Chapter 79
Tears start in my eyes now. I open my mouth to speak but she interrupts me again.
“Don’t do that, little cousin,” she says, giving me a broad smile, wincing when it pulls at the cut on her lip. “I’m all right – just like I said – I’m getting out of here.”
“So that’s real?” I ask, wiping the tears from beneath my eyes. “You’re really my cousin?”
“Sure,” she says, putting a hand on my cheek. “I knew you the instant I saw you in that kitchen downstairs – knew you were our little baby Fay.”
I bite my lip against my emotions then, struggling to keep from crying. My cousin here, all this time, taking care of me and I didn’t know.
—
“But he…he didn’t know?” I ask.
She shakes her head at me.
“Were you – were you spy-”
“Don’t ask questions, Fay,” she says seriously. “That you don’t
want to know the answer to.”

I snap my mouth shut, not really knowing, now, whether or not I
want to know. I think I do but-
“Listen, baby,” she says, reaching into the pocket of her jeans. “I need you to do something for me. As family.”
She produces a little note, pushing it into my hand. I stare down at
- it.
“I need you to get this to your dad,” she says quietly.
“To–to Alden?” I ask, looking up at her again, surprised.
“No, Fay,” she says, pursing her lips sarcastically. “I want you to take it to David, your other dad.” My eyes search her face as she hits me, jokingly, upside the head. “Don’t be stupid. Of course to Alden.”
“Fiona…” I say, my eyes widening. “I don’t know if I can – that’s so dangerous. If Kent –”
“Please, baby,” she says, true pleading in her eyes. “I know what I’m asking you to do, and I wouldn’t ask it if it wasn’t so important. I promise you, I promise – no one you love will be hurt by you doing this. Okay?”
I bite my lip, considering it. Fiona backs away from me, leaving the note in my hand.

“I’m going to leave it with you,” she says. “And if you want to flush the note down the toilet, Fay, I understand. I’ll be disappointed,” she gives me a stern, sisterly look then, “but I will understand.
Please.”
She puts her hands together like she’s praying and backs towards
the door.
“Fiona,” I whisper, “please, stay – just tell me what’s going on –”
“I have to go baby,” she whispers, her hand on the knob now. “He
–
– he doesn’t know I got out. They’re going to come looking for me.”
My eyes go wide at that I hadn’t considered that she’d be a prisoner –
My god, what did she do?
And what did he do to her for her transgressions?
“I love you, Fay,” Fiona says, pressing her hand to her heart and looking at me with real affection in her eyes. “I’ll see you again sometime – I promise. But now I have to go.”
She blows me a kiss and slips out the door, closing it behind her.
