But now the necklace was covered in Vickyâs blood.
It was stained a deep red, still warm from her touch.
âKeep going north.
Donât give up.
Maybe thereâs still hope
Before she could finish her sentence, Vicky slowly closed her eyes and lowered her outstretched hand.
I fell silent.
A wave of grief washed over my entire being, and tears could not stop falling off my eyes.
I lost someone who was as important to me as my mother.
Vicky would no âlonger be there for me.
âThey were headed that way! Come on! Hurry up!â
Leonelâs cold voice sounded from not far away, pulling me out of grief and back to reality.
If I didnât leave now, I would be captured soon.
I gritted my teeth and quickly wiped away my tears
Without Vicky, I could only rely on myself.
I carefully tucked Vickyâs body into the trunk of the car and fled to the north before they found me.
Unfortunately, the rain stopped at this time.
It didnât take long before Leonelâs men tracked me down.
Desperate and at a loss, I ran into the nearest bar
Leonel followed my scent to that bar.
I ran around the bar like a madwoman.
Vickyâs blood had stained my clothes, rendering me a horrific sight to behold.
The people in the bar screamed in horror.
I ran so fast that I accidentally knocked down a stack of wine bottles on the bar counter.

A symphony of clatters and glass breaking sounded as the wine bottles smashed onto the floor.
The bar erupted into chaos, but Leonelâs men managed to surround me, leaving me no chance to escape.
âHelp! Help me, please!â Seeing Leonel approaching me like the grim reaper, I turned to the onlookers for help.
âHeâs going to kill me! Please help me!â
The music in the bar suddenly stopped, and everyoneâs attention was on us.
Leonel noticed the tension in the air.
He quickly raised his head and said loudly, âThis woman is a traitor.
Weâre taking her back for her trial.
â
There was a threatening undertone in his words.
Punishing traitors was reasonable.
No one dared to come forward to help me; they even made a path for Leonel to approach me.
My heart was filled with despair.
âPlease, help me⦠Anyoneâ¦â
No one moved, but all eyes were on us.
