marital problems to her brother. She listened as David then called the precinct to meet them at the next train stop. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC40pjXLztP
“That man.” Sarah pointed to him. “He just started talking to me and he followed me onto the train.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QcqPbF00q
“I know you want me!” The man yelled viscously at Sarah. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4fKjuWn6n
David stood up and dragged the man closer to the train doors and said to him “If you move an inch there will be a problem.” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC3oil8Ddu
Sarah was relieved when the train finally pulled into the next stop. She watched as David quickly handed the suspect over to Detective Adam and Detective Jake who were waiting nearby. She stepped off the train making sure to mind the gap between the train and the platform. 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhLHLng6Wi
“I’ll go with you to the grocery store. Let me just talk to Captain Arie about what happened.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ubwzi1b41
“I’ll be alright.” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Quw6SyyEN
“It doesn’t matter if you want me to or not. I’m joining you.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKDQJRv9y4
“David?” Detective Adam called out.323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvuGQZZr2K
“Yeah.” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybT6XFfzyR
“He has the same tattoo as the others.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ335NbTybQ
“What?” Sarah said as she began to pace and continued mostly to herself “How do they know where I am? Where I’m going and who I’m with?”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeIFcuGOqu
“What’s your name, sir?” David questioned.323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUqnNvQkY6
“I’m not saying a word.” 323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszTSqp72Cv
“I can keep on adding more charges.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fo5lWg9Ld
“Like what?”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJ1vSaaGsg
“Resisting arrest.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKG8w4xgoIl
“I wasn’t resisting.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2SeiXTo2C
“I told you to let go of her multiple times and you didn’t comply with my orders.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUSHZ69oUB
“Alright, alright. My name is Eric Redway.”323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OX9lTRWf0
Sarah shook her head then she leaned against the bright pink wall and closed her eyes. She couldn’t believe this was all happening to her.323Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡju5ew5jFoI
