Gathering The Documents For My Escape
Clothing was important, but I needed the paperwork that would make my escape possible. I left the bedroom and entered my messy home office across the hall.
Papers were stacked high on the desk, but I knew exactly where to look. I pulled open the top drawer and retrieved my passport and the travel itinerary I had booked days ago.
Holding the blue booklet felt like holding the key to my freedom.
